Ques

Which college is better for engineering (Himachal pradesh technical university) HPTU or Chandigarh University (CU)?

● Top Answer By Saikat Verma, on 25 Oct 21

Ans
HPTU has its own popularity from some of the colleges under its name. All the colleges are not up to the mark when certain things like Faculty, placement, infrastructure, or alumni are considered. On the other hand, Chandigarh University (CU) holds a great reputation. It has great placement records in North India. So it is recommended that among the two opt for CU as it will prove to be beneficial to your career.

Ans
Referring to the previous years’ placement records of HPTU, they are pretty average. This year, the highest salary package offered was around 4 LPA and the lowest salary package offered was around 2 LPA. Major companies like Wipro and TATA visit the campus for recruitments in the field of science and technology. However, they do not offer any internship opportunities. The salary packages offered by most of the companies are quite the norm. You can also apply off-campus and get jobs.
