Absolutely dissatisfied because of quality of education in online classes.

Placements: Every year almost every student for job through the placement cell got placed in various hotels. On average students got 1 lac to 4 lac per annum packages. Taj hotels, Oberoi group of hotels were top recurring companies. Every student has to do internship as part of curriculum so every student got internships.

Infrastructure: There is free Wi-Fi throughout the whole Panjab University campus. There are two training kitchens in UIHTM. There are also various labs for different departments like food and beverage service and house keeping. Panjab University has a central library and there's also a library in the department of UIHTM. University has hostel for both boys and girls but they are only available to top scorer in enterence test. Quality of food is average in hostels. There is a university ground near the department. University also has a heath centre near the market.

Faculty: All teachers are well qualified but the quality of teaching has dropped after the pendemic in online classes. The curriculum of this course is relevant to the industry. There are four main subjects which are thought throughout the course of four years. Exams are not very difficult, they are easy to crack.

If you want to learn, then don't join this college, all that matters to them is attendance.

Placements: The placement department is not much good compared to IHMs, but the placements are really good. They provide training with Taj hotels and JW Marriott hotels. The list of placement is good and assured placements are done, The faculty responsible for the training are well-known in the hospitality industry, and have very good relations with good companies.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is good. The campus is surrounded with a lush green environment. The building is new and well maintained. Cameras are fixed in every corner for safety. Fire safety measures are taken well care. The building has 4 floors with labs and good classrooms.

Faculty: The faculty members are okay, to be very honest, and some teachers are least interested in their jobs. But on the other hand, some are really good and have amazing knowledge in their fields. They are friendly, but strict when it comes to studies. Grooming is considered as the most important thing. All they care about is attendance. Less knowledge is provided.

Other: Fests are conducted very often. The crowd is good. Trips are organised very often. Students are taken to leadership camps.

A honest review about my university .

Placements: Placement ratio is so good coz I got my placement within 6 months. The highest package my friend got was 12 Lacs annually and the lowest was 4 Lacs annually about 67% of our university students got internship which is hma good percentage and performance by the university .

Infrastructure: Talking about facilities you'll get the most settled infrastructure here which is aa good thing. Library was the most peaceful thing I ever seen in this college, classrooms are arranged properly and the sports was the priority of the university there .

Faculty: Teacher are very careful and a helping hand too because I remember that am confused about my course and but some teachers helped me out. One the other hand the passing percentage in my course is 89%. Course is relevant because teachers only focused towards the topic.

Other: I chose this course because I have more interest in this rather than other one. I think everything in this university is good in its own way. I also got the chance to attend big celebrities concert which I think is also a good thing.
