I pursued MBA Hons from LPU which has proven to be a good choice for me. The hostels, college life, placement opportunities, necessary shops, and everything required at one step. You will have a lot of extra curricular activities as well to do. Hence, the NIRF ranking, UGC accreditation and international accreditations are well deserved.

My friend is pursuing BArch from LPU. What makes LPU stand out from other architecture colleges is the curriculum - the topics included in its syllabus include design approach, material and construction, climatology, services, aesthetics, urban context through schematic drawings, and 3D visualizations.

LPU is currently ranked at the 16th spot by NIRF. It is considered among the top 5 private colleges for Architecture, Design and Planning disciplines in India.

During my friend’s course, he pointed out the following points:

• LPU is recognized by COA - the Council of Architecture (CoA).
• Study tours, including visit to architectural and heritage sites, helped him with the maximum exposure to learn the technicalities of architecture.
• He got to work on industry-relevant projects and case studies that helped him build his portfolio and get good projects. This makes LPU’s BArch program stand out from the rest.

LPU offers a BTech CSE course. The syllabus of BTech CSE at LPU blends industry-relevant projects, academics, and good placement opportunities. Pavan Kunchala from the 2022 batch of BTech CSE was offered an INR 1 crore package via LPU placements.

From the 2023 placement data that I have, the highest package secured by a CSE student was INR 54.7 lakh, followed by a Mechanical Engineering student securing the highest package of INR 54.9 lakh.

It is not just about more than just a few students getting placed with average CTCs from a private college like LPU.
