The campus life is enjoyable.
Placements: Our course is on teaching. There is no facility that any school could come and recruit us in their schools. We have to clear CTET and PTET for joining in school and we have to apply on our own. No facility for recruitment by the department. There are no placements for our course.
Infrastructure: Our university has computer labs but computers do not work properly. Et labs and multimedia room are available in the department. Hostel has small rooms. Problems like storage for clothes and footwears are faced by students. But, there is a happy and friendly environment in hostel as well as in department.
Faculty: Faculty of the course is very cooperative and helpful. We have many activities like morning assembly, Hindi Diwas, interaction program, Diwali celebration, and much more. We have a file called lifeskill. We get marks for participating in the activities conducted.

This is an average university but the reputation is good because of past.
Placements: Around 10% of students get internships. The average salary package offered is 3 LPA, and they used to be placements, but now only a few companies visit with the low package. College is also not organised its difficult to get any information and student center don't treat students respectfully.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not good, it is a typical government college with suffocated rooms, and no Wi-Fi for students. The gym is not good, and students cannot train there. All muscle machines are rusty but the food is very fresh and tasty. The sports team is excellent, and almost every sport is available. But the library is good with lots of books.
Faculty: Some teachers are very good, very helpful, but the rest of the teachers don't care. They don't even go to tell students about books, and students have to find themselves. Their check paper quantity over quality is justified.

Absolutely satisfied with college life and my university.
Placements: There is no placements in my department. When we where in 1st years that time only once a company was come for interviewing. That time 2guys were joined in a small company. No minimum percentage is needed. That placements cell is useless. Absolutely not satisfied with placements in my department.
Infrastructure: Panjab university Chandigarh is a great place for studies. University infrastructure is fantastic. University paovide us wi-fi for free at good speed, all campus is with network of with wi-fi, classroom are well standard. We have a library for free 27/7 open for the student of university campus (fully a/c ). University is having a large sports group for all outdoor and indoor sports. University is have a hostels also for boys and girls with good atmosphere. Love the cafeteria that is called stuck.
Faculty: Our teachers are very helpful and friendly, they guide as for our exams and competition exams also. Mostly teachers are Ph.D. degree holder. Ritio of students and faculty is 7:3. Faculty to is very friendly. They are well educated. Mainly they use to explain us as practically.

It is worth it to take an admission in this college.
Placements: The placements at Panjab University are number one. They offer a package of at least 10 to 15 lacs per annum. It provides a huge exposure. You can build a very good career here as it is a government university. You have to clear an exam before getting admission in Panjab University.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of Panjab University is like a city; it has sectors in it. It is so big that it looks like there is a city inside it. However, the infrastructure is outdated because of low attention from the government and the department. But it is huge and well-built in its own way.
Faculty: Faculty at Punjab University are well-talented, and they have experience in teaching for more than 10 years. Their experience helps the students a lot in their career. The faculty members are highly qualified and have the full working experience of the outside world.

The university is amazing with all the comforts provided to the students.
Placements: The placements were excellent in number as promised by our DCD. They have promised at starting that we will provide 100% placement in a course and also made that happen. The highest salary package they offered was 46 LPA, and the lowest was around 7 LPA. They called as many companies they could call. The companies like Amazon, Google, Flipkart, Facebook, and all the MNCs like Wipro, HCL, and all the companies visited our campus. Our university also offers the internships. They also provide training for the students. There is a placement cell, which not only provides information about the companies, which one have applied but also helps in providing a good personality development courses and helps in grabbing as many companies as one can achieve.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good enough and attractive. The campus is fully Wi-Fi enabled. Take it a lab or classroom or library, and our campus has provided good furniture. Also, the library is full of books with multiple copies of each book. The campus not only pays attention to the curriculum but also take care of extra activities like sports and games. Not only the campus but also the food provided to us is healthy and full of nutrition. The hostel rooms are good and fully furnished. I don't face any issues in the campus regarding anything.
Faculty: The faculty and courses are large in number. They have provided skilled teachers for the subjects. The faculty members are large in number, who has good knowledge in their subjects. The teachers provide extra lectures also to all the weak students or who may have any doubts regarding the subjects. The method provided for the teaching or the way they deliver lectures are oral and also use projector to make the lectures interesting. The ratio is somewhat good for the student and teacher. We get the industry exposure like we went to industrial tours and also for other courses like aeroplanes, and they take them to an airport for the betterment of students. The course curriculum is useful.
Other: The fee is economical as one can easily pay. Also, the universities conduct events like fest and the other activities on some festivals. The crowd is good in number and well-managed. The college also provides scholarships to provide having a good score in 12th and also in JEE Mains. Also, the college conducts scholar exams for the students. Overall, the campus infrastructure is attractive, and the fee is pocket-friendly. The campus crowd is also good, and they also provide extracurricular activities.
