Review of LPU - Lovely Professional University.

Placements: In our college, placements are pretty good, but the competition is very high. Our college received so many admissions this year, which is nearly 50 thousand. There is a scope for our batch that we can get better placements if we work hard. For our course, there are low placements. In biotechnology, there are a few core jobs. If we need a well-paying job, then we need to work so hard.

Infrastructure: I can't say that the infrastructure is awesome. Our course blocks are clean and well-managed inside. The outside look is average. But the winning facilities are top grade. There is a Good Wi-Fi speed, which is nearly 10 GB per second, but in working hours, it is 2 to 3 GB per second. It is the same in the hostel as well.

Faculty: Our faculty members are the best. I cannot guarantee that every teacher is the same, but I can say we can often find good faculty members. Good ones always help students in research papers, patents, and exams as well. They give us good pointers for exams, and exams are top in our college. They are conducted very strictly and securely. The paper will be tough, and we need knowledge to answer it.

Other: I chose this course because I love my course. Biotechnology is my dream, and I can say I chose one of the best colleges for it. My course offers the best output for students. I am learning serious knowledge in science and technology. In biotech, we learn not only about Science but also about computers and AI. I wish that our college would improve its practical and industrial knowledge. Our course requires it a lot. All extracurricular activities conducted are good. Events are conducted frequently for students to join.

I’m strongly satisfied and worth it.

Placements: About 70-80%+ students were placed in recent batches of 24-25. The highest package is around 24-30 LPA, the lowest package is 3-4 LPA, and the average package is 12-13 LPA. Capgemini, Accenture, Wipro, TCS, Cognizant, ITC, Flipkart, HDFC, ICICI, DXC Technology, etc., recruited. 55-65% got internships in Decathlon, HUL, KPMG, Deloitte cognizant etc. Marketing analyst, financial analyst, Fintech, Digital analyst, Product manager, sales analyst, etc., roles are offered.

Infrastructure: 5G Wi-Fi, well-furnished classroom, benches with charging switch, AC, projector and whiteboards. Library with more than 10,000+ books, the latest computer labs, water supplies with a watercooler, garden with sitting benches, greenery flowers, food courts, terrace canteen, malls, sports complex. Hostel rooms are well-established rooms, AC, non-AC (cooler will be there), water cooler in every hostel floor, exercise machines are located in hostel premises, friendly warden, canteen in every hostel, departmental store, mess facilities also available, good food quality, everything is digitally run through UMS, LPU touch app. There are all types of playgrounds.

Faculty: Most teachers are PhD qualified or well-skilled in the subject they work & teach. Teaching is quality-based, and practice, experience and exposure most of the time. Everything in the course curriculum is relevant and up-to-date with current requirements and digital teaching, AI use and working with AI involvement. As per the industry requirement and industry-ready. If a student be attentive through the semester and studies as per the syllabus and guidance of the teacher, the exam is not that difficult, it is an average level for every student. The passing percentage is 40% overall theory and 50% practice.

Other: My course offers both graduate and post graduate degree in 4 years, but after the new education policy, it has changed to five year course. In my course, it took 1 year less time and proper skill set development with more opportunities than BBA and MBA students. No improvement is needed. The course is perfect. There are multiple clubs and sports tournaments, campus fest, and one Indian cultural fest, Holi, Diwali, Dussehra, and dandiya nights.

Best college with a good atmosphere and infrastructure.

Placements: Good placement, and above 80 percent of students get placed every year, according to the college. There are 100 percent placements with non-tech also, and Google, Microsoft, and IBM are the big companies that appear. The top roles in the robotics industry are offered with a package of 3 crore per annum, and the basic is 4 LPA.

Infrastructure: I'm from B.Tech CSE, and the infrastructure and Wi-Fi are fantastic. The classrooms are maintained very well. The library has a good number of books and a good place to study, and also a hostel is very good. All facilities are there, like games, indoor and outdoor. Good mess food, and there is a medical emergency like having a university hospital.

Faculty: The teachers are passionate about their subject and have a good amount of knowledge about it. They provide PDF and the required PPTs. My course is very good and substantial for software, and the semester exams are good up to the marks we need basic knowledge in the semester, which is enough for pass marks.

Other: CSE cloud computing. Nothing is more important than participating in events and gaining good knowledge. Fest and many more are conducted.

Placements are not up to the mark, huge opportunities available only if you study hard.

Placements: In my batch there were 100 students on average in campus placements for ECE. They got 20 to 30 people and that too at a very low package and they were not satisfied because if you got one opportunity, you had to take that, otherwise you would get terminated. The highest package in my batch was 8 LPA and the lowest package was 2.5 LPA. Top recruiters were LG, Wipro, Capegemini etc. Out of 100 students, 30 students got placed as Embedded Engineers, Software Engineers and VLSI Engineers etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and the hostel were very good. The hostel security is also good, various food will be served for north and south indians students, whatever they want but bit expensive for the hostel and food. The course and the labs were very good to use.

Faculty: Faculty were very helpful and qualified as many hold PhDs. They were very knowledgeable and they were updated on the current trends and whatever current trends were running. They had to tell us to learn about subjects. The course and the curriculum was relevent, after you complete the course, you would learn all the things from the course and you would be ready to put in the effort. The faculty is very talented and the way of teaching was very up to the mark.

Other: I had chosen this course because I had a passion towards the Electronics and some passion for coding also, I wanted to know how things were going to work in electronics. I had learnt embedded systems and learnt about networking with this course. They were good in the course, I just wanted them to improve the lab part. Events fest was also up to the mark, great fun when the students got stressed.

LPU, choosing it is up to you.

Placements: Maximum people get placed in our college, the highest might go till crores. The highest went around 1 CPA and two are placed, one is from Robotics and Automation and the other is M. Tech guy. The lowest would be 3-4 LPA and most get placed through mass recruitment by companies averaging around 5-6 LPA. Companies include Google, TCS, Microsoft, Wipro and many, but the good companies hire the best students’ skills on upper preference as compared to GPA and the others hire Teach Mahindra, Eazy Diner, etc.

Infrastructure: Labs are good, you get Wi-Fi facility at good speed in both college and hostel. Library is amazing, has a lot of books and even a good place to study; silence is a must. Classrooms are decent. Hostel facilities are decent. Rooms get cleaned often. Mess food might be good some days but will start to hate it. Canteen is good. College is really outstanding when it comes to sports. Inter-hostel tournaments happen. Olympic size swimming pool exists. Two big cricket grounds. Sports complex exists where you can play badminton, basketball, boxing, fencing, volleyball, and even martial arts.

Faculty: Like most, teachers teach okay, because it is up to you to prepare when it comes to exams. Some teachers just glide through the PPTs, there are some teachers who are highly qualified but still you would not be able to understand their lectures. Teaching is average. Course curriculum is relevant but I don’t think it is industry relevant, they taught PHP in one semester which is outdated. Semester exams are moderate to easy. Most people pass around 80 percent. You can even ace an exam by preparing 2 days prior to the exam and it depends on your intellectual thing.

Other: There is a lot of crowd, literally a lot, you might feel congested at some times when the classes get over after 5. But the fests, exposure you get to meet a lot of friends across all states in India. You can improve your social network. Extracurricular activities are good, you can dance, sing, do art and all stuff. There is a separate building for this in our college. You get a decent scholarship and also the fees is less as compared to that of other private colleges.
