Can I get job abroad if I done my B.Tech from UGC recognised university (LPU) but not AICTE approved.
-
LPU has been established by Punjab Vishan Sabha Act passed in 2005 u/s 2F of UGC Act 1956. It is recognised by UGC, member of AIU and for all the regulated programs by the relevant authorities. AICTE is a body which regulates the AFFILIATED colleges to various universities not the universities themselves. Coming to Jobs:
More than 700 companies visit the campus and hire thousands of students through over 900 placement drives. A huge number of former students work in government sector in India as well as many other countries. So there is no problem of any job after graduating from LPU. DVD. -

5 years agoHello dear, AICTE is a body which regulates the AFFILIATED colleges who are under the affiliation of various universities but not the universities themselves. Coming to Jobs overseas:
First of all if you are seeking a job in India then you must be aware of the fact that more than 650 companies visit the campus and hire thousands of students through over 900 placement drives. A huge number of former students work in government sector in India as well as many other countries. So there is no problem of any job after graduating from LPU. I hope this will help you. -
UGC is the apex body that approves universities in the country. The AICTE is only a statutory body, which deals with co-ordinated development and proper planning of the technical education system in the country. LPU is a well renowned university recognised by UGC, providing quality education, innovative pedagogy and unbeatable placements both national and international. LPU provides a great academic exposure to its students. It provides a chance to the students to attend guest lectures or workshops, so that they get to learn as much as they can. The students also work on live projects, so that they are able to apply their knowledge to...more

Of course, you will surely get a job abroad if you study at LPU because the LPU programmes are UGC approved and are valid across the globe. As far as the AICTE approval is concerned, it is not needed. According to supreme court, AICTE approval is only needed to the institutions, not to the UGC approved universities.

Hi, Yes, of course. You will not face any problems because LPU is UGC-approved. If a university is UGC approved then AICTE approval is not required. It has other accreditation also like Association Of Indian Universities (AIU), Council Of Architecture (COA), National Council For Teacher Education (NCTE), Pharmacy Council Of India (PCI), Indian Council Of Agricultural Research (ICAR), Bar Council Of India (BCI), The Institution Of Engineers (India), Institute Of Town Planners, India (ITPI) as well as International Memberships. LPU students are working across the globe. So, don't worry. Thanks.

Lovely Professional University is recognised by many Accreditation councils of India & thoroughly recognised by UGC in 2006.

hi,
Law placements at LPU are decent and growing, but you should keep realistic expectations. Top and proactive students usually secure internships and jobs in law firms, corporate legal departments, litigation chambers, NGOs, and LPOs. The university regularly organizes moot courts, legal aid camps, internships, and interactions with advocates and judges, which help in networking. However, like most law colleges (except a few NLUs), campus placements are not guaranteed for everyone. A lot depends on your mooting, drafting skills, internships, research work, communication, and initiative. If you build a strong CV, LPU can provide platf
