Overall University is very good. I think only one thing which needs improvement is placement.

Placements: There is no such placement cell in the department. Professors can help you in the placements but all you have to done by yourself. There is a internship in Masters but No stifund will be given to you in this internship too. The internship can be of 1 year depends upon your capability.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are very good. Wi-Fi is provided to every student in hostel and department. Labs are clean and well. The quality of food provided in mess and canteen is good and cheaper in price. Hostel is large and rooms are well ventilated.

Faculty: Professors are well educated and highly knowledgeable. All have doctorate degrees while some of have double Ph.D. too. They are helpful and guide you. Teachers tells you application of your concept and also provides knowledge from industrial point of view. Semester exams are not much difficult if you have attended classes on regular basis.

Really happy and privileged to learn from one the best microbiologists of India.

Placements: I got here in 2020 in B.Sc (Hons. ) Microbiology. My 1.5 year went online due to COVID-19 Pandemic. However, after it went offline I was so thrilled to see such huge and well maintained campus. The Microbiology department of Panjab University has world class infrastructure and research place. There's no better place than this to learn the subject if you're really interested. Moreover the fee is also very less as compared to other government colleges. The hostels here are also very cheap and good. But when it comes to placement, I wish I could say good about that too. They don't do much placements here. But I feel if you study from here you'll definitely get good job because it's very reputed even abroad. Therefore, I would wholeheartedly welcome my fellow juniors who wish to join Panjab University for your studies.

Infrastructure: The laboratories are well-equipped and maintained with nearly all instruments that you may need. They are easily accessible to the students too. Every student gets a hands-on experience of the subject and gets trained really well in practical work which I feel. Is missing in other institutions. Microbiology department of PU has one of the best laboratories in the country.

Faculty: They have highly experienced and knowledgeable professors who are constantly working in other respective fields in something innovative and novel. The curriculum is also good and exams are also balanced and are par with world-class exams. They focus on practical knowledge more.

Other: I'm of 2020-23 batch (B.Sc hons. Microbiology).

Best university experience in Chandigarh with highly knowledgeable professors and good science labs.

Placements: The microbiology department doesn't provide any placements. It doesn't have any placement cells. Some other departments such as B.Pharma and BDS have placement cells, but this is not the case with our department. If you have got admitted to B.Sc. you get the added benefit of an integrated M.Sc.

Infrastructure: The classrooms are fully air-conditioned. The seminar rooms are also air-conditioned. All the classrooms have projectors and whiteboards. The department also has its library. The microbiology department, along with the biotechnology department has its building. The labs are equipped with all the necessary lab instruments. The hostels are also good and the food provided is also good.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified and knowledgeable in their subjects. They guide us in our future perspective. The course is very relevant today in terms of the pandemic. Microbiologists have a role in many industries and the department labs prepare you for that. All the necessary protocols and practicals are carried out in the labs - such as PCR, DNA isolation, bacteriophage isolation, etc.

Other: The crowd and campus life of Panjab university are the best. The people are friendly and the nightlife of Chandigarh is well known. You can enjoy life here if you maintain a work-life balance. Many events and fests are organised at the university throughout the year and you can attend them free of cost.

The university provides practical exposure and experience.

Placements: In the department of microbiology, there are merely no placements, not even in other B.Sc. hons. courses in PU. We see M.Sc. final year students working much hard even during off hours, but at the end, they have to search for a job on their own.

Infrastructure: I think the department has the best infrastructure I have ever seen. This building was constructed recently (compared to other departments of section 14 of the university) in 2012. It has very nice and advanced labs where you get good knowledge and practical experience. In fact, the hostels of section 25 are also very good, and the food served in the mess is just like home made food.

Faculty: The professors are very well-qualified, and they all are Ph.D. holders. They have many years of experience. This course has industrial applications, so we get good knowledge and practical experience from laboratories. End-semester exams are moderate.

Other: Campus life is very good, and one will surely make tons of memories before leaving it. Many fests are held in the university. University life is just good, and in the end, you won't feel like leaving it.

Absolutely dissatisfied because of lack of placements, but everything else is just amazing.

Placements: None of the students were placed from department of microbiology, Panjab university, Chandigarh. The placement cell is not at all active. There's a placement cell known as Avsar, which provides placements in various departments such as engineering, statistics and many others. But, no student has been placed in microbiology department after bachelors.

Infrastructure: The facilities provided and the infrastructure is good. Everything from Wi-Fi to library is just perfect. The infrastructure of the classroom is just perfect, spacious, well ventilated having air conditioning facilities too. Panjab university is well - known for its hostels. All kind of facilities are provided in the hostels like canteen, tuck shop, gym, reading room, common room having television and washing machines too. The quality of the food provided is good and is evaluated by the officials from time to time. There is a health center in the university where doctors are available 24*7 and free check up and medicines are provided to university students. Inter departmental sports event ( both indoor and outdoor) are held yearly.

Faculty: All the teachers are well qualified ( PhDs ), well experienced and knowledgeable in their study area. Students teacher ratio is well maintained. The course is good and have value in industry as one can not even imagine any industry without microbiologist - whether it is a FMCG, pharmaceutical, cosmetic or even water industry. The semester exams are balanced, if one has attended the classes and studied only notes, they can pass easily. Passing percentage is 40%.

Other: I chose this course as being a medical student, I find this course quite interesting which has its scope both in teaching and research. The students should taught in a way that their mind become research oriented. The campus is just amazing. Various fest keep on taking place in the campus from time to time. All the festivals are celebrated both in department and hostels. The crowd is also good. The campus is very large and all the facilities are provided in campus.

Other: It’s a good college. The college has comfortable classrooms. The Faculty members at this b-school are strict when it comes to academics and students are permitted late admission up to five minutes there’s a CCD on campus. Films are screened occasionally in the Auditorium. Boys have a lot of freedom, so do girls except that they have a curfew active from 9:00pm. Being a centrally funded institute, college fees is lower than all comparable institutes. Almost all big companies come for campus placements. Post the commencement of the class.
