Cybersecurity is a booming career space and has a lot of scope in India. Though both the universities are good in academics but being an alumni let me share the details. This programme aims towards creating efficient Computer Science graduates with specialisation in the most relevant technology domains of present times - Cybersecurity and Blockchain which emphasizes comprehensive knowledge of Cyber Crime, Network Security, Cryptography, Threat Intelligence, Intrusion Detection, and Prevention Systems. Students are made to understand the process, practices, and gain knowledge regarding unauthorized access, protection of networks, computers, programs, and data from unknown attacks, and smart contract enforcement mechanisms. Professionals in these technology domains have become an absolute necessity in the functioning of any organisation, be it private enterprises or government entities. The salient features of this course are :-
1. Specialisation and Industry Certifications
12 - 16 specialisation courses. Industry Certifications are integral part of curriculum. Indicative Certifications:

Getting a B.Tech degree also increases the scope of getting jobs in different fields. If colleges are unable to give placements, a student can get a job on his own. Though both the universities are good in academics but being an alumni let me share the details for LPU. LPU is an internationally acclaimed Private University situated in Jalandhar (Punjab) and is known for its premier engineering programmes. LPU is the best single-campus university poised with the latest technologies and world class facilities for delivering effective and quality education to the students.

I think you must go for B.Tech. Due to the huge potential for infrastructure development, there is a huge demand for engineers nowadays. Being alumni I must recommend Lovely Professional University for pursuing Engineering courses. In LPU, B.Tech. Is one of the most leading programme for the students because of the global acceptance. Best part is that LPU is giving equal focus / priority to all the streams of Engineering for the all-round development of Students. & equal opportunities in terms of Placement. Excellent cutting edge Infrastructure, innovative pedagogy, high quality of students - these are some of the factors which attracts IT giants to be associated with LPU. It will remain very easier for IT giants to recruit qualified manpower as per their requirement from a single window. In this respect I would like to mention recent achievement / ranking made by LPU which is globally admired. Lovely Professional University has been ranked among the Top 200 universities in the World in The Times Higher Education Impact Rankings 2021. The University, which has participated in the rankings for the first time, was ranked at the 2nd the highest position among Indian universities in its debut year itself. Only three Indian universities have found a place among the Top 200 in the rankings this year. Lovely Professional University has surpassed eminent Indian varsities such as Indian Institute of Technology. In terms of placement in 2020, Lovely Professional University managed to achieve excellent overall placement record as always by securing more than 7000 job offers, internships, training for its students overall. In recent Placement sessions, a fresher Engineering graduate of LPU managed to bag 42 LPA package from Microsoft. Hope this helps !
