    Both LPU and Chandigarh University are well-known for engineering, but if I talk about LPU, I feel it gives an extra edge to students. The campus of LPU is very big and full of opportunities where you meet students from all over India and many countries, which helps in learning beyond books. The engineering programs are updated as per industry needs and LPU also has tie-ups with top companies for internships and placements. Many big recruiters like Microsoft, Amazon, Infosys, and Bosch visit the campus. The labs, research facilities, and innovative projects encourage practical learning, not just theory. The university also supports stu

    Dear reader,

    As a LPU students this is my perspective towards asked question.

    The esteemed engineering department at Lovely Professional University (LPU) emphasizes solid industrial ties and a multicultural, large school community.  Given that both universities provide top-notch educational possibilities, you should carefully consider which specialization, faculty specialization, and campus culture best suit your academic and professional objectives.

    For more information kindly contact their concerned depaertment.

    I hope this information helps.

    If you ask for my opinion, I would recommend Chandigarh University over other academic institutions. Chandigarh University is one of the leading institutions in India, offering students a unique blend of professional and academic excellence. In the 2021 NIRF overall ranking, Chandigarh University is better than the LPU. Chandigarh University ranks 52nd among all universities in India and 77th among all universities in India. CU ranks 16th in architecture, 51st in pharmacies, and so on. Tricity only has 3 universities in the top 100 university rankings. Chandigarh University ranks first among private universities with the highest overa
