I completed my MCA from LPU in 2016. I enjoyed the university’s vibrant and entertaining campus life, which ensures students never feel lonely outside class. The university has 60+ student organizations or clubs, focusing on personal development and excellence in all aspects of life.

I completed my Master's in Computer Applications from Lovely Professional University in 2022. LPU is one of the best universities in terms of studies, placement, faculty, and campus. The university's overall curriculum is quite academic-friendly, and the professors here are good at mentoring students. They are highly educated, and most hail from prestigious universities like IITs and NITs. The teachers are really helpful in all aspects. They not only aim to teach students but also to help them become successful.

The faculty members are young and energetic. They prioritize the overall development of the students, emphasizing excellence not only in academics but also in various aspects of life. If you're preparing for government exams or any other competitive exams; they are always available to support you whenever needed. All professors are PhD holders and are experienced. I consider myself fortunate to have such exceptional professors here at this university. 

Yes, LPU has been approved by the UGC.

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.

As per the mixed student reviews, LPU B.Arch students start getting placement opportunities at the beginning of the 5th semester. Around 80% of students get placed. The university has tie-ups with various agricultural firms like Raj Renewals, etc. However, the placement scenario is not the same for B.Arch students as for the Computer Science and Electrical branches. To achieve a good opportunity, of around INR 4.5 Lakhs per annum, the student should have a good portfolio. Also, the internships can be paid or unpaid and the highest stipend offered was INR 1,50,000 by Microsoft last year.
