Dharamveer Dheer · Answer

Always remember, your placement is on basis of two things: 1. How much you have learned from your degree and how much you can apply in the realtime situations in your job. 2. The initial platform which is provided by a college of high repute. In this case LPU Normally int the placements for Agriculture students, LPU takes the cake. Last year in a first for Agriculture institutions across the country, Kavita Faman a LPU student secured a package of INR 1 CRORE with a food processing international major Monsanto LLc. So whichever course you want to do, you must make a informed choice. I would like to name a few companies that visit LPU- Nestle, VLCC Health Care, HDFC, Rallis India, SYNGENTA INDIA LTD, WIPRO LIMITED, and many other firms. The average package is 3.27 to 5.6 LPA. Wish you all the best. DVD.
