Remarks

College tries to make money at every step and keep changing rules to make more money.(eg. fails students to make money in re evaluation process). Improper management and notification system. They change datesheets even during examinations and notices are generally displayed before half an hour to be physically present for even serious issues like re evaluation. College being autonomous they have lots of power that they use not to make students future but to spoil it.Lots of partiality at every step between punjabi and outsiders.Even the director has serious criminal charges against women check it yourself. Sikh dominated so you cannot stand against anyone who is sikh and or punjabi even if he is doing something wrong. No one cooperates or listens to you. You are just an ATM for them.

Entrance Preview

You will see good ranking in papers but reality is different. And if you are an outsider then don't take admission here and if you are not sikh then god bless you, you are gonna see worst college life one can have. Pros: 1. Aicte, ugc, nba accredited. 2. Good ranking to show off others. Cons:Reservation (for rurals, for gill donors, for sikh caste) makes you spend your graduation years with dumbs.

Course Curriculum Overview

0.5

You will have to attend atleast 75% classes and it is so difficult when teacher doesn't know his subject and you will feel like being in some low grade school. And if you do not attend 75% classes then you will be detained without warning ( you will not find your roll no. in examination) and in next attempt you will have to give rs. 5000 per subject (again money making scheme).

Placement Experience

0.5

No Placement (in my batch only 8 students got placed out of 240 i.e. only around 3%.

Exam Structure

Do not give internal marks if you don't lick their or if you don't have influential contacts like someone in SGPC. Evaluation of answer sheets is not done properly. External exam sheets are also checked in college since college is autonomous. This is supposed to be done by hiding the names and roll no. of students so there is no partiality but faculty can see the names of students and then evaluation done is biased.

Faculty

0.5

Faculty makes you learn from stupid and arrogant teachers that are good for nothing.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I particularly liked my minor degree in Electronics and Communication engineer which is cover more on the modern Computer hardware concepts . Suggestion as overall faculty can introduce one course each semester as elective which student can learn apart from that branch.

The campus has good labs, a library, and facilities that support students academic development.

More personalized mentorship and regular career guidance sessions would help student prepare for their future carees.
more internship opportunities would further improve students professional growth.

the CSE curriculum covers relevant subjects and provides a good foundation programming and computer science. It prepares students for futher studies and careers, through more industry-based projects and practical learning would be bemigficial.

Chandigarh University the best university

Likes

college life of Chandigarh university is so good, all the events do happen .
teachers are so experienced and they are so supportive in here.
the placements in this university are great, all the big tech companies do visit while placements and provide jobs to the deserved students.

Dislikes

All the online courses should be reduced.
nothing is there in the university that is to dislike.
majority of the things are all good in our university.

Placement Experience:

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.

A TOUR TO CGC LANDRAN

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.

Review about my college

For taking admission in this college you can take admission on the basis of your board exam marks. You can get admission if you have minimum 40% marks in your board exam as well. For taking admission in CSE or IT branch you should have atleast 85% or more marks scored in your board exam. If you are from home state you might get reservation benefit. In this college 85% seats are reserved for home state students and rest 15% for other students as well as for home state. Previosly this college was taking admission on the basis of you JEE rank but after it changes it admission policies and now it is taking on the basis of 12 boards marks only....Read More
