I think that if you get supportive faculty, half of your academic journey is smooth and it's the truth, the faculty at the university is also really good. They are not just teachers, they are mentors. They guide students with everything, from cracking interviews to choosing the right career path. The mentorship at CU is also something worth talking about. One mentor takes care of only a few students. So, every student gets proper attention. They help in studies, give tips for exams, help in time management, and even guide for resumes, internships, and job options. Some mentors even have industry work experience, so they tell how real jobs work. They also help students gain confidence, improve soft skills, and get ready for the workplace, but at CGC, the faculty members are so rude and do not even have the proper knowledge of subjects.

Journalism at Chandigarh University is not just theory. The campus has radio and TV studios where students practice like real media people. The community radio station Radio Punjab 90.0 is run on campus. Students take part in shows, discussions, and local issues programs. For video, there is a professional TV studio with a Production Control Room. Here, students learn news reading, video mixing, and recording shows. Along with this, there are live media projects where students create their own content for campus digital channels and magazines. Photo walks, trips, and field visits are part of the course to make students comfortable in real reporting work. In the last semester, internships and industry training help connect students with media houses. All this makes the course more practical and skill-based, giving students good exposure.

It is a smart choice to take admission in Chandigarh University for CSE with IBM Data and Analytics. This four year programme is made for the rising need of data experts in IT. The course helps students to understand data Science concepts and use them for solving business problems.

Here, students learn data analysis, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. They also practice how to work with large data sets and help companies take better decisions. The programme is more on practical side, with real projects and training. Experts from IBM guide the students, so they stay updated with new tools and trends.

Why is this programme special?

• Tie-up with IBM

• Practical and project based study

• Focus on data analytics

• Learning new age technologies

• Good placement options with companies like Microsoft, IBM, SAP Labs, and HP

Though the university is recognised as a top institution in engineering education, and with quite a uptake with regards to placements, there have been efforts, and keep on putting efforts, by the university, to connect students with such prestigious employers within the country and around the globe. 

Some of the multinational companies that throw lucrative packages include Hewlett Packard, Google, Microsoft, Accenture, Deloitte, Amazon, IBM, and SAP Labs, Samsung, Reliance Industries and Godrej, among a large list of MNCs that recruit students from the university. It has a fairly large number of placements and some very good packages as well, one student securing an astonishing international package of Rs. 1.7 crore rupees, while domestic offers have also nicely crossed the impressive figure of Rs. 54.75 Lacs per annum. These are indicative not only of the quality of education and skills gained, but also of the successful collaborations built with the topmost companies.

The placement of the cloud computing course at Chandigarh University is really very amazing. The highest offer in the course is of  Rs. 52.11 lakh for the global financial technology and professional services company Charter Global, followed by Arcesium with an offer of Rs. 36 lakh while the highest offer from global e-commerce multinational Amazon was Rs. 31.77 lakh for the CSE/IT Engineering branch. Tech giants like Microsoft, IBM, SAP Labs, and Hewlett Packard visited CU and recruited over 2030 CSE/IT engineering students. The world's number one IT giant, Microsoft, has been selecting students from the Computer Science and IT Engineering stream for the last three years, while the number of selections has increased three times and reached 15. India's leading IT company, Wipro, took 394 students, followed by Capgemini with 217 students, Mindtree with 101 students, while global IT giant IBM also selected a record number of 196 engineering students, which is the highest at any campus in North India.

For BE CSE with Artificial Intelligence at Chandigarh University, the placement record has shown very positive results. Every year, well-known recruiters from India and abroad hire students in large numbers.

Students have got chances with firms like Microsoft, Amazon, IBM, HP, Capgemini, and many others. Some companies have offered packages above 30 LPA, while many service companies also hired in bulk. This mix gives opportunities for students who want high-end roles and also for those looking for steady IT jobs. The AI specialisation is in trend, so more recruiters are now preferring this branch. The number of selections has gone up in the last few years, and many students have been placed in good IT and AI-based roles. The placement record is consistent and gives wide choices to graduates.

Recruiter companies that come for CSE placements at CU span across big tech, software services, analytics, and emerging start-ups. Examples include Microsoft, Amazon, Intel, and Samsung R&D. There are also firms focused on big data, cloud computing, and AI/ML that take students from specialised tracks. Companies similar to KPIT, Juspay, Axtria feature roles in data engineering, business intelligence, and software development. For infrastructure and systems roles, companies offering internships through IBM, labs for planning analytics, big data technologies etc., also participate. Overall, the list of visitors includes both MNCs and tech firms with strong product and service lines. This diversity helps students get multiple options in tech, development, cybersecurity, and analytics.

At Chandigarh University, programming is part of daily life for many students. The culture is such that you see teamwork, coding practice, and sharing of ideas very often. It is not only about theory classes but also about hands-on learning through labs and projects. Students take part in hackathons and other coding events that keep the interest alive. The university also tries to connect with industry so that students know about current tools and trends. There are chances for exposure to new languages, frameworks, and real-world style problems. With these elements, the programming atmosphere here stays encouraging for anyone who wants to begin or grow in this field.

Not only the best, civil engineering at CU is bestest .At the civil department, there are amazing labs for material testing hydraulics, and structural engineering, students get to do experienment and learn things with their hands.It is not just theory.The teachers are experienced.They teach well and also bring experts  from industry. These experts share real life knowledge about big projects. This helps students understand how things work outside the classroom. The faculty members also told me that they had partnerships with big companies like Everest Industries and Glass Academy because of these, students get to work on actual projects. They see how construction happens in real life . This make learning much better.
