Dislikes

Some Faculty Members Do Not Teach Well So They Need To Work On It

Course Curriculum Overview

I am currently pursuing engineering in Electronics and communication engineering from this college. I chose this course because there was no seat vacant in CSE/IT and ECE is a very good career option to go through And even I got seats in both ECE and CSE in vit vellore, kiit Bhubaneshwar, mait, msit, tpiet. but the bank do not provide me with an education loan and asked for a very huge amount of mortgage against the loan my family's condition is not so well therefore I chose this college. faculties are good faculty: student ratio is also good(1:16) faculties are very well qualified and their teaching method is also good. Term exams are not so difficult to pass.

Class Size: 100Course Fees: INR 66500 per year

Internships Opportunities

college provide internship to the students. The internship percentage on campus is somewhere around 70% and students get eligible from the 7th semester to grab the internship on campus otherwise they can grab it from off-campus as well.

Placement Experience

3.5

The placement of the college is quite good. The college offers very good placement opportunities to their students. The highest package offered last year was around 45lpa and the average was around 6lpa. Placement is somewhere around 90%.

Fees and Financial Aid

When I took admitted to this college the fees for the course were very normal and the hostel fees were also very normal but this year there is a 25% fee hike observed in both college and hostel fees. For getting the details of the scholarship contact the college counsellor because I don't know about it.

Campus Life

3.5

Life on the campus is just good. A fest name Privartan gets organised in the month of December it is a fest of total 2 days. there are many clubs present in the college and it provides many opportunities to each and every one.

Hostel Facilities

Hostel facility is good.You can get registered for the hostel at the time of your admission. There are many PG nearby the collge in a very nominal fees. Meal quality is average menu of the mess is very versatile.

Hostel Fee: INR 130000 per year

Admission

The admission process is quite very simple in this college you just need to visit the college's official website once for getting information about the college and that's it after this the admission counsellors of the college will get in touch with you and will clear your all doubt regarding admission process the counsellor will behave very friendly so get clear your all doubt at that time. CSE: passed 10+2 with 75% marks ECE: passed 10+2 with 70% marks ME: passed 10+2 with 65%marks no reservation benefits provided

The placemnets in the university starts from the 3 year only. companies comes in the 3rd year, students= can give interviews in this year, and they can get the NOC. wich means you can go for the job or the iinternship and there is no need to take the classes, because you are taking the indyustry level experience in the prior basis also.

Likes

Events are more frequent here and most of the stars from punjabi industry are called more often for film promotions
No ragging is there infact seniors are friendly and try to help juniors
TPP (training and placement program) is provided that help students to crack placements

Dislikes

Attendance criteria (minimum 75 % is essential to maintain to be eligible to give exams)
Class timings are fixed from 9:15 to 4:35 and you can not enter in between 10 to 12:00 PM as gates are closed for this duration
Strength is rapidly increasing as new courses are introduced which increases competition during placements

Placement Experience:

Placements are decent, from 6th semester students become eligible for campus placement students need to enroll in TPP(Training and placement program) in order to get eligible for campus placement, Many companies visit our campus for eg Capgemini, LNT, ZSCALER, EDIFECS, AMAZON, PWC, WATCHGUARD TECHNOLOGIES etc overall above 200 offerrs are made to our senior batch with the highest package of 32LPA and average package of around 4.5LPA. more than 60% of students get placed . I am also sitting for campus placement and wish to get placed soon

College Life is Fun, Various activities and events happen in and around college, you got to know about others and crowd is also decent, Mostly Students are from northern regions that is Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand .
Teachers are good and placement coordinators also help students to get good package on campus. a decent package can be bagged by a student if he/she seriously study and obtain a decent CGPA in exam. Make sure you clear all exams till 8th semester.
Infrastructure Is also good, laboratories are fitted with new desktops and campus size is also decent, Tuck shops and various Canteens are available inside the campus. Also Central Library is there inside the campus where students can study in exam t

Dislikes

The curriculum for 1st and 2nd semester is purely based on subjects that you studied in 11th and 12th, the advance versions of those topics are there in 1st and 2nd semester which make it difficult for students to get good grades.
The placement in other branches like Mechanical, electrical is mere, and one can face difficult in getting on campus placement if he/she belongs to these streams. Also Lack of practical knowledge is there in these streams, Theory is more focused.
If one opt for hostels, then the hostel facilities are not as good as it should be , the mess food is pathetic and one can face difficulty if he/she opt for hostel, also campartively hostel fees are also very high, whereas nearby Pg's are cheaper

Placement Experience:

placement is good in our college. Aveage package is 400000, and average package for cse stream is approx 500000. Various companies like alstom, infosys, accenture, TCS, Wipro, amazon, Walmart, JP Morgan chase and co. etc visit campus every year and recruit students. Approx 300+ companies visit campus and above 80% of cse students are placed but In other streams like ECE.EE and ME etc placements are campartively lower and students face difficulty in order to get placed. MY plan is job oriented i also want to get placed on campus and hope so i will get placed in a good company.

Life at CGC Landran

So honestly, I chose CGC Landran mainly because it felt like the most “value for money + safe placement option” out of the colleges I applied to , I had applied to Chandigarh University, Chitkara, Rayat Bahra, and a couple of govt colleges through JEE counseling, and I actually got confirmed admission in CU and Rayat Bahra too, but CGC felt more balanced in terms of fees, crowd, hostel vibe and overall campus life. CU was too crowded and felt a bit like a “factory”, and Chitkara was way too expensive for me, plus their strictness is next-level. I did get rejected from one govt college because my JEE rank wasn’t good enough (my percentile was okay but not that great, only 89%ile), so cutoffs didn’t work in my favour there — basically I messed up my Maths paper. CGC’s admission process was pretty chill: you need to have passed 12th with PCM and a decent percentage, and they accept both JEE Main and non-JEE (direct merit) admissions; most students join through direct merit because JEE cutoff here isn’t very high. Cutoff is not fixed but usually if you have around 70%+ in boards, you’ll get CSE easily in early rounds. The overall admission experience was smooth — counseling, document verification, paying the initial amount, and that’s it. For me, CGC just felt like the right mix of academics, placements, and affordability, so I picked it over the others without overthinking too much....Read More
