Our university is the best.
Placements: We have an average of 50 students in a class. There is no such package offered to M.Sc. Physics students. But teachers guide us time to time, and we really enjoyed this journey in our university. Presentations and group discussions are also included during our course.
Infrastructure: Libraries are fully air-conditioned and open 24/7. The study environment is very good. Mess food is also very nice, and the cost is reasonable for students. Study rooms are available in every hostel. Sports are organized from time to time.
Faculty: Yes, the teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is also very appreciable. They use advanced technology to help understand the concepts. Semester exams are not difficult if you study regularly during your course in 6 months.

Excellent university for all courses.
Placements: Placement records of university are excellent. Around 80 to 90 percemt students of my batch were placed through on-campus drives. Top companies like wipro, hp, infosys etc. visit every year. The highest package is 15 Lacs per annum.
Infrastructure: All the necessary facilities like washrooms, Wi-Fi, labs, etc. are available. There are well-equipped labs and sports room as well. There are multiple sports grounds for students. They maintain proper hygiene in hostel's food. There is a variety of food available.
Faculty: Teachers of my department were too strict in terms of attendance. 75 percent attendance was mandatory to sit in exams. Although their teaching method was quite simple and easy to understand. They always told important questions before exams. Semester exams were not too difficult.

Punjab University review by M.Sc. Physics student.
Placements: We do not place students on campus. We have to apply to companies on our own. We have to either go for higher education or switch to some other field. Students go for research, probably and some switch careers and go for non-teaching and teaching roles in service-based companies.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities are good. We have almost everything in our labs. The Wi-Fi also works fast. The library is vast, cool and filled with books from all the courses. The hostel is nice. The students are very friendly. We have a lot of fun together.
Faculty: The teachers are nice and helpful. They understand our problem. They guide us on how to proceed further. The curriculum is old and is mainly designed for research purposes. The semester exams are easy and they mainly follow the private year papers. Just solve them.

The placements are good, but the competition is tough.
Placements: This course has good placements. The sister branch of this department offers medical physics course, which has most numbers of placements. The salary offered is 60K per month, and every senior is placed till now. They are placed in hospitals for working, and one needs to give exams in PGI to get a degree, and it is a three-year course.
Infrastructure: This course is in Panjab University, Chandigarh. It is a tie-up between PGI and PU. It is a developing branch, so the infrastructure is not so good, though it is developing. It is located in secluded part of a university, i.e., south campus sector 25, Chandigarh. It has enough sanitation facility.
Faculty: The faculty members are not much as in one has to strive for guest faculty, and it is basically a course, where self-study works. There are teachers, but one cannot depend on them. It includes Radiation Physics in a large amount, and we deal with the nuclear physics. One applies physics in the field of medicine also, and it is a three-year course 2+1 internship.
Other: The numbers of students are 8+2 (foreign ). There are a few cultural events though one can always be a part of Physics fest.

Almost satisfied with faculty but not with placements.
Placements: There are hardly any placements, so the only opportunity left to the students is to pursue higher studies or either prepare themselves with the other alternatives like preparing for government exams or pursue their hobbies as careers. So, placements, as compared to colleges like University Business School, are almost nil.
Infrastructure: Precautionary instruments and tubes, satpula are available, but some of the chemicals are not present. The department is old, and as it has the lowest fee structure, the department is not able to incubate new facilities as well. The libraries are well built and provide maximum resources. The canteens are the favourite place for the youth to spend their time.
Faculty: The faculty are A1. They are well educated, but sometimes they start overly interfering with the students' personal life like they don't like the master's student to pursue extracurricular activities. The teaching comprises audio-visual only during seminars. The seminars provide great learning and the best part of the curriculum.
