CU's on-campus recruitment for CSE students is quite favourable. The university has equipped students with labs, project work, and IBM-sponsored certifications, which help them during the hiring process. Because CSE with specialisations (like Data Science, AI/ML, Cloud) is offered, recruiters often target students who have exposure to the latest tools and technologies. The placement cell organises mock interviews, coding boot camps, and resume review sessions to help students become more confident. Student batches are large, giving recruiters multiple candidates to choose from.

Also, CU's engineering wing being ranked 31 in NIRF 2025 helps in drawing attention. On the drive days, companies tend to visit in good numbers. The process typically includes aptitude, coding or technical tests, and then interviews. Many students get offers through these campus drives.

Chandigarh University works together with IBM for engineering courses, and this makes the programme get noticed. Since IBM is part of creating the curriculum, it includes new subjects like Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Cloud, and Cyber Security. Students do not only study, they also do practice through labs, training, and projects. Certification from IBM is one more part which adds weight in a resume. Over the years, graduates from these courses have found jobs in software companies, showing industry does consider them. The credibility comes from mix of modern teaching, projects in new tech areas, and exposure to industry-linked learning. Such things make the programme a good choice for students who want to prepare for future IT trends.

CSE is a broad field and in Chandigarh University it comes in many shapes. The core B.E. Computer Science is the base. Then there are options with focus like Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Cyber Security, Cloud, IoT, and Data Science.
