The hostel facility is based in our university, in a room where you get a B.Ed study table and chair from the university. The mess food is delicious.

My honest review about my college.

Placements: Huge placement opportunities were given to every student who studied at Chandigarh University. Almost 90-95% of students got placed every year. Job opportunities were good. Most of the students got jobs in the best companies, and they were doing good there. In placements, it was good college in North India. According to me, they placed 80% of the students from my class.

Infrastructure: Our campus was very good. Weekly assignments, house tests, and also surprise tests were also conducted. We could find this kind of curriculum which made for both sports students also for clever students. It was a better course curriculum than that of my previous one. Hostels were quite neat and clean. Mess food was very good, menu changes from time to time. Housekeeping was also available 24X7. Security of the hostel was also quite good. We could feel at home there. Washrooms were also quite clean. Doorstep laundry facility was also available.

Faculty: Teachers here were well-trained and highly qualified. There was a well-organized schedule for all classes. My course was more specific to research and lab work which was quite beneficial for me as teachers were always supportive. There was at least 1 industrial visit every semester. There were almost 4 lectures on every subject per week. Teachers were quite young here, therefore, they could teach us in new ways. Lectures were taught basically with PPTs. Almost every teacher here was from very well-reputed universities. Various guest lectures were also organized by the institute from time to time.

Infrastructure of Chandigarh University is very good.

Placements: In the last semester of the exam for the degree, students are eligible and the percentage is 75% above what you have to get for sitting in placement. For a company, it depends on a branch and the average package for the university is 2.5 lacs, which is the lower package.

Infrastructure: The hostel facility is the best, and according to the price for a 5-seater, you have to pay 138,000 rupees. In the room, you have a bed, table, and chair; you have to carry your own mattress. Food quality is okay—not so good, not so bad—you can eat it or sometimes you can't. The registration process is also available online on their official website. I didn't opt for PG but my friends opted; they are happier than me. You can leave and eat outside, and you can save INR 50,000. Hostel Fee: INR 138,000 per year.

Faculty: I chose biotechnology for my masters because this field gives me more opportunities in the future in the fields of pharmaceuticals, research labs, diagnosis centers, and biomedical fields and allows me to explore knowledge worldwide. Last two years, the world suffered from the pandemic situation due to COVID 19 So, many opportunities are open due to new microbes in the field of research. The ratio of faculty and students is 1:5. The faculty qualification is a Ph.D. completed. All faculty give us the best knowledge and improve it. Here, the term exam is conducted four times per year, of which two are the final semester exam and two are the practice exams for the final exam. Also, this university conducted practical exams. Class size:-57 The course costs INR 90000 per year.

Chandigarh University M.Sc. review.

Placements: The placement opportunities are very limited. Some companies come for jobs but they take only 2–3 students and that too is a topper. The rest of the students do not get anything. We have to try on our own and in different fields too. There are no internship opportunities either.

Infrastructure: The labs are very good. The classrooms are very nice and big. The Wi-Fi is fast. The library is big and has a lot of books. The ground is very big and students play there day and night. The hostel food is good. The hostel rooms are small but you can manage.

Faculty: The faculty is very helpful. They teach us in depth and try to connect with us. They want us to work hard. They also teach us how to go on after graduation. The curriculum is mainly for research purposes or for teaching. The semester exams are easy to score.

College with the highest placement rate.

Placements: The placement rate is high at this university. Many students from this course are placed in the serum institute and many other big pharma or biotechnology companies. Internships are completed twice during the Master's programme. In summer camp for 1 month and in the final semester for 6 months.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is very beautiful and large. During classes, students are not allowed to use their phones to help them study. Hostels are nice with spacious rooms. Beds and nice food are provided. Food is provided three times a day, and during weekends, outpass is provided.

Faculty: The faculty is very helpful and friendly. They help students understand the topic or clear their doubts. Teachers are highly qualified and have completed their Ph.D. This course is all about your interest. If you have the zeal to learn something new, then this course helps.

Other: As I said earlier, this course is all about interest. To maintain that interest, the department of biotechnology organises various quizzes, competition and fests.

Chandigarh University provides excellent hostel facilities.

Placements: Students have to complete the degree to become eligible for campus placements. Many companies visited the campus. The average salary package offered was 6 LPA. Not all students got placed through our college. No special training was provided by the institute for placements. Around 50% of students got placed.

Infrastructure: In a four-seater room, two fans and one duct were available. There were tables, cupboards, and beds. A balcony and other facilities were available. The meal was good. The menu was also good. We have to register for the hostel online. We need to pay the hostel fee of Rs. 100000 per year.

Faculty: Teachers teach well, and people around you are so generous that you won't even think of leaving this institute. I wanted to complete my master's degree in a good area of the field. Almost all faculty members were Ph.D. holders. There were three exams per semester. Those were 2 internals and one external. Practical exams were also conducted. Exams were good but slightly difficult. There were 60 students in our class. The course fee was Rs. 130000 per year.
