What Students Say

Likes

Campus life is good big campus and cafeteria is also too good
Regular fests and events , many celebrities come here and perform, lot of exposure
Diversity of students studying here from many countries so it's very much exciting to interact with them too

Dislikes

Big campus but there is too much students..
Very hustle and bustle is there lot of students are there
Attendance criteria, 75% attendance in each subject is mandatory,if not there is fine of 11k per subject or be detained

Course Curriculum Overview

Academics is very good in my 1st sem I have subjects like python ,autocad ,semiconductors ,c language, Disruptive technology, mathematics communication skills and in second semester I have subjects like mathematics, c++ , workshop technology, engineering physics etc. so there are two mid sem exams and one end sem exam together with practicals not that much difficult but the student who have difficulty in learning english understanding english can feel difficulty there

Class Size: 74Course Fees: INR 240000 per year

Placement Experience

I don't know much about placements but I can tell you as per behalf of my brother who is in final year of btech cse he says that there is as per expected placements there is only a average package of 4lacs in BTech because there is a large amount of students are there so companies are limited and students are more so competition is real

Fees and Financial Aid

So I take admission in Chandigarh University in 2023 and I am paying 1 lakh 20 thousand per semester as only academics fees for btech cse branch and there is an increment of fees every year by 10k but I have to pay the amount 1 lakh 20 and this increment is for freshers who are admitted in 2024 so they will pay 1.20lacs + 10% for exam my seniors who are in 4th year they are paying 90k approx per semester and there is a 2.5k examination fee per semester and one time 2.5k security fee for whole degree and there is scholarship on basis of Jee mains and CUET (university exam) so I personally scored 70%ile in jee so there is low scholarship on this percentile so I decided to give cuet exam which cost me 1k rs and it is completely online in nature , i scored 84 marks and get the 50% scholarship, I give this exam totally with the help of chatgpt and ai tools.

Campus Life

In term of campus this university deserves 4.5stars ..out of 5 such a beautiful campus life very eye catching there are too many cafeteria and all varieties of food like North South Indian there are many franchises like dominos etc. and regular fests and events are there like tashan nites and many more , many celebrities are coming like in every month or in two months so there is a lot of enjoyment in fests parties , Classroom are air conditioned ,labs too I am not that much indulge in sports so I have no idea about this Social internship is there I am doing in last June and there is ncc, gd is also there

Admission

After getting such a low score in cbse board and jee mains, i have only one choice that is private university, my brother is already there so I prefer to come here , although my brother is not willing because cu doesn't give a well ROI but there no other choice for me so I decided bad over worse ... Let's talk about Eligibility criteria= there is a eligibility criteria that you are 60% in board ( telling for btech cse only) that's it

Faculty

Faculty members are very nice very humble in nature, each class have 2 CR from students and 1 mentor from teacher , mentors are very co operative very educated and friendly in nature , even my hod is very good, teachers are deep into giving the knowledge they have , infrastructure is very good , labs are very nice too

Night Life

As I am not a hosteller so I have no idea about night life of campus , i am day scholar and night life as a day scholar is very nice because tricity chandigarh is only 18kms far from that university so I enjoyed a lot

A honest review about NIET(fees, internship,faculties,placements,and everything you need to know before joining)

Likes

The quality of study is very appreciable. As our syllabus is very updated. Also the practical knowledge in colleges very good as well.
New buildings for 1st year as to prevent ragging is a very plus point. This prevent first year student from ragging and also give them a very friendly and good environment as well.
The placements are very good as in terms of quantity and quality as well many many companies came here and also many big companies which do not come in any other colleges in greater Noida also come in NIET.

Dislikes

The one thing I decide is high requirement of attendance which is 85% attendance by this criteria we get less time in fore hours kill enhancement and learning other things.
Also the coding culture is quite not good for 1st year as well so this thing also I don't like.
The other thing I don't like is that the assignments pressure was quite high in semester one and very very much assignments was given to our branches as well.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for setting in the campus placements is from 6 semester. And for internships the students become eligible from 4th semester and the internship is mandatory for every student. The companies visiting the college are quite in number. The highest placements which was offered during the ongoing placement is 44 lpa. And the average packages for company and profiles of a days 7 to 8 LP. The percentage of students getting placements are very good as 80 to 90% students are getting placed. My plans after getting the degree is to get the highest placement

one of the best things about iiit Lucknow is the senior junior culture senior 8 January approachable and helpful
IIIT Lucknow has developed are reputation for its coding culture competitive programming open source project and hackettrons are deeply immediate
another unique aspect is the gender ratio which is the round one girl for every 2.5 poise compared to take institute is relatively balanced and healthy

Dislikes

compare to other reputed College Lucknow does not have very vibrant fest culture there are fewer culture music
hostel life has its advantages but the dormitories system from 2nd year onward is a big negative for many living with 8 to 12 student
most of faculty members simply come to class 11 lecture and their leave without much interest in melting student or classifying doubts

Placement Experience:

student are eligible for internship from second year and for job placement i think its from 3rd year highest is 1.45crpa avg 33lpa median is 26lpa this year around 201 from 209 get placement to that make around 96 %

Inside Experience of my Time in University

Likes

I really liked learning in the Electrical Workshop. The Smithy Shop and the Welding Shop were my favourites. The Faculty there, were truly very enthusiastic and not stressful. The Electrical Workshop helps us to learn the hands on skills, of labour.
I liked the Cultural Fiesta, which is an Annual Event, where different Artistic, Technical and Sport Activities were prevalent. My favourites were Jam, Debate, Artwork, Basketball, Skits and Corner Plays, Creative Writing Sessions, Onstage activities
I liked the beautiful diversity and greenery of my University, different departments, crossing one another, everyone is friendly with one another. No unnecessary mess, during the class sessions, and there were not any such restrictions while we skip.

Dislikes

I did not like the high fees structure, which surrounded with our Course, as Btech is a vast expanded course, that requires more practical skill mastery, rather than theoretical study. I think the fees structure must be revised for deserving students
The Faculty were pretty knowledgeable, but I guess they did not put their knowledge into full action. Only a few Teachers focused upon enlightening the students with profitable learning. The use of resources and knowledge is indeed must for such.
In comparision to the high fees structure, I realised that the internship and campus placement opportunities were not adequate, to amass all the departments and their students. A Company Campus Pool is not something for both Commerce and Engineering

Placement Experience:

Placements are both on and off-campus based. Placements are usually common for both IT and Non-IT students, Technical or Non-Technical. Students become eligible, in their final years to pursue internships or acquire placements. Usually students from Computer Science and Engineering avail more placement opportunities. The Medical Department have more options of Employability. Companies like HCL, Byju's, Extramarks, IBM and other local companies like Stambh Power Systems, Pieinfocomm and others have arrived. But the placement ratio needs to be increased. Off-Campus Placements are more successful. Highest Package can be 8lpa CTC to average package be 2.5lpa CTC, with profiles of assistance and associates. Atleast 30% students get placed on average. My plans are based on Learning in different ways.

College friends only there is not a single thing that college will provide you to like about it.

Dislikes

College infrastructure and no one is serious about placement
TPO and Director behaviour they are totally unable to make your future bright

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would like to inform uh that electronic and communication is a very good trade to choose. So many carreer opportunities if you will go in in industrial area, or in government sector. Make some connections with ur seniors others it is tough to enter in industry for freshers.
