Chitkara University has a good environment overall.

Placements: Students are placed, but mostly in campus placements, which are of good packages if a student has more than 9 CGPA. Otherwise, you may have to look for off-campus opportunities. Many students here got placed as interns in JP Morgan in their second year, but they had 9+ CGPA.

Offers practical, industry-focused learning with good faculty and strong placements.

Placements: As far as I’ve heard, most people get around 5–8 LPA, with 12–15 LPA for the top 10 percent of students. Overall, the placements are decent, with a good alumni network in many companies like Wipro, Nvidia, Adobe, and Flipkart. Quite frankly, you’ll need to do most things on your own to secure a placement.

Know about my Chitkara University.

Placements: Here, everyone got a good placement as hoped. Nearly 4 LPA is the average, the lowest is 3 LPA, and the highest is 6 LPA. The best companies are coming here. But this time, only a few med-tech companies came. An internship is also provided by the company as needed after getting selected.
