When comparing B.Tech at D.Y. Patil International University, Pune with B.Tech at Lovely Professional University (LPU), LPU generally offers broader and stronger placement opportunities overall. At D.Y. Patil International University, Pune, the placement record shows a decent but more modest outcome: in the recent 2025 cycle over 250 recruiters participated with a the highest package around ₹33 LPA and an average around ₹7.5 LPA overall. B.Tech CSE students specifically saw average packages in the vicinity of ₹7 LPA, and placement rates typically hover around 70-80 % with many students finding roles in service-based companies like Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant and similar firms. However, the depth of recruiter engagement and the range of high-value offers tend to be less compared to top engineering campuses. In contrast, LPU's placement ecosystem is larger and more diversified. The university regularly attracts thousands of job offers from over 2,000+ recruiters, including major global tech and engineering firms such as Google, Microsoft, Amazon, TCS, Cognizant, Bosch and many others. Highlight placements have included exceptionally high international packages (e.g., up to ₹2.5 crore per annum) as well as strong domestic top roles, especially in CSE and related streams. Average salary figures for top quartile B.Tech graduates at LPU are reported around ₹10+ LPA, with many students securing competitive mid-tier offers as well. While both universities provide placement support and industry exposure, LPU's larger recruiter network, higher top packages, and broader suite of opportunities tend to give it the edge for students who are ambitious about landing strong campus offers—especially in software, product, and multinational roles. That said, actual outcomes depend on your branch, academic performance, technical skills, and how actively you leverage placement resources.
