Dear Aparna, Lovely Professional University is one of the best institutes for engineering in the state of Punjab. I am saying this because I am alumni of this University, I did MBA but have one friend who has done Civil Eng. From LPU. He told me B.Tech in civil engineering course involves so much more than theoretical know-how. In addition to classroom lectures, students here learn via hands-on experiences which include site visits, lab sessions and so on. PPTs, animations and similar technological techniques are a regular part of classroom teaching too. The course material provided here enables to practice civil engineering using up-to-date techniques, skills, and tools as a result of life-long learning ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data. The course benefits the students by giving them an understanding of professional, ethical, legal, security and social issues and responsibilities. The Department aims to provide students with a technical foundation incorporated with the industrial need together with the breadth needed in the profession via advanced study or field training, or as a base for other pursuits. In order to get this develop LPU have timely workshops, and seminars. Coming to faculty, they are one of the best mentors to students & everything here is up to the mark. Most of the faculty staff is from reputed organizations with their the highest degree from various reputed institutes such as IITs, NITs, etc. Apart from that, faculty have got The college arranges frequent industry visits. New innovative ideas were framed into working models and were showcased to 10000+ school students. LPU supports innovation and research and hence provides students with such opportunities. Industrial visits are organized to nearby construction sites from time to time. More than 70% core company placements in civil Most of the MNC company recruited students like DHARAM CONSULTING, ANTAL INTERNATIONAL LTD, CLEANMAX SOLAR, CVENT, E-LITMUS, GREYB SERVICES PVT LTD, CTS. Etc. The industry experts are involved deep in development of the design of curriculum to match up the industry expectations. They frequently refurnish what they deliver. Students are placed in companies like Cleanmax Solar, Al Rakha (UAE), Dharam Consulting, Era Infra Engineering Ltd. , KEC International, Simplex, WSP India, XL Dynamics, CVENT, Rishishwar Construction, Premier Developers and Contractors, etc. Hope this answer will help you!

Hello, Yes, you can opt for B.Tech Civil Engineering I did my B.Tech in Civil Engineering from LPU, So, I will give you the exact picture of Civil Engineering at LPU. Apart from being one of India's best civil engineering colleges in Punjab, Lovely Professional University takes pride in obtaining the NABL accreditation. In order to enhance the learning experience of the civil engineering students, the University has established a laboratory named, Unilab mechanical testing of building and construction material. Unilab is established as per ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and abides by the technical administrative procedure according to the guidelines. National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) is a Constituent Board of Quality Council of India (QCI) that provides CAB (Conformity Assessment Boys) accreditation. This comprises of third-party valuation of the technical capability of testing including medical and calibration laboratories, proficiency testing providers, and reference material producers. Lovely Professional University is the only private university in India that has attained the NABL accreditation in the field of mechanical testing of building and construction materials. With better theoretical and practical knowledge, students are much more competent than any other university. LPU has very good placement records and good infrastructure, companies visit campus, L & T, Simplex Piles Ltd, Era Infrastructure, Gammon India Ltd to name a few. Industrial visits are organized to nearby construction sites from time to time. There, you can SEE actual construction work going on. Be prepare to have dust on your shoes (believe me, it will be worth a lot). You have to ask questions yourself and trigger interest in the activities around you. There is an internship programme which could be an opportunity for getting work experience and increase your chance to get employment after you pass out. But, of course, your academic record should be good to get this placement option. Career oriented Software training in project labs is given. To work in this profession, you are supposed to be familiar with software like MS-Project, STAAD Pro, MX Road, etc. None the less, you will be trained in Auto CAD in your second year which is a prerequisite for any Civil Engineer. I hope I am able to justify you well. For more details, you can visit the website and contact LPU counselors. !

Dear Apoorva, I did MBA from LPU and I had many friends from Civil Engineering, so I have idea course,Placements,Curriculum, etc. One of my friend told that,This programme at LPU include a blend of hands-on experiential learning and theoretical foundational courses. The very best include a mix of traditional learning in laboratories and classrooms with cooperative programs that allow students to gain work experience. Others may include independent research with faculty members another good bet for individuals hoping to go directly into research or the workforce upon graduation. Coming to faculty, they are one of the best mentors to us & everything here is up to the mark. The faculty is supporting if one is willing to learn. They teach the subjects with their full effort. Writing board, screen-projector, labs are used to teach. The college arranges frequent industry visits. New innovative ideas were framed into working models and were showcased to 10000+ school students. The capstone project is an integral part of B. Tech program in which students have to pick a live project based on practical problem-based scenario (ideally from industry) and work for six months under a mentor and present a report at the end. This is beneficial to enhance your presentation skills. Industrial visits are organized to nearby construction sites from time to time. There, you can see actual construction work going on.

Yes, but there are some colleges which are better than LPU such as GNE, Thapar, PEC, etc. In LPU, civil engineering labs are not maintained so try for other colleges.

Hi, I won't prefer you to opt for LPU other than for CSE as this is the branch it is known for. For any other thing, you won't be able to find any good thing other than infra. Placements of all the other branches are so worse that if you will see it once, then you won't pursue engineering at all.
