The location of our campus is excellent and helpful.

Placements: My college placement offers were excellent. Every year, many students get jobs in various reputed companies through campus interviews. Companies such as TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Google, Amazon, and some famous ones visit. Every year, about 88% of students get a job with a good salary from the campus. The maximum package is 27 LPA, the starting package is approximately 5.5 LPA, and the average package is 17.5 LPA.

Infrastructure: Our college infrastructure was incredibly good. The best part was that we didn’t have to worry about following our partners because the hostels were on the college campus. The quality of the mess was better than in other colleges. They provided food at breakfast and lunch every day. Wi-Fi access for student research was also provided.

Faculty: Teachers at this college were the best mentors I have ever had in my life. They were very friendly, down-to-earth, always supportive, and provided clear explanations of every situation. Many industrial visits were arranged so that students could gain real-time experience. We had good management.

Review of Indian Academy School of Management Studies.

Placements: The placement of my college is quite satisfying as compared to other colleges in the city. The core focus of job placement programs is to help students find employment in their field of academic study. Typically led by a faculty member, career counseling. The companies that visit our college for recruitment are Toyota, IBM, Cognizant, Tata Consultancy, and other recruiters across the country. Also, training sessions are conducted to get selected for on-campus placement. However, the highest package that has been offered to date is 6 LPA, and the average package of 3 LPA for various posts.

Infrastructure: About the hostel, there are separate boys and girls hostel, for the girls it is quite nice but not so good for the boys. The boy's hostel consists of more than 20 rooms, it's a 3-floor building with a mess hall. If it's sharing there will be a maximum of 3 people. No outside are allowed inside the hostel. It's being guarded securely by a warden.

Faculty: Teachers of the college are very good and they are very honest and dedicated to their work and also they conduct different activities for the students To improve their studies as well as their skills. Some teachers are not qualified and intelligent in the subject. Most of the faculty are good in their language subjects. The exam structure is satisfactory. There are two internal exams before the final exam of the semester. But these two internals have only a week gap in between so it's pretty hectic to prepare. The course curriculum is very good and the faculty manage to complete the syllabus also they manage to conduct revisions through internal exams.

College provides scholarships and good job options.

Placements: About 83% of students got jobs in top companies like HP, Dell, Microsoft, etc. Chandigarh University campus was famous for its on-campus facilities in hospitality and tourism management and aviation hotels. Finally, I got an on-campus job at Ralson India Limited in Ludhiana during my final semester of MBA. I work there as a sales and marketing manager.

Infrastructure: My campus was clean and well-maintained. Every classroom was well organized, and there were clean labs. Our library had a large selection of national and foreign books. Moreover, teachers of the hostel were well-equipped to accommodate the students. Our college's healthy food was available in the canteen.

Faculty: All our faculty members and staffs were very helpful and friendly. They were only experienced and knowledgeable people in my major and at the university. Education was essential for industry to be prepared. The semester exams were not very difficult as our teachers were very well educated. Libraries were available at my college so that most of the students could appear for the semester exams.
