My experience at CEPT University.
Placements: The university has a placement committee. The placement depends on the department, as the faculty of planning has 5 departments, namely urban planning, urban design, urban infrastructure, urban housing, and urban transport planning. The majority of companies prefer planners. May it be infrastructure, housing or transport. The university has a common CV template for students. 70% of the students are placed per department.
Infrastructure: The university campus is located over 12 acres of land and is well-equipped with all basic amenities, such as IT services, smart classrooms, labs, a cafeteria, a library, a hall, a conference hall, an auditorium, Wi-Fi, etc. The college has a good infrastructure. The library is a repository of wonderful books and a lot of useful resources. The Wi-Fi network is wonderful. Classrooms and labs are extremely well-equipped. The University has hostel facilities for both girls and boys. The University provides hostel facilities with basic amenities such as mess, TV, common room, water purifiers, laundry service, security & surveillance systems, etc.
Faculty: Being at the postgraduate level, the lectures are more qualitative than quantitative. The faculty is mostly Ph.D. holders for theory classes. And with a minimum experience of 5 years of professional practice. There is one faculty member per 12 students. And a programme chair who looks up to the whole batch. With a teaching assistant for the help of the faculty. The course curriculum is specific to Indian sites and projects. And it makes us ready for the professional work. The exam structure is more about understanding the concept. So mostly we have open book exams. And assignment. Jury reviews are the final output we produce. And then the portfolio submission of the studio work. The course, in its initial stages of the semester, is purely research-based.
Other: Extracurricular activities are organized by the college every now and then in the form of seminars organized for every subject. A crowd at the college is great in many ways. I got to explore my hidden talent and I met new people and made new contacts.
