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.

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.

Very good infrastructure and facilities. Good placements, campus life, and facilities are excellent.
Placements: It depends on the performance of the student whether he/she can get placed, as the competition is very high. The highest package is around 45 to 50 LPA, the lowest is 5 to 6 LPA, and the average is 10 to 11 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, etc.
Infrastructure: Facilities of the classes are very good. Labs are also very good, and library facilities are excellent. Wi-Fi is good, but sometimes, due to the large number of students, the network goes down. Hostel facilities are very good. Mess food and canteen are also very good. Medical support is available 24x7. For sports, we have an auditorium where you can play games and sports.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable in their respective fields. Whenever we cannot understand, we can ask anything in their cabins when available. Teaching quality is excellent. The course curriculum is relevant and very good to make students ready for industry. Semester exams are moderate, though if your basics are clear, then you will be able to clear, otherwise not.
Other: On campus, almost 5 to 6 events and fests are organized where you can participate in Hackathons, Singing, and many more. If you have good marks in JEE or Class 12, then you can get around 40 to 45 percent scholarship. In addition, there is LPU NEST, which is LPU’s own entrance exam.

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.
