Getting into BBA LLB at Chandigarh University is striaghtforward. First, you need 10+2 with 55% or more in any stream. Then you can appear for CUCET, which not only decides your admission but also gives schalorships. For instance, high scorers can get their tution fully waived, while others get partial discounts. If you do't take CUCET, CU also consider yours 12th marks for admission. After this, you fill the online form, upload your marksheet and ID documents, and pay the fee after scholarships. Once the university checks everything, your seat is confirmed. It's simple, and with scholarships available, it makes studying law much more affordable for many students.

Getting an 8+ CGPA in CSE looks tough but it is not if you keep a balance. The system is simple. Marks come from both internal and external exams. If you attend classes, do assignments, and prepare for midterms, half of the work is done. The rest depends on final exams.
In CSE, subjects are a mix of coding, theory, and projects. If you keep studying a little every day, it becomes easy. Consistency matters more than late-night study before an exam. Teachers also explain in detail, so listening in class saves time. Many students target an 8 CGPA and reach it because the evaluation is fair.

The main point is regular practice, not running after last-minute notes. If you follow lectures, revise weekly, and solve past papers, an 8+ CGPA is very much possible. It needs discipline, not genius.

It mostly depends on personal interest in choosing the branch. Chandigarh University has in place the most popular CSE (General), which has all the basics of Computer Science and advanced topics like AI, IoT, and cloud. This ensures good clarity concerning available career options after graduation. 

Specialized branches might probably be beneficial if already interested, for example, CSE-MC for anyone passionate about developing mobile applications alongside software interfaces. Another is IoT, which is best for quite a number who lean more towards smart devices, sensors, and technologies of future advancement. But IT is to CSE what an applied computing strand is to a regular computing strand, bearing more on networking. 

So, if you happen to be confused, go with CSE (General); however, if at all you have a clear passion for a field like IoT or Mobile, then choose specialization. Both ways, the university provides good exposure and training.

Talking admission at Chandigarh University for B.E. in CSE is one the best decisions you will take. The university has always been a student's first choice and it has always been a dream for every student to be at the university. CSE programme is globally accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) and the National Board of Accreditation (NBA). The department also has modern facilities and labs like Visual Studios, AutoCAD Software and database management systems that make learning fun and practical. The placements are also very amazing because big MNCs like Google, Amazon, Accenture, IMB, Microsoft, etc. visit the campus to hire students and offer very high packages. Hostel life at the university is also one the best. Trust me, hostels at CU are made to feel like home, just with more study vibes. You get your own space with a bed, study desk, and storage, plus 24x7 security. Boys and girls have separate hostels and everything is well-managed.

This concern is common among most engineering students: getting placed after engineering. And computer Science placements at Chandigarh University are indeed reputed for the huge number of recruiters that come to campus. As a matter of fact, this year's placement season registered over 3750 selections for engineers. And a healthy portion of this number came from CSE and IT. Massive amounts of hiring were done by heavy IT brands like Microsoft, IBM, HP, SAP Labs, and Wipro. Some students also bagged international roles with high salaries. Such statistics only show how hot Computer Science at CU is becoming. The presence of such big recruiters demonstrates trust in students as well as in the training system.

Placement Statistics of CU on the whole.

CU had 9,124 in the engineering placement drives (batch 2023-24) and other programs.


In 2024-25, the engineering companies that took part in the placement season are more than 240.


Core-companies visiting on Mechanical and allied branches have been on the increase too.


Specifics of Mechanical Engineering.

Mechanical is lower than CSE / ECE in terms of average median / average package. As an example in 2023, constitutional data indicates:

Branch Median/Average Package
Mechanical Engineering Rs 4 LPA (median)


Good performers also have higher offers. In the Mechanical division, the following are recent best packages reported: 11 LPA (Energy Exemplar India).

, 10 LPA (High Radius) 
Chandigarh University
, ~7-8 LPA for many core roles.


There are cases of Rs 3 LPA as the lowest packages of mechanical can. 


Recruiters & Types of Roles

Mechanical Engineering students are recruited into core / manufacturing companies and big companies in the related disciplines. A few of the companies quoted: Ashok Leyland, Yamaha Motors, Alstom Transport etc.


The positions are apparently mostly in design, manufacturing, R&D support, quality, etc., core engineering positions can be found, particularly with good project / academic credentials.


Facilities & Support

CU purports to have contemporary laboratories, fine facilities, and equipment such as CNC, simulator software, etc. in the hands of Mechanical undergraduates. These assist students to be industry-enabled.

Internships and industry tie-ups are also emphasized upon.

What the Data says in Aerospace / Related Branches at CU.

Placement Rate & Recruiters

Chandigarh University boasted of 50 plus companies in Mechanical, Automobile and Aerospace Engineering in the placement drive of batches 202425.


It also reports that more than 94 percent of students in these branches (Mech/Auto/Aero) got jobs during campus placements.


Top and average salary (CTC) Numbers.

Most recent placement drives had a top domestic engineering package university-wide of about RS 54.75 LPA. 


But in the case of Mechanical, Automobile and Aerospace Engineering in particular the maximum package that has been reported in one of the more recent drives was 11.5 LPA.
The Wire

In earlier data or student reviews, specifically in the aerospace case, we can find references to aerospace having the highest price of - -14-15 LPA, average of -6-7 LPA (or less in certain reviews) based on batch and eligibility.
Shiksha

Student Feedback & Realities

It has been reviewed that in one aerospace batch, 10-15 students were placed in a batch of 60 (which appears to be low, but could be due to eligibility, performance or company demands).
Shiksha

There are internships that can be done and some of them are related to organisations. But new aerospace graduate roles are sometimes all more on the maintenance, design support end testing than directly high-end R&D or space industry positions (dependent on performance and opportunity).
