LPU - Lovely Professional University Jalandhar Answered Questions

As per my knowledge and experience as Alumni LPU Faculty hired is at par as per the requirements of UGC. Hence one could go Government UGC site to be able to understand more details on this. Well, that's more of a judgemental question, nobody could be 100 % precise with this information. But overall, the quality of faculty members is good in almost all the reputed Universities across the country. Faculty members hold good industry experienced, hold related degrees, and are recruited through a tedious process. Though having such a qualification need not mean one can teach well, I agree with that, but the system of how the faculty's environment work is good. If a faculty is not giving his best or delivering good lectures then students have the free option to report the same to the HEAD OF DEPARTMENT and ultimately THE HEAD OF SCHOOL and GET THE TEACHER REPLACED or CHANGED. There are frequent feedback sessions and suggestions taken of the faculty members from the students on how well they are delivering in the classes. The curriculum is tough at times, but if you understand the system, then it's easy, it is also advanced. For more details, visit the LPU website if you would like to explore additional details on the same.

Last but most important, never restrict yourself from exploring. Study hard. But Enjoy to your the fullest. This is probably the last time you can enjoy anything. At the end of your college days, there is a monster called real life waiting for you. I had my best time in college.
