Other: PAU is widespread university in heart of Ludhiana, Punjab with world class infrastructure, sports ground, auditorium and research and development facilities. Here faculty is old and teach latest management courses. Fees per annum is lowest among major B- Schools. Good Exposure in extracurricular activities as lots of competition in drama, creative, management and sports happen all across the year. Student intake is less than 40, so it’s not an overcrowded college. It is away from industrial hub and less marketing of college is done, these are the two negative points I feel. I will rate this above average B- School

Other: Department of Business Administration has one of the best faculty, not only in terms of academic experience but also in industry experience. It is the inbuilt model of university which derives research orientation both for faculty as well as for students. Learnt a lot during my research project. Placements are also an added advantage, being oldest and a premier B-School in the region, best companies visit for placements. Networking during Ludhiana Management Association with key speakers also boosts your chances to making it big in your career.

Small batch enabled us to develop a strong bond and help each other in learning. Extracurricular activities were there which helped us in overall development of personality. All the pass outs are doing very well in their own expert fields which is a testimony of a strong foundation

Our college doesn't have a good infrastructure, facilities and management.
Placements: About 60% of the students got placed from the previous batch. The highest salary package offered ranges from 5 LPA-6 LPA. HDFC, Amul and some government companies visit here for placements. Students have to search for internships on their own, and they have to visit companies and get selected. Amul and Verka are some of the companies which offer internships, and students can do internships anywhere.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi facility is good here, and the library is great and available for 24 hours. Mostly all books are available in it, and the infrastructure is not good. As our college was built many years ago, it has to be renovated a lot. However, the mess is good, but the canteen is small.
Faculty: Teachers are good, well qualified and have many years of experience in teaching. They have good knowledge of the subject, and they are helpful and available most of the time. They are strict and make students improve in all fields by giving presentations. The course curriculum here is relevant, except for a few courses.
