Good infrastructure and facilities. Mess food is good.

Faculty: Teachers are good and really helpful. The course as of now is really good but a little off-track for cybersecurity students. Regarding the examination everything is good, you just have to prepare for exams and you can score a good grade.

No. 1 private university where you chase your dreams.

Faculty: There are 2 MSTs (mid sem test) of 20 marks, 1 final exam, and 3 practical assessments. It's good that you can easily score good marks in exams if you study, and the facilities provided for exams are very good. I also score good marks in all exams.

All about Chandigarh University - From infrastructure to curriculum.

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.

Years of learning and improving.

Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and always ready to hear the doubts and solve them perfectly. They use PPT and the curriculum syllabus that they have gone through themselves so that they could deliver a fully knowledgeable session. The course curriculum helps students achieve standards up to industry level. Semester exams are moderate most of us pass the exam in 1 go.

Forensic Science course outlook in Chandigarh University.

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.

Campus life is great.

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 Exams are designed in an outdated manner.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.

The campus provides good placements to students with a good score and real talent.

Faculty: Minor improvements can be done here but all the staff are well educated and have doctoral-level education experiences. Exams are conducted by the university itself in the form of MSTs, tests, and practicals. Exams are not that difficult in the first year but the level of exams increases as the semester progresses.

The infrastructure is good. The food courts are also good.

Faculty: Faculty members are average. Some teachers are good, but some are not that good. They are actually not giving internal marks and do not behave well with students. Sometimes, teachers mark students absent by mistake, and they don't apologize for their mistake. They blame students for being marked absent.

Best for college life and placements undoubtedly. I would recommend joining.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and good with students. Semester exams are easier, but due to relative grading, you cannot easily score a high CGPA. So you need to focus on internals. A 7.5 CGPA is mandatory for keeping your scholarship active.
