The Chandigarh Group of Colleges (or CGC) are the educational institutions located in Mohali district of Punjab in short distance from cities of Chandigarh and Mohali. Chandigarh Group of Colleges was established in 2001 at Landran [1] initially and at Jhanjeri in 2012. [2] [3]
Even having a title with a similar name, the three groups of colleges i.e. CGC Landran, CGC Jhanjeri, and Chandigarh University, are three different educational institutions, different locations, and also the three have separate identities.
In 2002, CGC Landran was setup under the affiliation of I. K. Gujral Punjab Technical University. Better known as Landran College, CGC Landran is offering many technical, pharma, management, arts and science courses. Landran is an interconnected urbanized village linked between three prominent towns or villages of Mohali i.e. Sohana, Kharar and Banur.
CGC campus students get opportunities to be part of different cultural events like fashion shows, [4] Faculty felicitation, [5] NASA sponsored CanSat competition, [6] MHRD's Smart India Hackathon events, [7] Start up to Scale Up conferences, [8] NCC best cadet, [9] Faculty Development Programmes [10] [11] apart from annual Techno cultural Fests. [12] [13] CGC students also participate in many sports tournaments and competitions in events such as Volleyball, [14] [15] Wrestling, [16] weightlifting, power lifting, best physique championships [17]
CGC offers following courses, [18] [19] such as:
In 2012, CGC Jhanjeri was initiated as technical campus and currently running under separate administration in Jhanjeri. It is a village which connects two important cities i.e. Mohali and Sirhind-Fategarh. [21]
Initiated in 2009, CGC Gharaun later got University status by UGC in 2012 and is known as Chandigarh University. [22] [23] [24]
4500 MNCs like Infosys, Wipro, Microsoft, Google, HCL, Larsen & Toubro Infotech, Tata Motors, Cadence, Dell, Polaris, SAP Labs, Adobe Systems, Citrix Systems, Oracle, Cognizant, Bharti Airtel, Deloitte, IBM, Tech Mahindra with more than 490 job offers visit the campus every year for placements for both Landran [25] and Jhanjeri campuses. [26] [27] Though no. of placements does not ensure that the grabbed placements are high because most of the recruiters are mass recruiters.
The highest placement gone is 1.07 cr. by off campus placement and on campus with 45.9 lakhs in the year 2022 at Amazon.
Chandigarh Group of Colleges is among top 10 institutes of India in terms of number of patents filed.

CGC has MoU with National Institute of Electronics & Information Technology for Entrepreneurship, R&D Projects and training.
