All about Chandigarh University - From infrastructure to curriculum.
Placements: Talking about placements, companies come with different roles and with good packages. Many big MNCs come with big packages, but only 2-3 students get selected. Talking about how many got placed it depends on the students Chandigarh University brings to the company.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is excellent. It's a private university, so the infrastructure is excellent. They have 2 campuses one is the main campus, and another one is GGS. In GGS BCA and MCA classes take place and on the main campus it looks like a film set they made for South Campus, I like it.
Faculty: About the curriculum they take 2 MST and 1 EST then in between them there are lab MSTs too which make a semester a little hectic. They have around 10 experiments in each subject you have to make a practical file in each subject, and then in end-semester final lab MST, you have to submit it.
Other: If you are getting any other government college, go for it but in private it's worth it.

Forensic Science course outlook in Chandigarh University.
Placements: There are a total of 54 students. The highest package offered in our course is 6 LPA and the lowest is 4 LPA. Many private forensic Science labs recruit students, but there are still fewer private opportunities. The internship is done by the students themselves NIT is provided by the university. After doing M.Sc. in forensic science, we can become an assistant scientific officer in the labs.
Infrastructure: The classrooms have a good Wi-Fi facility, there are 4 AC vents in the class, and projectors are present. The library is present on the 6 th floor of the department where one can go and study properly. There is a dispensary on the campus where medical facilities are provided. As I'm a day scholar, I don't know much about hostel facilities.
Faculty: Teachers are PhD holders with 8 to 10 years of experience and they are intellectual and supportive. The semester exams are good if you study well, you will excel in the exams as well. There are 4 semesters in this course, and at the end of the 4th semester, we have to submit a thesis as well.
Other: This course provides you with an insightful experience related to crime and how we can help the court to assist in providing justice. The fee for the course in CU is Rs. 80,000, but if you have marks greater than 7.5 with 75 percent attendance, then you will also get scholarships.

Placements: The college provides very decent placements. Students here are placed in some good companies. They also have a program known as TPP (Training and Placement Programme), which helps students during placements. Overall, they are supportive.
Infrastructure: The hostel infrastructure is decent, but the mess food quality is not that good. Labs and classrooms also lack proper infrastructure. The canteen is good. There is a food court with franchises like Chai Sutta Bar, Domino’s, and Burger Singh. A personal suggestion is Jugri Chain.
Faculty: The curriculum is designed well, but the college lacks in faculty quality. Exams are designed in an outdated manner. Faculty members are often rude and not very skilled. They do not give good internal marks, which affects CGPA.
Other: The crowd is from a tier 3 background.
