Great faculty, good exposure, and good infrastructure. If you get in, enjoy your life to the fullest

Placements: Panjab University does not offer placements for students in undergrad programs but provides a few placements in Masters and Ph.D. programs in various colleges and companies. You can give exams to get placements in several institutes, and study material is all available in libraries that are open 24 hours a day (the main library).

Infrastructure: Departments have been built for a very long time, so it's an old building, but they are managed well. Some hostels are not so good, and the food is not good, but some are very well maintained. The canteen food is good, and the student center (STU-C) is known for its quality of food.

Faculty: The faculty is very helpful and qualified, and they are understanding and mostly available in the department. Exams are moderate, and everything is taught in class. The passing percentage is 40%. Everything is explained well in classes, and if you study well, it's not difficult to score good marks.

Other: PU is a well-known university and a great place for exposure, and these will be the moments to remember for a lifetime.

Panjab University- popular but in need of funding.

Placements: My course did not have a placement policy involved in it, though it opened up gates for doing Masters' in Chemistry I. e. further studies. This course also provided opportunity to go into the chemical industries sector, but None of my classmates went ahead for that.

Infrastructure: The department infrastructure was average at best as the building is very old. The labs though were fully equipped and functional. Classrooms had proper sitting furniture and fans. The department library was small but taken care of properly. As far as hostels are concerned, the hostel buildings are as old as the university itself and therefore a little beat up. The rooms are very small- just enough for 2 beds. The hostel canteen provided good food.

Faculty: The faculty was very knowledgeable and helpful. The course curriculum was good and made a proper base for further studies in Chemistry. Though it does not make students industry ready and it has a rather theoretical approach instead of being pragmatic. The semester exams were fine- not too difficult or easy. 40% was the pass percentage.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest in Chemistry. As the pandemic hit just after the start of my 3rd semester, it completely threw me off my studies. I wish I had utilized that time for online classes more. PU fests are very popular and are organized with great enthusiasm. I loved the events which brought together students from all the departments. The campus is very spacious and breathy.

Answered 6 years ago

Your scores are not bad and hence there are some chances for you to get admission. Since the competition is too high, it is difficult to say with assurance. Hence, you may try your best at the time of admission. All the best.
