Do all the rooms in the LPU hostels have air conditioning?

A
Admin Posted On : May 7th, 2024

No, not all LPU hostel rooms have built-in AC.

However, there's a good chance you'll have access to air conditioning. 

Here's why: 

  1. Over half the rooms do have air conditioning facilities.
  2. If your room doesn't have AC, the hostels provide coolers upon request. 
  3. Additionally, each room comes with two fans to ensure air circulation.

The LPU housing department seems to prioritize student comfort by offering various cooling options to suit individual needs. If you have a strong preference for AC, you can inquire about availability during the application process.

Is it allowed if I want to live outside the campus at LPU? If yes, how many percent of students live outside the campus?

A
Admin Posted On : May 7th, 2024

Any student can reside outside the campus and not opt for the LPU hostel. It is up to the students to decide where they want to opt for the LPU hostel rooms. Approximately 20-30% of students choose to live off-campus, as they believe that the independence it offers is more beneficial. Some students are also day scholars. As an off-campus student, you can still access library and canteen facilities.

I'm interested in living on campus at LPU. Can you tell me how many rooms are available in the hostels?

A
Admin Posted On : May 7th, 2024

While I can't provide the exact number of rooms available, LPU offers many rooms across its 9 boys' and 7 girls' hostels. Each hostel has 11 floors, with an estimated 25-30 rooms on each floor. This suggests ample space to accommodate students. If you'd like a more precise count or have further questions about housing options, I recommend contacting the LPU housing department directly. They'll be able to provide the latest information on room availability and application procedures.

Is LPU good for doing computer science engineering?

A
Admin Posted On : May 7th, 2024

I am a student of B.Tech CSE at LPU. So I can provide some insight into the CSE program offered at my university-

  1. Faculty- The CSE faculty is decent, and consists of both good and bad teachers. 
  2. Placements- Out of all the branches, CSE has the best placement figures at LPU. But the placements are not as good as advertised. Top MNCs like Google, Microsoft and Yahoo do not actually recruit from the LPU campus. 

Instead, the students work hard and clear GATE to get admission into IITs for their M.Tech. After completing their higher studies from renowned institutions, these students receive high paying job offers at top MNCs. 

But good companies do visit the campus with job offers, along with some startups. The companies that pay good packages worth more than 8 LPA select very few students from the campus (3-4 students). Such companies are Vmware for example. The rest of the students are placed in mass recruiting companies and receive packages around 2-4 LPA. You may not receive offers from a core company, but nonetheless, you will get a decent job offer if you work hard during your B.Tech course.

The main problem is the increasing number of admissions into the CSE branch. Because of this, in the coming years, job opportunities will have much more competition. 

LPU offers plenty of opportunities and exposure. Make good use of the resources, and learn coding (C,C++, JAVA) and communication skills. Doing so will open decent job opportunities for you when you graduate.

A
Admin Posted On : May 7th, 2024

The fee structure at LPU varies according to the course opted. I am a B.Tech student at LPU, so I can shed light upon the fees for my course. 

The B.Tech course fee at LPU (for those who have qualified the LPUNEST) is INR 1.40 lakh per semester. But those who opt for particular CSE specializations have to pay INR 1.70 lakh per semester. The B.Tech Hons. in CSE cost INR 2 lakh per semester

LPU offers both theoretical and practical knowledge and provides internships, live projects, field visits, guest lectures, and more. Students have access to a lot of resources, libraries (online and offline), and research papers. 

Being an LPU alumni, I also had the opportunity to participate in a lot of extracurricular activities. I could enroll for clubs, join societies, read, do theatre, swimming, etc. there was even a gym and the hostel was equally good after a tiring day. 

Last but not the least, the placements. LPU has an amazing placement record and most of the students are able to get placements and pre-placement offers. There are also designated classes to prepare students for the placement drive at LPU. Many companies offer jobs at LPU with really high salary packages.
