Glimpse of Biotech Department of LPU.
Placements: Placements are average, with roles like drug manufacturing, quality control and quality assurance executive, business analyst, and sales and consulting roles, and packages are like 3-5 LPA, it’s quite rare to get 10 LPA or 8 LPA, and once in 3-4 years one gets such a good package, usually from an IT or software company.
Infrastructure: Classrooms and furnitures are quite good and spacious, and infrastructure is really good. Library has a lot of books, but people there hardly use it. Library is open from 9 to 7. Labs are good, but not that good as they don’t have all instruments, and most of the instruments don’t work. Hostels are below average, they charge highly, and mess food is below average.
Faculty: Some faculty members are IITians or NITs or from good research backgrounds, they really bring good research to the department. Some faculty members are top 2 percent scientists of the world. Syllabus and curriculum is basic, and it’s easy to score if you know what and how to write.
Other: Events and other things always go on. They might distract you and cost excess unwanted charges, so better avoid them if you want good placements and CGPA.

Every opportunity available, but you should be serious.
Placements: To be very frank, colleges do not provide the actual data of placement internships, etc. The reason behind it is that there are too many admissions this year, more than Rs. 30,000. Although, the highest placement is of 2.5 crore per annum, it is fake. Last year, it was 54 LPA, and the average package is about 6 LPA to 8 LPA because they make students ineligible for the placement, so this is the average of only eligible students.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is really awesome and well-maintained. Wi-Fi is available in the hostel. The library and the hospital are available. Mess food is ok-ok, canteen food is good overall hostel and infrastructure-wise, LPU is holding its position well. Sometimes, like very few times in the whole year, there is an electricity issue, but it is acceptable.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, they are mostly IITian and NITian qualified and knowledgeable. Some of them do not deliver well, but most of them are good. Course curriculum is also relevant, and regular practical field experience is given to students in other branches, such as civil. And academically, it's also not that tough, except for some professors. Last semester, 91 percent of students passed, which means no back, and this is the general trend.
Other: College life here is full of fun, and lots of activities are going on. I chose this course since it is the time of AI, CS is the best branch for it. I also did a specialization in AI. I should be serious about academics from the first semester.

Placements are not good, huge number of students (completion more), and infrastructure is good.
Placements: I am currently pursuing my B.Tech (CSE) from LPU, Punjab. I am in 2nd year currently, so if you are coming LPU for the placement opportunities, the first thing you should keep in mind is that you are competing with 10,000 to 15,000 students in CSE, so for the placements you have to study according to that. Teachers are good over here. According to my experience, some of my friends who are in different sections have told me that they are having bad teachers, so it's your luck.
Infrastructure: Classrooms and libraries are very spacious, ventilation is good, in summers AC is turned on the whole day, so the rooms are cold in summers. I am not living in hostel, but my friends who are living in the hostels told me that the hostels are good, but they are costly. In 2nd year most of my friends shifted to law GATE or green valley, which are the places near our college. The food of our mess is also okay, not so good not so bad.
Faculty: Teachers are quite helpful and also qualified enough to teach us. If we ask doubt to them, they clear it very nicely. Teachers also depend on your luck, as I told some of my friends who had bad experiences. The semester exams in our colleges are not tough. If you pay attention in class, you can get good CGPA.
Other: I chose this college because I have no other option left for me. My last option is LPU, which is like a mini town. Everything you need will be in the college, and also the population of LPU is much more than Jalandhar, it seems to be, but no doubt if you are coming to LPU for the enjoyment. You will feel like you are in heaven, but if you want to be placed in a company, I think LPU is not for you.

If you are going to utilize the LPU facilities, its gonna be a good journey for you.
Placements: There are a lot of students pursuing B.Tech CSE in LPU, the competition is a little high. The highest package in LPU is in 2018, of 3cr. The average package offered is 8LPA. Top companies like Google, Microsoft, and Flipkart come to pick students from LPU. The placement is very good compared to. The students get placed based on their CGPA. Students should maintain a good CGPA for better placements. 90% of students who are doing engineering are getting placed from LPU.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of LPU is the best thing. LPU is 600 acres with modern infrastructure. Students can utilize all these facilities. There is everything in the campus itself, malls, a hospital, and everything for arts, sports, and industrial skill developing facilities, libraries, a lot of canteens, etc. The hostel facility is also good.
Faculty: Teachers are highly skilled and qualified, very helpful and friendly. The teachers are highly skilled in teaching and industrial teaching too. They are not only teaching the students, but also they are preparing them to become industry ready, as they develop their soft skills in communication and for interviews. The exams are of two types, MCQs and objective, based on subjects. When we score overall weightage of 40 out of 100, we will pass for the new semester.
Other: I have chosen this course because of my passion for teaching and coding. The best thing about this course at LPU is that we can have a lot of fun studying this course, as they provide many sorts of events, clubs, etc. Sometimes there will be events happening for students to take a break from studying and chill. When we talk about a crowd, College is filled with many students and is very crowded, with students from different parts of India and even from outside of India. The college surroundings are very well maintained. The college is providing scholarships for students with an exam called LPU NEST.

LPU is good but expensive as compared to opportunity or knowledge.
Placements: LPU placement services are good, as there are many big companies that come and give placement opportunities, such as Capgemini, TCS, Cognizant, etc. Talking about the highest package, it is above 50 LPA. 85% of students get their offer letter before the last semester.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of LPU is phenomenal, there is everything that a student needs for their education, starting from a great library to good quality of practical labs in each field. They have great professors who give you guidance whenever you need. LPU also has a great campus where you can get many opportunities to learn and grow.
Faculty: Teachers have good knowledge of their field. They provide guidance in their respective field, but sometimes when they are not in the mood, they don't give any attention. Some teachers are not even good in their respective field, have an ego, and on. The curriculum is relevant, like they teach you everything to make you industry-ready, but you have to work on your own. Semester exams are sometimes very tough, and sometimes medium, but never easy.
Other: Other information, like they have a great sports coach for different fields, like every field. If you like sports, they provide a cultural event. They organised various tech events like gaming, hackathons, coding competitions, and many more.

Average college with good marketing.
Placements: In my course, the average package is around 3 LPA. Some of the Top Recruiting companies are HighRadius with a package of 6-8 LPA. This year, around 50% students got placed. Whereas in the previous year, around 80-90 % students got placed. Maybe due to AI and market changes. The highest package was around 10 LPA in Increff, and the lowest is around 2.5 LPA in root analysis. Some of the Top Roles offered in my course (B.Tech Biotechnology) are Business Analyst and Data Analyst. Some students get selected for sales roles.
Infrastructure: Our facilities are average. Wi-Fi is available for Computer lab work and works fine. Labs are okay with average equipment and facilities, don't expect big equipment and materials for higher-level research. Classrooms are also okay with not-so-good benches and other facilities. There is a high scope of improvement. The library is great with great facilities and a number of books. Hostels are okay as well. Food is also average, like what you can expect from a mess.
Faculty: Teaching quality is okay, not very good. Some teachers are knowledgeable and some are not. But no teacher is great at teaching students, except 1 or 2 if you are lucky to get one. The course curriculum is relevant, at least better than that of other private universities. Semester exams are difficult and not very easy to pass. The passing percentage is 40% overall. Most of the work has to be done by students if they want to get a good CGPA or gain knowledge.
Other: Events on the campus happen often, but are not worth the time, and most of us don't get time to attend or enjoy the events. The campus crowd is very much. Students get good scholarships, which is why many students join this university. There are some extracurricular activities like dance, music, etc, that the university provides, but students have to join and make time for that besides their studies.
