With the NAAC A+ Grade, the placement and internship programs are fantastic. They aim and also have recorded 100% placements with maximum packages as well. In terms of faculty, it has a well experienced faculty with both, an incredible academic record and also importantly with industry experience as well.

Hi,
Chitkara University and CU are basically same in the matter of studies and all but Chitkara University is well in infrastructure, that makes Chitkara more attractive but they have quite expensive fee structure. So if you want quiet good campus you can go to Chitkara, if you can't afford chitkara, you can go for CU. And you can also compare them and know there fees structure at Shiksha ( link given below)

Chitkara University is far better than CU in each and every perspective. Chitkara gives global exposure to their students and even more the crowd and environment of Chitkara is far better than CU.

As far as I have heard and seen for myself, Chitkara University is the best for media studies as because there are a lot of practical based knowledge. Journalism and media studies is about practising amd learning new skills and that you will get from Chitkara only. The other university might be good as well but as I know Chitkara in much more detail and know few good facts about the institution, I would recommend Chitkara Univerrsity.
