Which is better, DAV University, Jalandhar or Chandigarh University (CU)?

Both Avantika University or G.D.Goenka Universityare not mainstream design colleges. It is suggested not to opt for any of the colleges as they are primarily engineering-based and design is the third priority.

The present status of the design department is on the verge of collapsing in both of the institutions. They almost got shut down last year. The number of students was very less and the existing students shifted elsewhere.

Rather than going to Avantika University or G.D.Goenka, you can go to other colleges such as the World University of Design and MIT Pune. These are the institutes you should be joining if you are looking forward to pursuing Designing. Both are mainstream design universities and way better than what you are thinking of.
