Both the campus has their own merits and demerits. Go through the following points to find out.

• Hostels: Jhanjheri campus has hostel rooms more spacious and has better bedding accessories than Landran. Overall Jhanjheri hostels have better bathrooms, gym, common room, food, mess facilities than Landran.
• Festivals: Festivals are better at Jhanjheri and many celebs come to the campus to perform.
• Faculty: As Jhanjheri is the new campus, most of the good faculties go to Jhanjheri.
• Placements: Placement companies come to Landran but that’s not an issue as it is a joint placement drive and Jhanjheri students participate in it as well.
• Transportation: Jhajhri campus is 7km away from Landran, and you won’t get a bus to Chandigarh or any nearby cities for the campus. You have to take an auto from Jhanjheri to Landran or Kharar.
• Small Campus: The Jhanjheri campus is smaller than Landran but it offers better facilities.
• Less Crowded: Jhanjheri campus is less crowded. It can be a good thing or a bad thing based on how you perceive it.

These are the basic difference between the two campuses. Now, it’s up to you to choose which is better for you.

My cousin studies at CGC Jhanjeri and it's a nice and average place to be. Following are some issues though, which may be burdensome:

• If you wish to go out during college hours then you will need to get an application signed by the CC and the HOD. The process itself will take up a lot of time.
• Girls can stay out up to 7 pm in summers and 6 pm in winters and you can step out to roam in the campus by 4:30 and you will have to return in two hours to avoid sending a call home.
• You should have at least a 75% attendance like most colleges, but it will be evaluated every 15 days. You will have to attend 75% of 15 days to avoid detention during the Monthly Sessional Tests of MSTs.
• The campus is verdant and hygienic and it has a playground, but it is surrounded by grasslands on all sides up to 5 Kms. It has all the basic amenities like stationery shops, sports ground, pool, games room, etc.
• Even transportation is an issue and autos and buses are the only way but quite time-consuming.

Hostel, mess food, cleanliness, room Sharing are not any issues at all. You will not have to worry about ragging too. You can go to Chandigarh for shopping after getting your passbook filled and signed by the Warden.

However, you cannot bunk because the campus is small, you can get discovered very easily and may face some good punishment. As for placements, it all depends upon research-based hard work and skills. Major companies do visit for recruitment.

CGC Landran and CGC Jhanjeri are the same and run by the same management. The faculties of the college are also the same. The placements for both campuses take place at the same time. The students sit together for their placements.

I have a few friends at both institutes and most of them recommend Chandigarh Engineering college Landran campus over Jhanjeri campus because this campus is the oldest, the environment is good, and it is located near to Mohali.

CGC Landran is better in terms of infrastructure and faculty members as well. The CSC department of this college is good. According to the recent placement highlights the average and highest CTC offered at the institutes is 7 LPA and 35 LPA.

According to the student’s review online, CGC Jhanjeri has earned this reputation by providing the best quality of education and improving as per industry needs.

• It offers B.Tech in various specializations like CSE, AI & Machine Learning, ECE, ME, Civil, AI & Data Science.
• The faculty of the college is highly experienced and specialized in their respective field.
• The college allows students to maintain an equilibrium between academic, practical, and industrial exposure.
• There are various student fests and recreational activities by clubs for holistic development.
• The college also has tie-ups with some of the International Universities to provide global exposure.

The college has one of the best placements for which it has received an Award for Quality Placements by ABP News. Below are the figures.

Overall, the college is value for money. You could choose to study here. It is a decent college providing all the necessary facilities.
