ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS

AN ENGINEERING EDUCATION AHEAD OF ITS TIME

At Chitkara University, our Engineering students receive a quality education that prepares them to advance the frontiers of technology. Through our “Hands-on” curriculum, students design and construct all-terrain vehicles; design, build and load steel bridges; produce computer animations and video games; and harness the power of the sun to race cars that they design, build and test. Our engineers don’t just learn theory – they expand upon it and apply it.

Chitkara Engineering programs were initiated in the year 2002 with the sole focus to prepare students from all backgrounds for careers as Engineering in a rapidly changing, technology-driven society. Within a decade, our Engineering (B.tech) programs have emerged as among the top 50 of the country which speaks volumes about our strong academic heritage, innovative teaching methodology, and proactive industry collaborations

THE THREE PILLARS OF CHITKARA ENGINEERING EDUCATION

• Proactive Industry Collaborations
• Chitkara Engineering has established an unassailable reputation for very strong campus recruitment on the sheer virtue of our intensive focus on making all our graduates “Industry Ready”.Know more about our industry collaborations
• We Let You Embark On Research from Day One
• We believe every student benefits from being taught by experts active in research and practice. You will discuss the very latest ideas, research discoveries and new technologies in seminars and in the field and you will become actively involved in a research project yourself. All our academic staff are active in internationally-recognised scientific research across a wide range of topics. You will also be taught by leading industry practitioners.There are always numerous engineering research projects in progress, funded by industry, charities, government departments and research councils. Our undergraduate students benefit through access to up-to-date equipment, industrially linked projects, and staff expertise.

• Strong Campus Recruitment
• Our Engineering graduates go on to great careers, we’re hands on and responsive in our teaching, we provide a great environment to study and our research is world class. We have established an unassailable reputation for very strong on-campus recruitments on the sheer virtue of our intensive focus on making all our graduates “industry ready”, but brilliant campus recruitment is an end result of our teaching approach which is learning-centric enhancing knowledge, skills, and understanding through practical experience. Some of the major highlights of the campus placements for the batch graduating in the year 2016 were
  • 124 companies came on-campus for hiring Chitkara Engineering students of Punjab and Himachal campus (Most of the companies are listed on the next page)
  • Out of batch of 992, around 218 students got “Dream Job Offers” from marquee companies such as Amazon, HP Labs, Toshiba, Cisco, Evalueserve, Integreon, Flipkart, Practo and Zscaler.
  • Some of the top on-campus recruiters were as follows –
    Infosys-238 / Capgemini-114 / iNautix-76 / Alliance Global-57 / Tech Mahindra-36
  • In keeping up with the campus recruitment trend since the year 2006, not many students were available for placements after the first week of campus recruitment. So the companies such as Ericsson / Unisys / Emerson / Amdocs / Hitachi/ Newgen / Cybage picked up small numbers.
  • For Mechanical Engineering students, some of the major companies that visit our campus are – Mahindra & Mahindra / Honda / Eaton/ SML ISUZU/ Yamaha/ L& T / Escorts / Tata Technologies / PunjLloyd / Denso / Apollo Tyres / Jindal Saw / Motherson Sumi / Godrej / Coca Cola.
  • For Civil Engineering students, some of the major companies which visit our campus are – L&T Construction / Sobha Developers / 3 C / Shapoorji Pallonji / Sterling & Wilson / Cinda Construction / Lafarge / Afcons / DLF / Raheja Construction / JSW Steel / Mahindra EPC

THREE HALLMARKS OF A CHITKARA ENGINEER

• An Excellent Analyst with a Strong Technical Base
• As a graduate from one of the top engineering (B. Tech) colleges in Punjab and Chandigarh; the Chitkara engineering graduate is destined to be ahead of the curve in his analytical ability and technical know-how. Through engaging in various engineering research projects facilitated by state-of-the-art equipment, his level of technical competence having been honed through an understanding of leading computer programs and systems, will be second to none.
• A Creative Problem Solver
• Engineers who can think logically and follow the steps are a dime a dozen. The world needs engineers who can think laterally, using creative reasoning to solve existing problems and come up with unique and innovative solutions. At Chitkara, we encourage our engineering students to be creative problem solvers by giving them enough freedom and room to brain storm, debate and discuss with peers as well as our panel of leading industry experts.
• A Strong Team Player
• While we acknowledge individual aptitude and talent, we firmly believe that great minds working in tandem are more powerful that an individual mind working in isolation. Which is why our students are encouraged at an early stage in the program to form groups and work as teams. In this way, each student is able to hone his/her communication skills as well as appreciate and recognize the value of differing inputs working together to accomplish a single research project.
