Engineering programmes offered at LPU(Lovely Professional University) are highly acclaimed. It’s unique curricula and sound placement history have attracted students from the remotest corners of the country. Where people from north India headed to the south, east and west for quality engineering education, LPU has effected a reversal in trend. This is largely due to LPU’s unique pedagogy and niche programs such as Mechatronics, Automobile, and Oil & Petroleum Engineering which are benchmarked against the top ranked universities of the world.

At present, LPU engineering students are working with prestigious global companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and others, at salary packages of more than a crore. Corporates like Cognizant, Tech Mahindra, Amazon and many other have offered coveted placements to LPU students, in some cases setting new placement records. The engineering curriculum at LPU is designed in such a way that the students and faculty make new strides in the areas of research, industry and academics.

LPU has a strong academia-industry connect and has also collaborated with top global companies to provide industry immersion to its engineering students. The university has industry partnerships with Google, Cisco, Oracle, SAP, Microsoft and others to equip students with high industry versatility. The university also offers various opportunities to its students to work directly on live and entrepreneurial projects, which provides them great insights into the latest trends in technology and leadership in the corporate world. LPU students gain on-site experiences through industry internships with corporate giants like Cognizant, Microsoft, Infosys, and ISRO to name a few.

LPU fosters a research oriented and creative approach to engineering, in its students.  Here, mechanical engineering students create solar, hybrid, driverless and mobile operated cars; computer applications & engineering students create Mobile Apps; and Electrical & Electronics students come out with drones. Interdisciplinary collaboration is especially encouraged at LPU, and a team of engineering students from various branches have came together, recently, to compete in a NASA Challenge at the US Space and Rocket Centre.
