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 Exams are designed in an outdated manner.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.

Absolutely dissatisfied and regret my decision to get admission here.

Faculty: The faculty is cooperative but most of them don't know how to teach they got jobs because of connections or experience. Curriculum is not designed as per the government rules and exams are easy but for me I am not satisfied with the overall experience of the university. I hope this gets better and the management will improve. I would still suggest you not take admission here.

Good infrastructure and campus life, decent academics, but placements need improvement.

Faculty: Teachers are mostly helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable; teaching quality is decent. The curriculum is relevant but needs more practical exposure to be fully industry-ready. Semester exams are moderate, with a high pass percentage of around 80-90%.
