My honest review about my college.
Placements: We have placements but not upto the mark we like to compete with the B.Tech guys. They tend to be the real competition and sometimes companies won't even consider the MCA students. We have seen a lot of drop down in placement from 2015 onwards so there is nothing much left with MCA placement. College does not provide any internships, it is upto us if we can get to have some good internships that provide us with the real scenario of industry and working.
Infrastructure: Net is very old and obsolete. They will tell you that we teach up to date technology and will guarantee the placement also but they will never tell you that the companies. I was in hostel. The hostels are very expensive and they provide sub-standard quality of food. Also, there are four students in each room.
Faculty: We have good teachers with good experience but they are somewhat nuts when it comes to assignments. Some teachers are way too crazy when it comes to presentations. They are quite interactive and actively help students to gain the skill set required in the outside world. They even do live sessions like teaching with a projector and other presentations to give a wide sense of knowledge. The curriculum is quite easy and not at all hectic but the assignments can be a difficult task to do when teachers become rigid to get their assignments done on time. MCA is a very good course but the syllabus should be updated by the time. But they are still teaching syllabus which is 5 years old and not useful at all. They are still teaching computer languages like VB.

Campus journey in Chandigarh University.
Placements: Many campus placements are offered here. Many companies visit here so you can easily crack your placements. Many companies have visited here recently like TCS, Cognizant, Josh Technology, Swiggy, etc. According to your need you will crack college campus placements.
Infrastructure: Good infrastructure is there under one umbrella. You have the whole world top to bottom like stationary, gym facilities, sports facilities, and many other things. In hostel, food quality is too good also. One interesting thing is that faculty members also eat the same hostel food so don't worry related to food. All classrooms are well maintained. All facilities are there with AC projector, smart board, and projector so don't need to worry.
Faculty: All faculty members are very professional and supportive inside and outside the college. They always encourage us. Also not too much difficult to pass the semester exam.
Other: I chose MCA because of my background and I am interested in software development.

Really good infrastructure is there.
Placements: Placements are offered to all the students who are registered for the TPP course worth 11,000 rupees, and about 120 unique companies come only for MCA students. Accenture, IBM, etc. are the top recruiters. Average package is around 6 LPA. Top roles are junior developer, data analyst, ccd engineer, devops, ML engineer, etc.
Infrastructure: All the classes now have air conditioning, and there are two blocks for computing in which many courses like BCA, AR VR, B.Sc., CS BCA, Data Science, MCA, AIML, MCA, ccd and devops are running. 2 boys hostels are present, which are just 50 m from acedamic block. And girls hotels are on main campus, which is 2 km away and university provide free buses for the girls hostels residence who are enrolled in Computing. Food is good and rooms and washrooms are cleaned daily.
Faculty: Some of the faculty members are very knowledgeable, some are average but all are doing well for the students as per new technologies. All are well qualified and many of them are Ph.D. holders. There are 3 exams in a semester: MST 1, MST 2, and end term, and also 2 lab exams: lab mst and final lab exam. Exam difficulty is moderate to high.
Other: I chose this course as I am not getting that much opportunity after B.Sc. CS and to get a hike in salary, I enrolled in this program. CU organizes almost 2-3 fests every month and every festival is celebrated there. Sufi nights, tech fest, freshers and many others where many big celebrities, actors and singers come for the performance and promotions also.

I am satisfied with the curriculum of the university and got the opportunity to learn many things.
Placements: The placement record of Chandigarh University is not that good or that bad. It is not good because they allow as many students as possible and don't have a limit for students in any course; that's why not everyone gets placed. So it is not certain that everybody will get placed.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. Wi-Fi, classrooms, and the library are available where you can study. The overall infrastructure is good, and the campus is also well maintained by the maintenance staff. Good facilities for water are provided in each block.
Faculty: The curriculum is good, but it is very broad and unable to cover everything in depth during one semester. In one semester, you have to submit ten assignments for one subject, so you don't get proper time to study, and even faculty members are also busy assigning marks for the assignments.

Chandigarh University is the best out of the best.
Placements: Chandigarh University placements are always better than the others. In the current year, the students got approximately 9,000 campus placement offers from the University. The highest package is 54 Lacs for engineering department, for MCA, it is 15 Lacs with an average package of 5-6 Lacs. DPCD prepares the students for aptitude, soft skills, coding, and GD debate grounds. When students are in their last semester, the University provides internship opportunities in big companies like IBM and Oracle but we need to accept that this year the placements are lesser than the average placements of every year.
Infrastructure: Our university is very big, we need to travel distances to reach the departments but there is no transportation facility inside the campus. The college has Wi-Fi in the campus and the labs are modern having all the accessories. The classrooms are well maintained and in good condition. Without I card, entry is prohibited. Hostel facilities are offered by the college providing good accommodation and food facility. Shared and separate rooms with AC, washing machines, fan, and hot water is provided in the hostel. Sports ground is very big and we have competitions during the college’s annual fest.
Faculty: I feel that for Computer department there is a shortage of faculty, they are not enough in numbers. Therefore, the faculty is not enough to handle all the students and end up not being that helpful. The course syllabus is good but not up to the mark, it is related with the industries. The semester pattern followed by the University in one semester is that we have end sem exam, class tests, mid sem, moral, assignments, practicals, projects, and externals.
Other: The market place is 7 kms away from the college which is a major problem for the hostelers.

Chandigarh University review.
Placements: The drive starts from the 3rd semester, and almost 60 to 70% of students from past batches have been placed in many companies like Accenture, IBM, and many more. Top roles offered in companies are developers and coders, some companies have specific interests.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are good. They include food, Wi-Fi, purified water, and a cooler/AC. The quality of food is average to good, sometimes it feels excellent and sometimes average. Hostel has a very big ground in front of it, a side ground for volleyball, and an additional basketball court.
Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified and young, which helps students discuss their problems with them. Teachers are also very friendly and cooperative with the students. Semester exams are held every one to two months: 2 mid-terms and 1 end-term.
Other: I chose cloud computing and devOps because I wanted to be a cloud engineer, so Chandigarh University is one of the colleges that provides specializations in the MCA course. The course fee is also budget-friendly.
