A really good college and spent 3 years worth it.

Placements: College supports placements but I was in B.A. so there was no particular placement system recently. There is this company I forgot the name, but it is like some TP or tasks type company. I think TP and tasks play more. But B.Com can make something out of you.

Infrastructure: Campus and hostels are good. The infrastructure is great and can be settled easily. There is also the best college in every other sense except placements for B.A. others I don't know. College is a place where you can have the best college life with ups and downs. Food and mess system is awesome, you can also visit canteen and other cafes and stalls in college itself, with a walking distance of 800-900 meters. We have sector 32 market where you can buy anything you want, and also there's a street food market which is open in the evening.

Faculty: Exams and all the other factors above mentioned are top notch as you know it's affiliated with Punjab University so education and degree are top notch. The curriculum is well structured and efficient also the facilities are up to the point. From here you can continue you are course at Punjab University or any other college. Chandigarh Dav and Punjab University are great options for M.A. in psychology on merit basis, or you can give CUET and continue in any other central university.

Other: College has it's own fests and the crowd is absolutely awesome. College celebrates 2-3 fests. College clubs are best because they host fests very frequently. These are like NEST out of all other colleges.

The college crowd and college life are good.

Placements: There are no placements provided by our college for the given course. I had psychology. Hons and did not get any placement opportunities however we did get unpaid internship opportunities. This is the only drawback there is no placement provided for a bachelor. s program.

Infrastructure: The college and hostel infrastructure is really good. Surroundings are beautiful. There is Wi-Fi and AC in psychology labs, reading room, and library however only fans are there in classes. The canteen food is really good. Almost everything is available in the canteen to eat hostel food. I don't know much since I was a localite no hostel was needed.

Faculty: Teachers are quite qualified and knowledgeable. They gave us practical and real-life examples. The course is relevant I'm not sure if it makes us industry-ready since there were no visits only workshop sessions are there. Semester exams are quite average and one can easily pass if they are average in studying.

Other: I gained interest in psychology when I was in 11th standard so wanted to pursue it. I feel there should be more industry visits and placements should be given if not placements at least internships should be provided.

Good college for a non-attendee.

Placements: Good placements are provided at my college. Approximately 5 out of 10 students are placed on campus every year. The packages provided are pretty decent from 5 LPA to 10 LPA, it is decent college for graduation purpose.

Infrastructure: College infrastructure is fine. There are no ACs in classrooms. There is Wi-Fi in the college. Three canteens are available along with two libraries, one of them is a study room. Proper laboratory and computer labs are available. Sports facilities are not good in the college, no proper ground is available but competitions are held frequently.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and helpful but some teachers are young which helps in building a good connection between students and teachers. The teaching quality is pretty decent and teachers are knowledgeable. This course I won't say is enough you need to pursue a postgraduate degree to get a decent entry into the job world. Semester exams are easy and pass percentage is good too.

My experience of the college.

Placements: The college provides the placements but the placements are on the basis of extracurricular activities that the students have and get the best internship on his/her experience and the study and the skill that he/she developed and many reputable companies provide placement.

Infrastructure: The facilities and the infrastructure of the college are very nice and there is the availability of the Wi-Fi. Also, there is also a library that has lots of books that are helpful for the students and help them to study. The classrooms of the college are okay types, not so much good.

Faculty: The faculty members of the college are very nice and well qualified and experienced and help the students very much in there studies and try new ideas for the better understanding of the subject. The course curriculum is very relevant to the study that is requested for the students. The difficulty level of the semester is not so high but it's a little tough.

A LITTLE WORTH THE HYPE.

Placements: Placements are provided, but they depend on your skills, knowledge, qualifications, and grades. Big firms do come to the college to offer internships and on-campus recruitment. However, the course is new, so we cannot expect many placements for this particular course.

Infrastructure: The college has Wi-Fi and three canteens: one open canteen, one shed canteen, and one in the PML Business School. The classrooms are large but do not have AC. The hostel food is very nice and provided on time. The college infrastructure is good but very small.

Faculty: The faculty is good. The teachers are qualified and experienced in their fields. They are knowledgeable and helpful. There are mid-semester exams that are meant to be very hard to score, and then there are the end-semester exams, which are conducted by the university.
