What Students Say
Likes
- Infrastructure: college infrastructure is very nice, specially the newly constructed blocks. It gives you the perfect aura that you are in a good college wit a wonderful and green campus.
- Student complain handling system is quiet fast and efficient. You do not need to run to the administrative block for evry query. More than half of your problems can be solved my ujst emailing your concern to the required department.
- Hostels: hostels are quiet nice andc hilled place to live, they provide excellent room services, good and healthy food, spacious green space for evening wwalks, and multiple stores for all your needs.
Dislikes
- Teachers qualification: teachers are very underqualified. They are as ignorant about some subjects as the students. They neither know the basic and advance concepts nor do they know the check the exams paper.
- Clubs: universityhas a lot of lubs related to dance, music, theatre, oratory but hardly anything happens in them. They are just on papers, they rarely oraginse any events or workshops and don't even have a proper formal whatsapp group.
- Too many students: all the university's rich and vibrant infrastructure gets lost in the overly crowded swarm of students. During recess and at dismissals evert lane of the college gets filled with the swarm of people.
Course Curriculum Overview
I choose Computer Science because thats the obvious choice of almost all enginering aspirants plus CSE offers most empolyability. In Chandigarh University, the faculty student ratio is around 1:55. However the faculty are mostly underqualified. In college offers very latest syllabus with subjects like Machine Learning, AI, cloud computing, IoT etc but the faculty itself are as noob as the students.
Internships Opportunities
Internships are majorly provided during the placements as the companies visiting campus for hiring first offer an internship post for either 6 months or a year and then give you the PPO. The average stipend during an internship is around 25,000 per month. However, students are free to do any 2-month internship on their own during semester breaks.
Placement Experience
You will be eligible for college placements right from the 6th semester. A lot of companies visit campus every year. Last year the total number of companies visited was about 750. Good companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Bosh, Deloitte, Nokia, Autodesk, Bank of America, Qualcomm, and HP visit the campus. The highest package every year goes to around 35 LPA and the average package is around 5.5 - 6 LPA. The percentage of students placed is around 82% to 87%. However, do remember that there is a very tough competition in campus placements as the number of students is very high.
Fees and Financial Aid
The fees increase every year for the freshers. Although the hike percentage is not that high the administration does not spare any student if he/she fails to pay the fee before the deadline. Although there are concessions for students having education loan cases. One good thing is that college offers a lot of scholarships if you have good scores in 12th and JEE mains and advanced. 50% in some of the cases.
Campus Life
The annual fest is called the CU Fest and it's a 2-day event and has a lot of events and competitions. TEKATHON is the tech fest of CU and is conducted usually from September to October. You will find a lot of journals and course-related books in the library. The University has a lot of libraries spanning across the campus. Classrooms are quite basic but well ventilated and almost all classrooms are equipped with a projector. Computer labs are great as they have ACs and the PCs are also high end i.e. min 8 GB RAM and i7 processors. The college has a lot of clubs like literary clubs, dance clubs, music clubs, etc. but hardly anything happens in it. Instead, I would recommend you to join the CSE dept clubs like Google Scholar club, IEEE, CSI, Alexa developer community etc. as they organise more events.
Admission
I took admission during covid lockdown so the admission process was quite simple. They were taking admission mainly on the basis of the 12th percentage. Although they did take an entrance test named CUCAT (Chandigarh University Common Admission Test) it was very easy and the question level was pre-mains.
