I enjoyed a lot in my last 5 years in LPU.
Placements: In my MBA batch, almost 90% of students got placed in different companies overall in India. And the highest package will be 18 LPAs of Trident Group for product management specialization. And the average package is 10 LPA. A 20 LPA package is offered for business analyst specialization. Overall, it is good.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of my course is for 2 years (8 modules), and the hostel facility is also good and safe for both boys and girls. We have mess facilities available too, like basic and standard, and the cuisine is North Indian and South Indian, both of which are there. And in the hostel they have stuck shops also.
Faculty: Faculty members are very helpful and knowledgeable, and the curriculum is also good, and the exams we gave in 2 years (8 modules) mean 8th time exams. And the facilities are so friendly and kind-hearted. They will help you in every situation of your ups and downs.
Other: And I would like to add about my campus that it's a huge university and full of events, and fests happen every year.

It is an average college but the best among private colleges.
Placements: 100% of students were placed last year but not everyone got a good package; the average CTC is around 6 L per year. The highest CTC was near about 30 L and the lowest could go up to 3 L. Everyone gets an internship; it could be paid or unpaid. It gives you the best placement compared to any other private college.
Infrastructure: The classroom and infrastructure are good. Free Wi-Fi with average speed is all around the campus. Mess food is not so good. 1st year can stay in a hostel but after that, leave outside. There is a hospital with free consultations with doctors. Other private colleges can provide better infrastructure but at a very high cost.
Faculty: The curriculum is up-to-date but the faculty is not that good. Teaching quality is average. The course is relevant; it makes you industry-ready. Exams are quite tough but not so tough that you can easily score a 6 CGPA. However, it is the best college among private colleges.
Other: I chose this course because placement is good in it. If you have any option other than top B schools like IIMs, it is the best college for you.
