I am satisfied with the faculty members and campus but not enough placements.
Placements: Only few companies are coming to recruit us. Less number of core companies come to recruit in mechanical branch. According to me, approximately 50% of students get placed. Some good companies came like Byjus and they also recruited.
Infrastructure: Hostel is good. It is well maintained. It is also clean. Food is provided in time and its quality, quantity and taste is also good. If you are outsider then I will suggest to stay in hostel instead of PG or mess. You will love the ambience and hostel life.
Faculty: Faculty members are good in behaviour and knowledgeable. They are polite in behaviour and they teach the topics in a good manner with appropriate real time examples. They are always available if you have any kind of doubt. They will not hesitate to clear your doubts.

Poor infrastructure and poor placement cell leads to less job which is a matter of concern.
Placements: There are very fewer placements. The college has to improve its placement cell and should also improve the technology of teaching. They have to help students to enhance their knowledge and technical skills. Otherwise, there is no use of education. Spending lakhs of rupees and not getting quality education leads to waste of time and money. When a person does not have knowledge of his stream, he would not get a job and will not be placed. Because of fewer oppurtunities, a person may not get a job in his field which is to due to zero campus placement.
Infrastructure: Very poor infrastructure and machinery for the mechanical engineering department. Lack of labs which results in the poor education system, and hence students do not get placed in their field and do not get a respectable job. Lack of infrastructure plays an important role. The college does not have a good library, good sports facilities, poor hostel conditions and poor bathroom conditions lead to poor sanitation and also affects the health of the students. These things should be a matter of concern for the authorities.
Faculty: Poor faculty as teachers do not teach students properly and do not share their knowledge in government institutions. Taking less pain for the students will lead to disinterest in studies and students can't perform their 100% ability. The faculty should be helpful rather than discouraging the students in sports and studies also. Very poor faculty in the college who does not encourage students to do better in life. On the contrary, they discourage them by giving reappears in the examination.

Other: The college faculty is really good, but it need some improvement in the placement department. Overall, experience was good. Practical knowledge and laboratories need to be enhanced with new technologies and more qualified lecturers are required. Overall, a decent experience. Its value for money and put a lot of effort in their students. Cultural program was good but more fest need to be organized on the grounds of Chitkara University. So, that student can be more interactive with the outer world.

Also sometimes there are some extra exams happen for those students who were unavailable at the internal exam time. You just need to inform before the exam.
