LPU - Lovely Professional University Jalandhar Answered Questions

It depends on what you mean by “as good, ” but broadly speaking, Maharaja Ranjit Singh Punjab Technical University (MRSPTU) can be okay for B.Tech — but Lovely Professional University (LPU) remains a stronger, safer bet overall.LPU is well-established and consistently ranked among India's top private universities: in 2025 it grabbed 49th overall in the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) rankings and 48th in the engineering category.  Students and reviews often praise its modern infrastructure, broad course offerings, and strong industry-connections that support placements and internships — key for B.Tech outcomes.On the other hand, MRSPTU seems to offer a more modest outcome. Student reviews note that only around 40–50 % of students get placed, and success may heavily depend on the student's own skills.Infrastructure and faculty quality seem “decent but basic, ” and there are fewer indications of strong industry tie-ups or campus-wide placement drives. So if your aim is better placements, stronger peer competition, industry exposure, and a robust campus experience, LPU tends to deliver more consistently. If you're fine with a lower-cost, lower-profile option and are prepared to push yourself to make the most of it, MRSPTU could suffice — but it carries more risk and likely less bang for your buck.

Having some of the best placement histories, LPU employs 2,200+ recruiters on campus. Large companies such as Google, Microsoft, Amazon, TCS, Infosys, Capgemini, Deloitte, Bosch, Cognizant, and JP Morgan frequently employ students. The best thing about it is that students have a genuine chance to get dream employment with top brands since organisations from a variety of industries, from management to technology, trust LPU graduates.

Ensure the photo and signature on the ID match those on the admit card.

Dear reader, As a LPU student this is my perspective towards asked questions.LPU, Thapar, and SRM all provide excellent B.Tech. programs in computer Science engineering.  Particularly noteworthy are LPU's varied specializations and strong industrial partnerships.  To guarantee that students acquire useful, employable skills, the institution actively collaborates with businesses like as Google to provide innovative programs in domains like artificial intelligence, data science, and cloud computing.  Although SRM and Thapar are reputable universities as well, LPU's commitment to experiential learning through these partnerships gives them a clear edge in educating graduates for the fast-paced IT sector.For more information kindly visit their concerned website.I hope this information helps.

The highest salary offered to B.Tech students during the recent placement drive at Lovely Professional University (LPU) was reportedly ₹ 2.5 crore per annum — this was for an international placement. For domestic campus-placements in the same cycle, the top package stood around ₹ 1.03 crore per annum. This shows that while the headline “2.5 Cr” number reflects exceptional international offers (for a small number of students), the more realistic high-end domestic offers are in the 1 Cr+ range.
