It is a dream university with a good infrastructure & co-curricular, sports & cultural activities.

Placements: The highest salary package offered is around 42 LPA in Microsoft. The average salary package offered in the CSE branch is around 5 LPA-6 LPA. From the CSE branch, around 80% of students get on-campus placements. There are many internship programs at LPU. Top recruiting companies here are Microsoft, Wipro, Google, Yahoo, etc.

Infrastructure: In LPU, many facilities are provided for our respective courses like an online library, and a separate app for students to ask doubts and to check their attendance and results clearly. LPU has the second biggest library in India. In the hostel, rooms are average. The food served here depends on your taste, and some find it tasty, while some find it average. It is a completely Wi-Fi-enabled campus.

Faculty: Many of the faculty members are Ph.D. holders and from IITs. They are very good in their respective fields. The exam pattern is somehow difficult as it has 2 minutes time limitations. So it will be hard for many of the students. The passing criterion is students must have at least 75% attendance to attend university exams, and also depend on class assignments.

Other: Our college has a good infrastructure and co-curricular, sports, and cultural activities. It's worth it.

It has good teachers, average placements, very good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: In LPU, our super seniors got placed in some of the MNCs with a decent salary package. The percentage of placements is very low. Our seniors got placed with a salary package of about 7-8 LPA, which is the highest salary package for architects in LPU. You cannot expect a high salary for an architect in India. It depends upon your academics, CGPA, internships and knowledge. Your hard work matters the most for a high salary package irrespective of the course. You can learn a lot in LPU like many professors and architects around the world visit LPU to give seminars, lectures, etc.

Infrastructure: LPU doesn't compromise in terms of providing good infrastructure to the students. Architecture students experience a lot since most of the projects are done outdoors. We used to elongate the whole campus for various assignments. LPU is a very big campus. Thus the infrastructure is very good to stay. There is a 24x7 Wi-Fi facility, and the speed is pretty good. Labs and classrooms are sanitised and clean. There is a separate library for us located in our architecture block, and it contains a lot of books. There is also a central library for all courses on the campus, which is huge with every book. There are separate hostels and apartments for girls and boys with 24 hours security. After 6 pm, all girls must go to their respective hostels for safety reasons, but it is not applicable to boys anyway. Hostel food is average. Since I am a south Indian, I did not find mess food good. However, stalls are available near every block, and you may choose them over the mess. Non-vegetarian are not served on the campus. Still, if you like to eat non-vegetarian, then you can go to restaurants which are located everywhere outside the campus. For non-vegetarians, there is a food factory inside the campus located near the playground, and the taste is very good. Since LPU covers 1,000 acres of land, there are many playgrounds for both outdoor and indoor games. The gym center is also available, and you can do your workout in the morning and evening. Medical facilities are great with 24 hours emergency services, and you don't need to step out from the campus. We have ambulances, so in an emergency, an ambulance can take us to the hospital within 3 minutes. Doctors are experienced and friendly.

Faculty: Faculty members are good, and they take some time to teach the topics crystal clearly. They are very helpful, and all are well-qualified and extremely knowledgeable. The quality of teaching can be better, but they make sure students understand. We have some practical subjects, which we used to focus on in every aspect because those are the subjects which are commonly connected to other subjects. In our course, we would be improvising the design techniques practically and digitally. It makes students industry-ready since they have a lot of internships from the 2nd year. We have compulsory tour visits to various architectural sites to understand the designs of our course better. If you concentrate, exams are very easy. You can score more than 80% in every subject. LPU gives 5 chances for 1 to reappear to clear, which is very good. Every student can always get a chance to clear their exams. Backlogs are very common in every course, and it is totally up to you to get a backlog unless if you haven't cleared the subject in those 5 chances. LPU exam system is the best.

Other: I have chosen this B.Arch course in LPU to learn it in every way possible. We have many students around the world in every course in LPU so that we can learn a lot in terms of knowledge, language, etc. The best thing about our course is more practical knowledge, and we have a lot of tours in India, which is a better way of learning. LPU is the most crowded university, and it has 30,000 students around the globe. There is a lot of connectivity among everyone and everywhere. There is always an event running every week on the campus. LPU also celebrates the largest festival like One India and many other fests, parties, etc. Scholarships are good, and every student can obtain a scholarship depending on their performance in the LPU NEST exam. It is an entrance exam for students who are willing to get a scholarship.

I am satisfied with the college in all aspects.

Placements: Our college is among Punjab's best colleges and is ranked among the top ten promising architecture institutes of India by Higher Education Reviews provided by pass-out students and some others.

Infrastructure: The university is spread over 600 acres, and they didn't fail to make sure that students are provided with every facility inside their campus itself. Considering education, different departments are unique and well planned with all basic facilities are provided within.

Faculty: Both experienced senior and junior architects are appointed as faculty members, who have vast knowledge in theory as well as practicals in this field. They are student-friendly, and anyone can approach any faculty members for any doubt at any time. They will be there to guide and help us to build our career.

Other: B.Arch is quite interesting since it is a combination of architectural design, structural design, application of mathematics, environmental science and some others too. This course is considered as one of the highly pursued courses, and also architects are held in high esteem. It is the best course if you have a creative mind within you.

It has the best security rules compared to all universities and has a well-designed infrastructure.

Placements: This university provides lots of placement drives and also provides opportunities to each and every person to have placement interviews. Companies which will visit the campus for placements are both top-most and small companies. The salary package offered totally depends on the students' talent.

Infrastructure: Lovely Professional University is the best universities in this India, and it also provides very good facilities. It is a nice place to spend your 4 to 5 years of life in one place, and it provides us with all the educational facilities. The library is open for all and has a proper guidance stag for it.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and qualified from the best colleges. Most of them have lots of experience to share and makes students go in the right path in their course. The teaching staff has open-minded, which makes it very easy for students to open up their thoughts.

Other: I choose this course because I like architecture. The university conducts lots of events and might, and it is the best university as it provides many scholarships for many students.

I am satisfied with the college. The college provides high security, but the food served is average.

Placements: Almost 90% of the students got placed. I have no idea about the salary packages offered. None of the companies visits our campus for placements. Around 50% of the students got internships. There are no placements in architecture. We get hired based on our internship.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the building is not up to the mark, and there is no good ventilation facility. Classrooms are average, and they need to be improved. All the required facilities are available here, and there are good and proper water supply and electricity. The block is fully occupied with students and teachers. The college facade is average, and facilities are also average. The infrastructure is not satisfying, and the environment is not good.

Faculty: Teachers are knowledgeable, but sometimes they are very rude. Architecture is a field of interest in which students create their designs. The college offers internships to students, which make them effective to lead towards the new development of buildings in the environment. The course curriculum is relevant, and it makes students ready for future generations.

Other: I chose this course because I am interested in it. I wish that the college should provide more practical knowledge. Events, fests and extracurricular activities organised here are good. Scholarships provided here are good. The campus crowd is good, and its connectivity is also good.
