Absolutely satisfied because of faculty, good placement in 2025, and really good infrastructure.
Placements: 80% of students get placed in our course. The highest package is 10 LPA, the lowest package is 3 LPA, and the average package is 5 LPA. Apollo Hospital is a recruiting company. 90% of placement is at Serum Institute. Microbiology and researcher roles are offered in our course.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities are top-notch. It contains good quality Wi-Fi, well-managed labs, and well-facility classrooms. A library with a good number of books, and a good environment for studying. So that students can easily focus. Hostel facilities are good, including the mess and canteen, medical facilities, sports and games.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is the best in the world. This course is relevant and makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are interesting, very good, and among the best in the world and in all colleges and universities.
Other: I chose this course because I am interested in it, and it provides a very knowledgeable source for working. I think it is the best. Events and fests are top-notch. The campus has a number of students, and scholarships are also very good.

A Student's Perspective: Pros and Cons of CU.
Placements: Many of them get placed, but they decide to go for higher studies. The highest package in B.Sc. was approximately 6 Lacs, and the average package offered by companies for B.Sc. Biotech was 4 Lacs. Top roles offered were in insurance companies, medical scriber, etc.
Infrastructure: All the classes are smart classes. Wi-Fi is available in the hostels only and available in academic buildings but not for students, only for teachers. Lifts are available but students are not allowed in them; they are only for facilities and guests. Every academic building has its own library, but there is a central library situated in the South campus of Chandigarh University. The facilities provided by the hostels include a gym. Every hostel has its own mess on the ground floor, and they maintain hygiene. The food quality is also good.
Faculty: Yes, the teachers are very helpful, and all the teachers are qualified, having completed their Ph.D. in their fields. The university has two types of exams: MST 1 (mid-sem exam) and end-semester exam. The mid-sem exam is of 20 marks, with 1 hour given for the exam, and the end-semester exam is of 60 marks, with 3 hours given.
Other: I chose Biotech because I was interested in research and development. The best part of the course is doing the labs. The campus always has some event or fest. Some of the fests are 9XM Tashan Night, CU FEST, Fresher Party, Farewell Party, all organized by the university. Chandigarh University also provides scholarships for students. The name of the scholarship exam is CUCET (Chandigarh University Common Entrance Test). By giving this test, you can get a scholarship of up to 100%, and if you have scored more than 90% in 12th, you can get a 50% scholarship without giving CUCET.

College life of an undergraduate.
Placements: Around 40% of the students can secure a job because this course requires a master's degree for better job opportunities. Recruiting companies are Barmalt Marketing and AI Rimal Foodstuff UAE. Top roles include quality control management. The average package ranges from 6 LPA to 8 LPA.
Infrastructure: Facilities for the course include well-furnished classes with smart boards for teaching and Wi-Fi. Proper labs are available. There is a library with well-equipped books. In the hostel, facilities are not upto the mark which includes not proper hygiene when it comes to mess food, and no A/C for girls hostels. Night canteen is good and medical facility is okay.
Faculty: Most of the teachers are highly qualified and have done Ph.D as well. The teaching quality is unique and good for students. The exams are not way too tough. The pass percentage is 40% of the highest score, and the marking scheme is relatively marking.

Infrastructure: The whole campus got a Wi-Fi connection. In hostel facilities, they maintain the cleanliness and regular feedback from students is taken for hostel facilities. The quality of the hostel is good. Mess provides also good and healthy food. We also had dispensaries for medical and had sports complexes.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified. All teachers are Ph.D. graduates. Teaching quality was very good. The curriculum is also good and relevant to the course. One industrial visit is given. And also, we had to do an internship and a project according to your interest. No difficulties in exam.

Totally satisfied with the faculty. Really good infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: About 80% of students were placed after B.Sc., and the rest mostly chose to do M.Sc. The highest package is 18 lakh per year, and the lowest is 7 lakh per year. Companies include Apollo Hospitals, Roots Analysis, Amazon India, and Health Biotech. About 80% got internships in MNCs as well as in other companies like Mankind and Apollo.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and the library all have well-created infrastructure, which is very nice. The whole department is clean, and the library provides every book that is needed by students. Labs have all the necessary equipment needed to perform experiments, and we have different labs for different subjects. The facilities in our hostel are fine, although they repeat the same food in the mess again and again. Medical facilities are provided from 8 PM to 8 AM in case of emergencies; otherwise, our hostel is inside the campus, and the hospital is there as well.
Faculty: All the teachers are doctorate; they are not only highly qualified but also knowledgeable. They are very helpful in case of any doubt; you can visit them and clear your doubts. Yes, this course curriculum is relevant; it does make the students industry-ready. If you study or know the basics, then they are not so difficult. The pass percentage is 90%.
Other: I chose this course because I was interested in biology and chemistry and working with the latest technology in the field of biochemistry. The best thing is the lab classes. In India, biotechnology is not known at that level, so more awareness is needed. There are lots of events and fests, and the campus crowd is very friendly; you can connect with people. Scholarships are provided based on scholarship tests or the Plus 2 percentage.

CUCET isn't mandatory for B.Sc. admissions at Chandigarh University, but I'd highly suggest taking it if you're aiming for a scholarship because the university gives scholarships based on CUCET scores-score 90.01 to 100 and you will have a whole 100% benefit, whereas 80 to 90 requires you to have a
