Hie! I don't think so why people are saying these negative statements about LPU. Because the following traits would justify that it is indeed a good university. A Campus-To Fall in LOVE with ! LPU campus is spread over 700+ acres. I get to know when I visited to enroll myself
It has all the facilities in one campus, let it be the hospital, shopping mall, hotel, banks, ATM machines campus is one of the safest campuses maintained by over 400 full-time security professionals, most of whom are experienced ex-military personnel. I was surprised to SEE the diverse dining and shopping options available within the university campus. There is a state-of-the-art 8-storey mall which has shops of all possible needs, departmental stores, and gadget stores too. Diverse options of dining are also available within the campus, which range from traditional Indian sweets to modern coffee shops. Most importantly, it has various banks with more than 50 ATMs inside the campus; hence, students need not go outside for any kind of transactions. The campus of LPU is so vast that it has its own postal code and office. I would recommend you to visit this university once if you are planning to get admission for yourself or your anyone else. Thanks to e-rickshaw and local auto anyone can now commute easily inside the campus. It really is one of the largest and well built university in India.

There are a lot of careers after MCA that one can take on. These can be Software development, Trainee programming, Web designing, and System management. In the course of Masters, a lot of industrial projects are also given to students to explore their interests.

Dear Sachin,
Lovely Professional Universit is good for B.Sc in hotel management in terms of placements. The highest package offered for Hotel Management is 8.5 LPA and the average package is 2.4 LPA. My friend completed his BMHCT degree this year in 2021.
Very good placements record with minimum 10% students selected as Management Trainee (Junior Executive level) till date and the placement is with brands like Cox & Kings, Carnival Cruise, Jet Airways, Oberoi, Taj, Leela, etc.
Internship: Industry internships in top national and international five-star hotel brands like The Leela Palace, ITC, Taj, Oberoi, The Grand, Marriott, etc.
The best thing I like about LPU about placement is, they provide placement classes to all the students from the very first year who opt for the placement. With the help of this, they can prepare themselves for placements till the pre-final year because the companies will start visiting for the recruitment of students from a pre-final year. Some of the students go for internships also in their final year.
LPU received an Employability award by Aspiring Mind in 2020 for best placement Institute in India.
LPU is ranked 10th best university for Training and Placement in 2019 by Knowledge Review
LPU got the Golden Star Award 2018 for being the University with the best placements in India.

I hope this helps
