    Most of the students are pursuing CS from prestigious institutes for good learning, package, and overall development. However, you can go with mechanical engineering if you are very passionate about core discipline, and like the work of machineries.

    There's no such thing as "better" for describing a branch, because every branch has its importance. It is just the matter of your interest based on which you feel a branch is better. I would suggest you to analyse what suits you better and in which of those courses you will perform good. Consider your skills, choose the course for which you've relevant skills. If you are good at coding or if you would like to build your career towards IT field you may take Computer Science, otherwise it'll be of no use if you just take it so that you can get a job early or you can earn more. If you're interested in mechanics i.e., robotics, vehicle man

You can go through your point of interest in it is all about your question.

I've had a really good experience with the mechanical engineering faculty at Chandigarh University. Most of them are PhD holders, so you can tell they know their subject inside out. What I like is that they're not just teaching from books—they share real-world examples, guide us in labs, and help with projects. The faculty is approachable, so if you ever get stuck on something, you can just ask, and they'll explain patiently. They also encourage students to explore electives like Thermal & Energy Engineering, Industrial Manufacturing, or Design & Robotics, and help you pick what suits your career goals.

Yes, Chandigarh University is a good choice for B.E. in Mechanical Engineering. What I really like about the programme is the variety of specializations you can pick, like Thermal & Energy, Industrial Manufacturing & Management, or Automation & Robotics. The labs are another strong point from 3D printing and advanced welding labs to industry-backed centres by Honda, Mahindra, Hyundai, and MG Motors. These collaborations give you hands-on exposure that feels very close to real-world industry work. On top of that, the department is both ABET and NBA accredited, which adds global recognition. With regular industrial visits, workshops, and
