The college is top-notch choice if you want a balance of everything in life.

Placements: 89 percent of students were placed. The highest on-campus package is 21 LPA, and the lowest is 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies are ZS and Infosys. 80 percent got internships. Top roles were SDE and analyst. There were well-recognized companies that visited our campus, and the placements were fine.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are well maintained, with a few having AC. Hostels are top-notch with all facilities and no restrictions. Hostel staff is also very good. The hostels are well maintained. There are too many hostels, and students have the choice to choose according to their needs.

Faculty: Teachers are very good, with very helpful coordinating staff. The course is relevant as per the top market. Semester exams are very difficult. Teachers have subject knowledge, and they teach very well. They also assist in projects and help the students. They give balanced marks.

Other: The course is provided on the basis of rank, and I only got this according to my rank. A lot of events happen in a year, including a yearly annual fest named Goonj.

Faculty members have a bad attitude.

Placements: I am in 3rd year currently in this Institute in chemical engineering. It's a good college if you are good at study or passionate about chemical engineering. Otherwise, if your dreams are different, like other than a chemical engineer, then this college will depress you.

Infrastructure: Labs are good, but many pieces of equipment are not working and have been in that condition for many years. No one takes responsibility for fixing them. The hostels are good, but it is difficult to get accommodation if your merit is low or if you are not involved in campus activities or politics.

Faculty: Faculty members are so bad. They have the worst faculty members ever. They have no interest in understanding a student's mental health. They only seem to know one thing. How to depress students, make students feel useless, and deter them from exams. They tell you to come to class on time, but they never come on time themselves.

Altogether a good option for a Tier-2/3 college in the growing phase.

Placements: In my course, around 80 percent of students got placed. The highest package is 22 LPA, and the lowest is 3.6 LPA. The average package is around 8- 9 LPA. Top companies include ZS Associate, AMEX, Deloitte, KPMG, GreyB, TCS, Infosys, Policy Bazar, and ProgDNA. Most of the roles offered are in Data Analytics, and a few are in Software Development roles.

Infrastructure: Hostels are limited, and most of the students rent out flats or PG. The campus is lush green, and sporting facilities are available. Classrooms are big, and Wi-Fi is available 24/7 in hostels and colleges. Labs are fully air-conditioned and carry out DST-funded research and innovation. The library is also well maintained with a sufficient no of books, journals, and papers.

Faculty: Teachers are cooperative, but not all of them. Teaching is fair in terms of semester exams. Mostly PYQs are repeated, and the evaluation criteria are lenient. Curriculum is well-mapped with Tier-1 colleges and relevant. Students get ample time for other activities.

Other: Campus life is altogether good. Lush green campus and enough sporting facilities. Events are not that big or highlighted. Connectivity is good and in the heart of Chandigarh.

Somewhat disappointed due to hostel availability, I am happy to get a decent placement at just 95%.

Placements: I think 70 percent of students got placed last year, as I've heard from seniors. The highest on campus is 27 LPA, I think. Off campus, it is 35 LPA and maybe more than that. Placements are decent here according to the percentile. Median is 8 LPA according to seniors. Companies come for all sorts of roles, which can be expected from a college of this caliber.

Infrastructure: Hostels are good, but limited availability, so it kind of reduces the aura of the college. You've to be in the top 10 percent of your branch and category when you're taking admission through JEE. I don't know the exact states for every category. I don't know the exact states, but 15-16 from the general get permanent hostels, and 2 from the BC category.

Faculty: Teachers are decent. You go to college to get marks and a CGPA. You'll have to learn on your own if you want a decent package. But teachers are still decent. For most subjects, teachers are enough, I think. The curriculum is okay at best. Semester exams are easy.

Never come here. Classrooms don't have proper working fans.

Placements: 90% you require without a homestay, if you are from Chandigarh, you have to score 80% to take admission in civil or mechanical. If you have to take the case and ECE, you have to take 90 from the last few years. Civil placement is very low, and the average package is about 4 LPA-5 LPA.

Infrastructure: AC is available Only in teachers' cabins and academic cell. No AC is available in the class. The infrastructure is good, but they clock the gate. We have to walk from the parking to go to the next building, or we have to go to the first floor. The linkage is available, but the lift is not working in one building.

Faculty: Not all faculty are good, but it's okay. Teachers are knowledgeable. The quality of some teachers is average, but some are very nice. Semester exam papers come from Punjab University, and most of the difficulty is in college. It is moderate, like quite not that much, you have to score a minimum of 40 in the exam out of 100.

Other: I chose this course because I didn't have any other option.

Average in all aspects; the rest depends on the individual.

Placements: I am a student of the ECE department in UIET college, and looking at the placement of our senior batch 2021-2025, the placements went average with an average package of 8 LPA. There were companies for analytics roles, with the top company being ZS, but for the role of software engineer, the requirements of companies were very high and dynamic.

Infrastructure: We have one of the biggest libraries in North India, the AC Joshi Library. The labs are well-equipped and have ACs, but the classrooms don’t have AC. The college provides a password and username to access their Wi-Fi. Hostels are pretty average; the rooms are small, but they have a 24-hour canteen facility and one AC-fitted reading room. The mess food quality is just like any other hostel, nothing to expect much.

Faculty: Teachers are quite supportive, with a few exceptions. You have to be in touch with them to know about any projects, and if you want to work with them. The course, to be honest, is not on par with what the industry requires, but the attendance policy is not that strict; you can manage to get your time to work on skills. Semester exams are of average level; a prep of 10-15 days before the exam works (10-12 hours each day).
