Hello!
I am not so aware about Chitkara University, my brother has done BHMCT from Lovely Professional University and he is currently working with The Leela, New Delhi. Based upon his experience, I would say go for LPU.
What if I suggest you a university, which has a Hotel and is being runs by Hotel Management Students I. e. Lovely Professional University. LPU has it's own UNIHOTEL. LPU School of Hotel Management and Tourism is among India's best Hotel Management and Tourism colleges that grooms students through industry endorsed curriculum and intensive service oriented practicals with industry exposure in excellent infrastructure. The school provides students with simulation labs, aviation labs, restaurant training labs, basic and advanced training kitchen labs that expose the students to real-life situations and environment. Apart from semester long industry internships, students also visit landmark tourist destinations and hotels to relate theory with industry practices. She also told me the School is conducting various workshops through which students are learning the live technical skills through tactical experiences. Students are achieving their targets of coming out with mind boggling ideas which showcased on the table essentials. They have celebrated World Tourism Day with the aim to provide a platform for the students to perform and compete with the participants from all schools of LPU, which will help them to develop new skills and do their best to promote the Hospitality and Tourism industry. She said, Students of LPU School of Hotel Management and Tourism created the longest salad bar measuring 311.2 metres, made up of 7 different types of vegetables and weighing 1259 Kg. LPU has separate dept which looks after placement opportunities. Apart from that, each school has its own placement coordinator who is responsible and actively works for not only calling companies to the campus, but also for preparing students for placements by giving them proper training. Some of the best brands like Ritz Carlton Florida (USA), Hyatt Regency Miami (USA) have selected our students with packages upto Rs 25 Lacs. Leading national brands like Oberoi, The Grand, Air Vistara etc. Visit our campus for recruitment's. Hyatt Regency Miami USA and Great Wolf Lodge Wisconsin selected 6 students at the package of 15 Lacs Per Annum. They get chance to do Internship in Five Star Hotels as well. I hope this helps!

Hi sakshi, If you have already decided that ultimately you want to be a chef then why to waste your 3 years doing B.Com. I would suggest you to go ahead directly to pursue hotel management course. According to me you should opt for a course Bachelors of hotel management and catering technology (BHMCT). Usually according to the norms of UGC this degree is of 4 years duration that means 8 semesters will be there. Now the question arises from where does degree should have to be pursue, although the choice is totally in your hands and you should compare will try to pursue this degree from any of the school of hospitality and management. If you are native of North India I would like to suggest you for LOVELY PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY JALANDHAR PUNJAB. They offer versatility in their courses of hospitality and catering technology. Multi storey word class kitchen infrastructure and lavishing hotel inside the campus for the daily practice of there students. Totally vegetarian restaurant where students practice to cook only a vegetarian cuisine. At LPU these courses are meant for students who are looking for specialised hospitality degree with global recognition that can lead to the leadership. Although, this year LPU has relaxed their eligibility where they have exempted the candidates from LPUNEST exam. Those who are willing to take admission in the university, can take a direct admission now without qualifying entrance exam conducted by the University still a candidate must have at least 50% aggregate marks in the 12th class and English must be studied as a subject. Best thing of the LPU is that they very good Industry Tie-ups which results in usual guest lectures by an Industry Experts. Students work on various Projects in collaboration with Industry. If you are studying at LPU placements are not at all a problem because they says "we provide 100% placements to those candidates who are eligible for aspiring for the placements". Thus, this is all about what is on my mind about LPU. I hope this would help you.

Hi Sakshi, Keeping in mind the kitchen, there are many different kinds of chefs, you may opt for the bakery & confectionery, salads or even garnish sections as these do not involve non veg. Otherwise in case you are willing to cook non veg food, it is not so necessary for vegetarian students to taste what they have made. It will be suffice if they are willing to cook non-vegetarian dishes. I can tell you one fact of one of the best schools of hospitality and catering technology in India that they have India's other words first vegetarian Domino's restaurant on their campus. It's LOVELY PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY, JALANDHAR, PUNJAB. They offer versatility in their courses of hospitality and catering technology. Multi level word class kitchen infrastructure and lavishing hotel inside the campus for the daily practice of there students. Totally vegetarian restaurant where students practice to cook only a vegetarian cuisine. At LPU these courses are meant for students who are looking for specialised hospitality degree with global recognition that can lead to the leadership. All the best for your future.
