Central University of Himachal Pradesh Reviews & Ratings 2026 – Authentic Student Feedback

Admission: The course material feels old-fashioned. It doesn't keep up with new tech like library automation and RFIDs. They still focus on old-school library stuff instead. But the teachers are really nice and committed to helping us out.

Placement: For my master's in library and information science, I had to do internships. In the past, the university helped students get internships at top places like IITs and AIIMS, both in and out of the state. But now, due to covid, the placement cells are not active. Plus, there's a fee for placement help.

Campus: The classrooms and labs are just okay. Wi-Fi works fine. There are two classrooms and a computer lab with working computers. The library is pretty tiny. Services could be better, especially the library hours. The hostel has everything you need, but it's far from Camp Cam. The food in the canteen and mess is delicious.

Admission: The teachers here are really nice and supportive. They cover all the topics in the course and explain things in a way that makes it easy to understand. The teaching is practical and prepares us well for the industry. The semester exams are tough to pass, with an 83% passing rate.

Placement: I'm really happy with the college placements. Around 200 students got placed in top companies. The highest salary offered was 17 LPA, while the lowest was 2.1 LPA. The average package is 5 LPA, which is pretty good. Lots of students get training and experience through the placements. Companies like GoGreen, Nalco, and Pool visit our campus. Also, 72% of students landed internships in NGOs. Great opportunities all around!

Campus: The college has great facilities like labs, classrooms, libraries, sports ID cards, and cabin lockers for each student. The toilets are always clean, which is nice. They also offer hostel accommodation that is well-furnished, spacious, and comes with access to water and electricity. It's a comfortable place to stay while studying.

Admission: The professors at the college really know their stuff. They all have Ph.Ds from good schools. The courses set us up well for jobs. We have exams every semester, but they're not too hard. Most of us do pretty well.

Placement: I'm studying in the MBA course at CUHP, and I'd say about 40% of us get job offers on campus. We have a good chance to find placements here. The salary package usually falls between 4 to 9 LPA. Companies like Accenture, Deloitte, Infosys, and Tech Mahindra come for recruitment. In the third semester, we also have opportunities for internships.

Campus: CUHP has great facilities for the MBA course. They have everything you need like computer labs, library, canteen, sports, Wi-Fi, and more. The quality of these facilities is top-notch. The hostel is also really nice with yummy food and comfy rooms.

Admission: The teachers here are really helpful and they know their stuff. They give us good advice for the future. They're qualified and know a lot about their subjects. But the course doesn't really prepare us for the industry.

Placement: I was disappointed that the college doesn't help us find jobs or internships. No companies come for campus placements, so we end up with no job offers or internships. Our average salary after graduation is zero because of this.

Campus: The college has a library with newspapers, books, and journals for students to use. They also have a lab for students. And the best part? The college offers free medical services to students. It's a great resource to have on campus.

Admission: The teaching staff here is awesome  both the permanent teachers and the guest faculty. All the professors and assistant professors are super qualified. Two DST inspire faculty, Dr Padmanabh Rai and Dr Rajesh Kumar Sharma, are helping design the labs. We have a sports meet every year, and we get to learn from new scientists through their special lectures. It's great to have such knowledgeable teachers around!

Placement: For B.Sc Physics Hons students, there aren't any job placements available. But after graduating, you can go for M.Sc and take the NAT exam. Some of our peers from the university passed the NAT exam - 2 PhD students and 1 M.Sc student in Physics. Also, 2 PhD students landed assistant professor roles at HPU Shimla and Lovely Professional University.

Campus: Our university is currently located in a temporary academic block (TAB) campus owned by Shahpur Degree College. The campus has great Wi-Fi coverage and LAN cables in the labs. The classrooms are spacious and clean, equipped with projectors. We have good sports facilities and a nice playground. Medical facilities are lacking, though. The canteen offers affordable, but limited food options. Hostels are nice and there's a bus service. Overall, I had no problems with the infrastructure during my time at the university.

Admission: I picked this course because I want to become a teacher. I'm teaching in a public school now. The department is really good. There are lots of professors, and the student-to-faculty ratio is great. The professors have high qualifications and teach us really well. Exams are based on semesters, and it's easy to score well if you study your class notes. The class size is around 60 students. The course fees are INR 18200 per year.

Placement: I got placed last semester through the campus placement program. If you pass the pre-test, you can participate in placements. In 2022, 18 MBA students landed jobs. The highest salary was 6 Lacs per year, while the lowest was 3 Lacs. We were hired as management trainees and HR executives.

Campus: The university rents the hostel building in Dharamshala. The rooms are really nice, with space for 2, 3, or 4 students. The rooms have tiles and there's a solar geyser. They serve tea twice a day. There's a bus service for students going to the far campuses in Dharamshala, Shapur, and Dehra.

Admission: The teachers here are really helpful when you need help. They know their stuff. But the study material is outdated and should be updated. It doesn't prepare us well for the real world. The exams are not too tough. Just make sure to study from the textbooks and reach out to your teachers if you need help.

Placement: We didn't get any placements in our batch. Only a couple of companies come every year, offering around INR 1-1.5 LPA. Many of us either study more or prepare for government exams. Sadly, there are no internships available, so we have to search for jobs ourselves.

Campus: The infrastructure here is not great. The Wi-Fi only works for teachers, which is a bummer. The classes are kinda run-down and need some fixing up. But the library is cool and the hostel is alright. The students are really nice and always willing to help out. The food in the mess is okay, but not super tasty. The sports ground is pretty small, though.

Admission: The teachers here are super helpful and really know their stuff. They don't just talk about theory, they use examples and case studies to explain things. They want us to be practical and not just stick to theory. Even though we can skip classes, they always make sure we don't miss out on learning.

Placement: The university placements aren't great. Only small companies come for recruitment, and they offer low salaries, like 1.5 to 2 lakhs. Students have to work hard to find jobs. Most placements are for marketing and finance, and there are no opportunities for HR students. Hopefully, when the college gets its own building, they can organize more placement events.

Campus: Cuhp doesn't have its own campus, so they have classes in Shahpur, Dharamshala, and Dehra. The library is small with not many books for each department. The Wi-Fi is good, classrooms are shared, and they have two shifts for classes. The canteen is small with not many food options, but it's cheap. There aren't enough seats for students during breaks.

Admission: The faculty members at this college are the best part. They really make the college what it is. It's like being in a school with teachers who care. They pay attention to each of us, give us updates on assignments, and even offer extra classes to help us improve our skills. The syllabus is up-to-date with all the latest trends. The faculty members have industry experience, which is great because they can teach us practical skills. They use projectors in class, and everyone is really disciplined. We also get a lot of exposure to the industry, which is super helpful for getting placements and passing exams like NET/JRF.

Placement: I love how this college started their placement cell in 2017. Almost 90% of students here get placed in companies right after they graduate. Big companies like Cox and Kings, Thomas Cook, and MakeMyTrip come to hire students. It's great to see so many students getting job offers right out of college!

Campus: The college has great infrastructure for the fees, but it's still developing with temporary blocks. Once it gets its own structure, it'll be the best in the country. The classrooms have projectors and comfy theatre-style chairs. The library is well-equipped and the environment is peaceful.

Admission: The teachers are super helpful and know their stuff really well. They teach using whiteboards and PowerPoint, which is great. The student-to-faculty ratio is 15:1. We didn't have much industry exposure, but the course curriculum is really helpful for exams like NET-JRF, JEST, and GATE.

Placement: The physics department doesn't have placements for M.Sc. students, but the syllabus helps many students pass their NET exams. Even though there's no placement cell, the department organizes visits to labs for hands-on learning, which can lead to job opportunities.

Campus: The Wi-Fi works fine here, and we all get our own IDs for internet access. The department labs have around 60 computers, but there aren't enough equipment. Classrooms are tidy with projectors in each one. The library has all the books we need for our courses. They have a sports meet every year that goes on for 2 weeks. The food in the canteen is okay. The hostel rooms are nice, but there aren't many of them. The campus is small, but everything is well-organized.
