Our college has excellent infrastructure, and this college is the best to have a hostel experience.

Placements: Out of 22 students, 1 student got placed from our course. The average salary package offered was around 2 LPA to 3 LPA. None of the students opted for internships due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As it is a diploma engineering course, junior engineer posts are offered. Most of the students apply for higher education rather than placements.

Infrastructure: Our college provides 24x7 Wi-Fi facility, and the labs are well-equipped. Classrooms had smart class facilities, and libraries provide all types of course materials. The hostel was moderate, and the quality of the food served was good and healthy. If you want to take admission in LPU, I suggest you to avail hostel facilities and also the canteen. LPU has in-campus hospital and ambulance services 24x7. There is also a sports stadium, along with an Olympic size swimming pool and other games courts.

Faculty: Teachers here are knowledgeable and highly qualified. Their teaching quality is up to the mark. The course curriculum is relevant and also informative and practical-oriented. Industrial visits and field visits provided here make students industry-ready. Overall, you will get industry-ready and company-ready after the course.

Other: This course offered many subjects in which I was interested. Moreover, this course curriculum was known to me as I was interested in electronics gadgets. The communication part of the course should be better. Every day some, or the other events are organised in LPU. The campus crowd is good, and campus surroundings are its best. Scholarships are the best part of the university.

A review of Lovely Professional University.

Placements: Placements in LPU are huge, and the students who have above 6.7 CGPA are allowed to sit in the placements of maximum companies. Placements are increasing every year, and the world top tech giants are visiting LPU for recruitment. They offer a huge amount of salary packages to LPU students.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of LPU is awesome when compared to placements. The environment here is 10 times better. One thing you can notice in the hostel premises of LPU is that the workers of LPU will keep the premises clean, and they are trying to keep LPU very clean.

Faculty: Faculty members of LPU are very young, and the female faculty are very good. You will never get such faculty members in other colleges. Faculty members should have experience, but faculty members of LPU are less experienced when compared to faculty members of other universities. The faculty members completed their M.Tech and joined LPU.

Other: Hostels are good, but the hostel fee for 1 year is very high, and the food provided in mess is the worst.

Everything is good in the college.

Placements: The placement was not much good. Most of them went for higher studies. 3-4 students got placed. The lowest salary offered was 1.25/annum, and the highest package offered was 2.75/annum. Companies like Wipro, Cognizant, etc., came to the college and the roles of site engineer, etc. No internship is provided. There is a placement cell, it is not effective but takes care of.

Infrastructure: The facilities were good. Everything is available on the campus. Wi-Fi was good. The labs were up to the mark, classrooms were good, but no A/C. Food quality was very good in canteens. The hostel rooms are good. I didn't find any infrastructure problem during my college tenure.

Faculty: The teachers are good. They help us in every possible way. They are well-qualified and knowledgeable. They put every effort to make us understand the things. They teach on board, using a projector and explaining the theory. The student to faculty ratio is 50:1. We didn't get any industrial exposure.

Other: On a regular basis, the events and fests are celebrated there. The campus crowd is good and responsible. The connectivity is good. The scholarship is available in sports and study.
