CGC Landran is a Top Choice for B.Tech and Beyond

For the students who are looking for private colleges, CGC Landran is a decent choice for B.Tech and other courses like BCA, MBA, Hotel Management, etc. When I took admission in this college, I came to know that it is situated in a developed city. There is a connection between the alumni and MNCs. It is situated it in Chandigarh, where it is easy to travel to other good colleges to attend seminars. The college provides many internship opportunities that are both online and offline that help in boosting my career.

I wanted to choose the course of B.Tech in CSE but the seats were full so I had to choose specialization in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. The college is based on first come first serve. In single semester, we have to give semester examinations before the end semester exams. The question paper’s difficulty is moderate but the checking is hard.

In my course, a tuition fee of Rs. 64,150 is charged in every semester. Our college offers 80% scholarship for student who have scored good grades in competitive exams like JEE, etc. It has a discount for students in the state quota. During the registration, students have to pay Rs. 11,000 after that, it was adjusted in the semester fees for the first semester.

There are good at teachers in CGC Landran who are qualified in their field. Some teachers have 10 or more years of experience, teach well, and guide us accurately so as to what skills we should learn. The ratio of faculty to student is around 1:10. For subjects, which are theory based, the teachers dictate and we write notes. For core subjects like DSA, and Mathematics, teachers discuss few questions on a topic and give related problems as homework. We have a projector in every class where teachers uses them to teach us through PPTs.

Our college conducts placement classes like verbal, tech, and aptitude from 3rd semester, which are included in the training and placement program (TPP). The subjects are not included in the university so there is an extra charge for opting the subjects. These classes help in improving soft skills as well as coding skills. There are few reputed companies like Accenture, Google, and Microsoft, which come for recruitment. But the interview level questions are tough for those companies. The highest package received so far in our college is around 65 LPA with an average of 4 to 5 LPA.

Yes, our college offers residential facilities. We have five hostels in which 4 are for boys and one is for girls. There are six to seven floors in each hostel and a mess for each of them. We have a food court. We get food four times in a day: breakfast, lunch, snacks and last in dinner. The quality of mass is average. There are two grounds, where all open house sessions, cultural and festivals are celebrated. We have a sports room where there are equipments for cricket table tennis. A separate court for table tennis in badminton is also present. Today the hostel fees for my hostel is Rs. 65,000 for two-seater room and tentative of increasing pattern. There is no in and out timings for hostel during college hours but we should 8:00 PM. in night. The restrictions are more for girls deciding in hostel. For them it is mandatory to reach their hostels by 7:30 PM. we are not allowed to keep large electronic gadgets like heaters, speakers in hostel rooms. My overall experience in good because they keep check of time-to-time cleanliness of the rooms and campus.

There are in 13 blocks in CGC Landran. These include block for B.Tech, Pharmacy, B.Com, MBA, BBA, etc. All the blocks have their own library and canteens. There is a central library in the first block, which is of 2 tiers, and collection of books in there is large. There is a medical dispensary inside the campus, which offers 24/7 service. There are approximately 20 buses, which runs around in a radius of 10 to 15 KMs. My favorite part of the college is Parivartan ground where I can relax in spend my leisure time. We have a large auditorium to display and discuss about ideas given by good speakers who are invited in college.

There are students who are capable and focus in placements and do coding. There are many technical and non-technical clubs. Then on technical clubs conduct events related to dance, photography, and singing. The technical clubs conduct events related to web development, AI and Machine Learning, hackathons etc. The participation of the students in both the clubs is in good number and they excel in both the fields. We have other events like fresher’s party and the Parivartan which is conducted during winter. In this there are lots of inter-college competitions like modeling, competitions in coding, web development, dancing, and sports competitions like volleyball, shot put, throw football, volleyball, etc. My overall college experience is nice because the students here are friendly. In hostels, there is a ragging policy and the college stands by it.
