    I am a B.Tech Mechanical Engineer from LPU itself. During our learning phase at LPU we had explored various events where we were given space to bring out our creativity and technical know how. We had encouraging teachers who also use to contribute fully in nourishing our spark. LPU believes in ENGAGE-ENLIGHTEN- EDUCATE. Through the university events like YOUTH VIBE & EXPLORICA we got the opportunity to showcase our talents. They truly are a transformer.

    Better is mechanical. Automobile is constrained, while mechanical is a diverse field. Moreover, the previous year placements and student quality is better in mechanical as well as scope (with reference to LPU curriculum and my past experience). Hence mechanical will worth you more than automobile.

    B.Tech in mechanical engineering is much better than automobile. Mechanical engineering covers all aspects of the mechanical study that are available. Automobile is strictly confined course. As others have said, mechanical placements are also better. That does't mean that automobile is bad or whatsoever. Automobile too has broad scope and trained engineer in the field have high demands and get good payscale. LPU is a good university that offers multiple courses and very good placement.
