A good place to study but there are less placement opportunities.
Placements: My batch had a strength of 35 students, out of which, only 9 students were placed. The highest package offered was of 8 Lacs per annum, which was provided by TCS and the lowest was 4 Lacs per annum, provided by GCE. We were offered the role of Business Analyst. The criteria for the internship was comparatively good. The students who could not find private internships were offered the same under MOSPI. On an average, the stipend offered was Rs. 4,000 per month. There is no placement cell particularly for each department, but there is a placement cell for the whole university called AVSAR. It is somewhat useful when you're ready to work in a different field.
Infrastructure: Since Chandigarh is named to be "the beautiful city", so does the university campus. There's greenery everywhere with lots of gardens and a lovely library which is open for 24 hours. The quality of labs and classrooms is also quite good. There's a food hub in the centre of the university, called the Stuck (Student Centre) and the food is delicious. The hostel rooms can be tiny but sufficient to accommodate two people.
Faculty: The faculty are really good. The university is known for the level of education it provides. But there was no industry exposure provided. The course curriculum was very useful but still needs to be improved. In my course, some programming languages which are being taught have become outdated in the industry today.

Good infrastructure but requires more placement opportunities.
Placements: TCS visited for the placement of 3 departments i.e. statistics, mathematics and economics department offering 7.5 LPA. Among our batch, 3/35 students were selected for the analyst post. The internship was unpaid that was offered through the department. For the senior students, 1 company visited and hired two senior students offering 7LPA. Offered the post of a data analyst.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the department is good. Well maintained classroom, benches, air-conditioned library and seminar halls. The computer labs are well maintained with good systems. The projector facility is available in the classes, labs and seminar hall. The department and the hostel have Wi-Fi.
Faculty: The faculty members are experienced and have a good knowledge of the subject. Both board and presentation methods are used for the teaching purpose. The teachers provide you with good study materials. The languages taught in the curriculum are required to be modified. New languages needed to be introduced to R programming, Python, Tableau, spark instead of Fortran, C, and C++.
