I would not recommend this college, especially for psychology.

Placements: Placements at Chitkara, especially in the Psychology department, are very poor. It is like you are doing a Master's in clinical psychology, and they are offering you some call centre jobs and some random jobs which are not completely acceptable. So it's very bad. The maximum salary package offered was 3 LPA.
