Absolutely satisfied with faculty, good placements in 2022, and really good infrastructure.
Placements: Almost 80 percent of the students are placed in this course. The highest package is around 56 LPA. Average package varies every year, and the recent graduated batch average package is around 8 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple visit the campus to hire students. At last of the course, all students received an internship offer.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the university is in top-notch condition. This is the biggest university in India. All labs and library are well-equipped with air conditioning. Classrooms are well-maintained. Food is ok for South people, but it looks like somewhat difficult to survive on this food. They provide 24X7 medical facility.
Faculty: Faculty at this university are well-educated and knowledgeable. Many professors are very friendly to the students. Teaching quality is also good. Every student is happy with the curriculum provided by the college. In point of difficult level of exams, I think sometimes we feel it's difficult and some other times it is not like that.
Other: The best thing I observed in this course is the curriculum. There is nothing to improve in this course. We have top-notch events and good connectivity. Scholarships are there to help students who can't pay their fees.

Reviewing facts about Lovely Professional University.
Placements: I am from the batch of 2023-2027 pursuing B.Tech in CSE, and like 80% of students are getting placed. The highest package varies from 20-30 LPA, the lowest package is 4 LPA, and the average is 7-8 LPA. Many companies visit here, like TCS, Wipro, and Capgemini. Almost 70% students get internships through the college in companies like TCS, Visa, and companies come here for roles like Web developer, Data scientist.
Infrastructure: For my course, the facilities are quite good. The university is providing computer labs, Wi-Fi and big classrooms. The library is also there, which is very huge and consists of a wide range of books. The hostel is also decent, and the rooms are always clean. Mess food is okay. Medical facilities are available at any time.
Faculty: The teachers in my course are good and very talented. Most of them are qualified PhD teachers. The curriculum is also very relevant to the industry, and it is up to date. Coming to the exams, the difficulty level is medium and mostly like 80% of students get good marks every time.
Other: I chose this course because I like to do something big in the CSE department, and I wish there were better, more advanced labs and more industry visits. About the campus life, it is really nice. We are having fests and events every day. I really like the campus life.

The best infrastructure this college has, alongwith very good placements.
Placements: More than 605 students placed in our batch so far. The highest package is 53 LPA from Microsoft, the lowest is 5 LPA from Capgemini, and the average is 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Microsoft, GoDaddy, GoComet, Firecompass, Broadridge, etc. 40 percent of students are placed at internships from our batch from the 2nd year itself from LPU. They got internships from other companies like QuickHeal Academy. Security analyst, Penetration tester, Malware analyst, etc., are the top roles offered.
Infrastructure: On our campus, all facilities are very good. But sometimes we have Wi-Fi speed issues in some blocks, not in labs. The library is open from 8:00 AM to 12:00 AM. Classrooms are digital for every class, we need a laptop mainly for CSE. Faculty are good. In the hostel, most of the facilities are very good, but a few times we have issues with the electricity bill at the end of the year. The gym is present inside the hostels, which is also free. The mess food is good in taste and unlimited. But the mess fee and hostel fee are paid separately.
Faculty: Teachers for our batch were industry mentors. So, they are very calm, patient, well-trained with practical knowledge, and treated us kindly. Exams are conducted very frequently here. But qualified faculty helped us to pass those exams very easily. In teaching, they provide us with industry materials, labs, study guides, PPTs, projects, etc. Teachers are always online, so doubts are cleared easily. The course is very relevant for us for the fee we paid. Placements became easy due to the industry tie-up curriculum only. The pass percentage is 40 percent in exams. The exam level is moderate to difficult. We can pass by studying easily.
Other: I personally chose this course because of my interest in cybersecurity, and was not very interested in coding like DSA. The best thing about our course is the CompTIA certification. Grade mapping for our subjects is available if these certifications are passed. So, we became good at fundamentals and scored well in 4 years because of certification. I wish the semester could be extended by some more days. The semester here is of a very short duration, with only 4 months per semester. Frequent events always take place on campus. So, the campus is always joyful, with crowds, talents, and student efforts. For events and fests, this campus is the best.

It is a very good college with excellent infrastructure and strong placement support.
Placements: For recent B.Tech passing-out batches, approximately 85–95% of eligible students get placed. The placement rate is particularly strong for CSE, IT, AI, and Data Science. The core engineering branches also receive consistent placement support. It depends on students’ skills and academic performance.
Infrastructure: B.Tech, BBA, MBA, BCA, and MCA courses are offered. Labs are available, and Wi-Fi is available 24/7 in the hostel and college. The library is very good, with seven floors. Each floor can seat 100–120 students. Food is very good, and three types of food are available. South Indian, North Indian, and combined. Non-veg food is not allowed.
Faculty: Teachers teach in English, but some teach in Hindi, and students can understand. In our college, there is a CAS exam first, then a mid exam, and finally the semester exam. For the semester exam, students have four attempts to pass. If a student does not pass after four attempts, it is considered a backlog. To clear the backlog, the student must pay 10% of the full college fee.
Other: Events happen in the college every week, with 3–4 events. Event fees range from Rs. 100 to Rs. 500. Scholarships are available up to 60–70%. Non-veg food is not allowed. If anyone brings non-veg into the college, their scholarship is revoked.

You get placed according to your capacity and capabilities.
Placements: The placement is given to deserving students who have the capabilities. They are placed by high paying companies, but if you are not that capable then you will have to find your own placement. Every student is not assured of placement. Its according to your capacity.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, smart classes, libraries, and even a hospital inside the campus. The campus is even bigger and has its own many areas and food courts. It has many facilities, like an indoor stadium, a pool, many grounds, and even a helipad for helicopter landing.
Faculty: Good faculty members, learning material, and even a good syllabus and half an hour of sleep in the world is a great day of school and I am not going to the campus. I do not know if it has any questions about your house, and even if I do not, I do not have to worry about getting a free ride.
