Personal experience of my college, LPU.
Placements: As far as I know, the placements are good in my college. Almost all the fourth-year seniors whom I know get good placements according to the current job market. The highest package in the previous year was 2.5 Cr, and usually, the average package is around 8–9 LPA. The placement cell of this college is also good. It tries its best to ensure that all students who opt for placements get placed.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is really good, whether we consider classes or hostels. All classrooms have AC. We have different academic buildings for different courses. Most academic buildings also have lifts, which is a really good thing. Our hostels are also good, and the newly constructed hostels are even better. Overall, the infrastructure is good.
Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified. Many teachers have Ph.D. degrees, which is a good thing. It makes teaching quality better. Although some faculty members are not good, everything cannot be perfect. The course curriculum is also good. For example, CSE students do not have to study Chemistry or perform chemical experiments, which I noticed my friends from different colleges have to do. The exams can be challenging sometimes, but some exams are easy, some are moderate, and some are difficult.
Other: I opted for B.Tech CSE because of my personal interest in this subject. Multiple events are going on in our college. Almost every week we have different events, which makes campus life really lively.

It is a value-for-money college.
Placements: LPU provides very good opportunities. Now it depends on the students if they are capable of cracking those interviews. I agree that LPU does give great opportunities in placements. Almost 70–80% of students get placed. The highest package is above 30 LPA. Every student gets an internship through university. Companies like TCS, Blinkit, Zomato, EY, and others come for placements.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good. Hostel facilities are good, providing good food, but it is a little expensive. Classes are also good, with fully AC classrooms and smart classes. The campus is very big. We get a fully functional university mall inside the campus. Wi-Fi is also good with very high speed, and the full campus has Wi-Fi. The library is very big and has multiple floors. Medical facilities are good, as we have a full university hospital inside the campus and a 24/7 ambulance service.
Faculty: Teachers are good, friendly, supportive, well-qualified, and knowledgeable. Their teaching style and methods are also good. We follow lecture, tutorial, and practical methods of teaching. The course curriculum is relevant to our course. It is very helpful from an industry point of view. The exam level is good. They follow a 30% MCQ and 70% subjective pattern in exams. The overall pass percentage is 40%.

The lowest package is 3 LPA and the average package is 6 LPA. The top recruiting companies are TCS, Cognizant, Capgemini, Wipro, etc. The internships are not too bad top5 5-10 percent of students secure internships during the 3rd year ending.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi connectivity is good in classrooms and hostels. You will get two types of Wi-Fi one is LPU wireless, and the other is Jio-net. The LPU wireless is unlimited, while Jio-net is 1 GB per day on a mobile number. Labs and practical training in LPU are good with modern tools, high-speed internet through which students get practical exposure. Classrooms are very big because LPU has a very large crowd. There are a minimum of 60+ students sitting in a classroom. The central library is very large with 5 floors where you can borrow books for up to 7 days.
Faculty: Most of the staff are highly qualified and hold M.Tech and Ph.D. degrees. A few teachers are with a B.Tech degree as well. The course curriculum is regularly updated with current technology and market scenario. There is a PEP session in summer for placement readiness. The semester exams consist of Continuous assessment, mid-term, end-term, and attendance. If you study 3-5 days before the exam, you can also get good marks.
Other: I chose CSE because I have a strong interest in technology like software development and problem solving. There is a policy in the university, if you sit in the drive of a company and are placed, you are not eligible for packages below 1.5 times the obtained placement package. There are lots of events that happen every month. The campus crowd is very huge compared to other universities. Scholarships are based on intermediate marks, JEE Main, and LPUNEST.

All you should know about LPU.
Placements: One had to rely more on developing one's skill set, as professors helped students develop theirs. Placements, however, depended on individual performance, but the college provided great exposure. Even though the starting on-campus placement salaries were low, it was a great choice.
Infrastructure: Classrooms were interactive, and I really loved them. The experienced professors made understanding concepts much better. The Wi-Fi network was excellent, with seamless connectivity throughout the campus. I loved the college life. Apart from curriculum books, the library contained books that helped students develop a lot of skills.

My honest experience as a CSE student at LPU.
Placements: In LPU, you will get around an 80 percent placement rate overall for the 2026 passing batch. Top recruiting companies are Google, Amazon, Accenture, BNY, Morgan Stanley, Cognizant, CompTIA, and Cisco. The campus average is around 6.5 LPA- 7 LPA, the highest on campus goes around 55 LPA-65 LPA every year. The top 10 percent of students in CSE has average package of 14.5 LPA-15 LPA. Earlier most of the companies come for full-stack developer roles, but in the past 1 year, AI-ML roles as well as this role are also coming.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure and the facilities are good here. The room size and the mess food change according to the hostel. Wi-Fi speed is good most of the time, but sometimes the speed decreases drastically. The hostel facilities are wonderful, like a gym, shop, late-night canteen, freedom for boys all night on campus except around girls' hostels.
Faculty: Most faculty in the department are well-qualified with PhD backgrounds. LPU highlights this a lot a mixed bag some excellent, some just reading slides. Teaching quality is engaging with practical examples and good for theory but less hands-on. Some professors are especially helpful with doubt-clearing sessions and mentorship guidance. The class sizes are large, so individual attention is limited. Faculty are responsive outside class hours too. During the placement, mock drives are also scheduled.
Other: I chose the CSE branch because of my interest in programming and web development, strong career prospects in tech, family/senior recommendation. LPU's placement record by some of my homies, and most importantly, scholarship via LPU NEST. LPU's CSE programme specifically appealed to me because of industry tie-ups, exposure to AI/ML and cloud electives, and the size of the tech recruiter pool during placements. Others are some special batches of different companies. Tech fests and hackathons alongside the university-wide One World and One India cultural fest. CSE students often get involved in coding competitions, hackathons, and tech society events.
