Placement Experience

Chandigarh University boasts a robust placement record with a significant number of companies visiting the campus each year to recruit students across various disciplines. Students typically become eligible for campus placements from the 6th semester of their course. This allows students to acquire the necessary skills and knowledge before entering the job market. Chandigarh University attracts a wide range of companies spanning different sectors. With over 900 companies visiting the campus, the university has made around 9124 offers to students. The highest package offered at Chandigarh University can be as high as 1.7 crores (for international placements), showcasing the potential for lucrative career opportunities. Additionally, the average package offered by 304 companies provides a solid foundation for students starting their careers with 90% placement record. My plan is to take on-campus placement

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee structure varied from course to course and my fees in the 2021 batch were 90,000 per semester and 2000 in examination fees. As such I am not aware of any fee increase policy but yes every freshman year fees get increased. The fee for the 2024 batch is 135700/- INR + 2500 Examination Fee + 2000 Security. I got a 40% Scholarship Personally by taking the CUCET exam. So my fee is 54000 Semester fee and 2500 examination fee. there are many scholarships present Chandigarh University Common Entrance Test (CUCET) based on performance, Post Graduate Scholarship for Professional Courses for SC/ST, JEE mains based scholarship, CAT based, Sports, defense and many more scholarships according to percentile, marks, and eligibility. No, I haven't taken any campus employment yet but there are opportunities in different sectors like IEEE, CSI, CU Marketing Team, Cu event Team, and Teaching Assistant Stipend.

Campus Life

4

Campus life at Chandigarh University is lit. The infrastructure is good, every block has its library and 2 central libraries where you can go and study, read novels, newspapers and the Labs are also good with the latest models also here we have many company-oriented labs like Oracle, Virtusa and IBM many more. There are tuck shops at every corner of the university for mid-day cravings. there are many events held in the university where many celebrities visit, EDM nights, and Tashan Nites, CU fest is the main annual event where there are many events departments and also tech fest where every department shows their own technical aspects. The books in the library have a vast range and journals are also available for this we have a mechanism on CUIMS where we can check the availability of books. The classrooms have projectors, whiteboards, AC's and speakers for projectors. Yes, there so many student groups which are solely maintained and run by students like shunya club, orators club etc.

Admission

The admission process was smooth actually. The university consultants help you with every question and problem you are getting at ease from your home. Also Application process was easy because you had to apply on their official site www.cuchd.in which is very much maintained and the paperwork was smooth. The entrance test I gave was CUCET, the Common Entrance Test. This test is actually for the scholarship which aids your fees per semester. The aspect which I didn't like was the fees for the CUCET exam. 1. The Eligibility Criteria for My course was 60% aggregate in Class 12th. 2. There is a one-stop solution for each question i.e.www.cuchd.in 3. Yes, there are a few reservations are there PG scholarships for SC/ST, Merit Scholarships, Scholarship for wards of defence personnel, Kalpana Chawala scholarships for Girls from Weaker Sections and many more 4. 2 hourly exams, 1 Mid Sem Practical, 1 Final Theory and 1 Final Practical. 5. So far I have nothing

Placement Experience:

Placements are not that good. Although companies come, there is a lack of mass recruiters or reputed organizations. One has to grind hard here for placements. If you're a CS student, you will have to face immense competition here. As for core branches, placements are severely dry. Students gets eligible in 4th year onwards for placements. Some of recruiters here are Trident, TCS, Reliance, Sonalika and other few. Every company offers around 10-15 selected students for a job. Highest package ever was 15LPA and average is 3.2LPA. Percentage placed is only around 15% here. My plans after the degree are to apply for govt exams.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The interest in coding influenced me to choose this subject and course. The curriculum gets me ready for a 9-5 job which kind of gets hectic. The teachers could maybe schedule classes to give the students time to study what they want to and if they wish to do a course outside the university they have the time to do so rather than just going by the university curriculum
