Chandigarh University has a commendable placement record, with a 94% placement rate and around 695 companies visiting the campus annually. Major recruiters include tech giants like Google and Microsoft. In 2021, the highest package offered was 1.7 crore per annum, and for the CSE stream, the average package is about 7.32 LPA. Typically, 80% of students secure placements with initial salaries between 5 to 7 LPA, with some reaching up to 15 LPA.

Despite a high placement rate, increased student numbers have impacted placement opportunities. Internship options are limited, necessitating proactive efforts from students to enhance their skills and secure positions. The university provides scholarships based on CUCET exam performance, ranging from 20% to 100% of semester fees. To retain scholarships, students must maintain a GPA above 7.5. Semester fees vary from INR 80,000 to INR 90,000, occasionally reaching INR 1,05,000, but scholarships can significantly lower these costs (e.g., a 40% scholarship reduces fees to INR 54,000 per semester).

Fees increase by 10% annually, with the total study cost around INR 5 lakh. Faculty are generally good but lack extensive practical knowledge and include fewer doctorate holders and less experienced teachers, resulting in an average teaching experience. Despite a large student body, Chandigarh University offers considerable placement opportunities.

Chandigarh University - A Wise Choice

The yearly fees structure for CU is around 106k per semester, which doesn't include the hostel charges. You have to pay extra 100k for hostel yearly. About the scholarship , you can gain upto 50% Scholarship on tution fees via CUCET exams and if you want to maintain that scholarship , you need to maintain bare minimum 7.5 CGPA , failing to do so will result in termination of scholarship program. And ofc the fees is gradually increasing every year , for new admissions , it's around 130k roughly

CHANDIGARH UNIVERSITY

Talking about the fee structure of my course i have been charged 1,05,000 every semester and we have also been provided with a scholarship which is given on the basis of a common entrance test called CUCET by which we can avail scholarship and we have to maintain 7.5 CGPA every year to continue our scholarship. Here are decent amount of placement opportunities but strenght of the students is very large which leads to less chaces of getting placed .

Intership in CU

Student Snaps:

Currently, my fees are 90000 per semester but I am having my 40% scholarship so I have to pay 54000 per semester and fees for my junior batch were increased We have to maintain a 7.5 spa to get scholarship benefits else our scholarship will be removed. The placement facilities are good on campus but there is too much competition among the students because there is too much crowd in this college

A good college to full-fill your dream of getting placed in a good company.

The fee structures vary to the capability of the student, as they get scholarships according to their marks in the entrance exam of the college which is CUCET. By the way, the course fee varies from 80000 to 90000. And there are several fields from which you can get a scholarship in college.
