Transition from Campus to Boardroom

Positive- 1. Good for placements. 2. Good co-curricular activities. 3. Nice infrastructure. Negative- 1. No focus on real learning. 2. Faculty only sees its futures and not thinks about students. 3. Delayed funding for projects.

It was a chilled kind of environment. The course structure was not that difficult. Also, the faculty focused more on how to pass the exam and grab the marks rather than gaining the knowledge. But we can't argue, it's the same everywhere. So if one has to really learn something, he needs to be off the curriculum. But yes everybody was helpful even the faculty. As they helped with the attendance. By the way, College provided our numerous amount of opportunities to explore ourselves through co curricular activities.

The placements at CGC Landran is one of the factors that why it has a large amount of crowd. We had a joint campus placement at our college. Mainly three colleges- Chandigarh University, Chandigarh Group of Colleges Landran and Chandigarh Group of Colleges Jhanjheri participated in it. The placements season started in May 2019 for us and a good number of companies visited. Most of them were either for IT services or for sales. But there was a good number of companies and the package the delivered was also quite good. The minimum package was 3 LPA AND MAXIMUM WAS 33 LPA (GOOGLE). Other companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Goldmann sacs and many big names visited. Top MNC like Wipro Cognizant, Mindtree etc also visited. Cognizant is providing a stipend of 12000 out of which 1200 will be deducted as tax.

We had PARIVARTAN as a national level techno-cultural fest every year. There were a number of participants participating in them which were from various other colleges. We also had Tatva and Radio day which were the fests of our department in which we invited the whole college and also the polytechnic colleges surrounding the neighbouring states to participate.

Every semester you have to pay 43000. And for the examination, you need to pay 1250 every sem. Other than that they will charge an additional 600 every year for Parivartan. And if you are a hosteller you need to pay a minimum of 80000 per annum for a 4 sharing room in the hostel including food. But for electricity charges, I never knew how they calculated it and asked it from us. It was included in fine. Also during the course, CGC has a Training and Placement program that is designed to help the students to grab placements. This will require an additional payment of 6000 in two instalments.

I don't have informs about it as I wasn't on scholarship as well as on loan. But yes people had applied for a scholarship in government organisations where they had to prove every semester that they are clearing the semester with no backlogs.

College provided us with the extracurricular activities that are required to develop oneself. And all of them were organised in the college. We had yoga day, Vijay divas and various activities that took place from time to time to develop a student.

The hostels are the best places to stay during college time. There were multiple options for rooms - 2 sharing and 4 sharing. All of them charged differently for 4 sharing they charged 75000 per annum and there were some hidden electricity charges also. For 2 sharing it was about 85000. The hostel rooms were good and we're well maintained.

Yes, the college does provide us with an opportunity to get in touch with the alumni's and learn about the real market scenario so that we can get prepared for the placements. There were alumni meetings and gatherings with the students and students asked them a lot of questions which they answered and told us about the scenario in the companies.

I found this college in an advertisement in a newspaper. I quickly started finding the whereabouts of the college and searched the internet and also consulted from various seniors. Everyone was giving a positive reply and I was interested in Computer Science but couldn't choose it because seats were already full. Then I choosed Electronics and Communication in the same college. The admission process was simply at first I have to pay a registration fee and after that when I had reserved a seat for me I needed to go to college and pay the first semester fees with 3 thousand additional amount for counselling the say. And this is it I Can begin with my course. They take our documents for about 1 year and then return them after a period of time.

The faculty at ECE Chandigarh Group of Colleges Landran is well qualified. You can find that every course taught to you is by a Doctorate of Philosophy. But talking about if interested in teaching, it all depends upon how students are reacting. Meanwhile, if the professor really wants to teach he will call you in his cabin and then provide you with the real knowledge that you are looking for. But in the class, they will talk only about what's in the curriculum, not more than that.
