Course Curriculum Overview
A better curriculum would have focused more on real life events in relation to the practical field rather than just theoretical knowledge. However, this is not just at Chandigarh University, all architectural universities have almost the same syllabus and they all lack more practical knowledge that a student might need before entering the architectural field. In addition to organizing conferences and seminars for students, Chandigarh University also tries to provide them with as much guidance as it can

Faculty
Having studied architecture at Chandigarh University, I can attest to the invaluable experience garnered through interaction with faculty from prestigious universities across the country. A great deal of attention was also paid to the students in the faculty-to-student ratio, faculties graduated from CEPT, SPA DELHI, SPA BHOPAL, and JAMIA, for example were hired . There was a wealth of knowledge and experience brought to the class by each faculty member. A variety of activities and trips were organized for the students to increase their knowledge beyond the classroom.
