hi,
The reality of LPU placements is that opportunities are good, but outcomes depend a lot on the student. Many reputed companies visit the campus, and some students get very high packages, especially in CSE, IT, and Management. However, not everyone gets a top package; most students receive average to decent offers based on skills, communication, and internships. Placement support like aptitude training, interview preparation, and industry projects is strong, but students must actively participate and build profiles. In short, LPU provides a big platform, but your personal effort largely decides the final placement result.
