LPU School of Bio-engineering and Bio sciences is equipped with state-of-the-art Bio-process Engineering and Bio Science labs and believes in imparting knowledge to students through a practical approach to achieve mastery in plant and animal physiology. Our faculty works hard tirelessly in enabling students with the acumen to apply the findings of Bio sciences in the fields of medicine, forensics, nutrition and dietetics for the benefit of the community. School of biotechnology provides an ultimate learning experience with a commitment to innovation. Various guest lectures from experts and field visits are organized by the school. The school encourages R & D activities for students to get the benefit. Many students from LPU have successfully collaborated with foreign universities and research institutions. The department also inculcates entrepreneurship opportunities to build job providers of the future. First of all, I would like to say that LPU is one of the best Universities in terms of infrastructure, curriculum, amenities, and education quality. And being an ex-student, I was able to avail all the perks of such facilities. I have always wanted to contribute to the betterment of the food industry in India and thus, I wanted to pick only the best institute that could help me understand different concepts related to the food industry. After thorough research, I was able to come across LPU which specializes in areas like Food Process Engineering, Food Analysis and regulations, Crop Processing Technology, and Plant & Animal biotechnology. With a proper understanding of these concepts, I was able to enhance my skills that could improve my prospects in this industry. Apart from this, LPU also has some sessions that prepare the students for placements, personal interviews and group discussions. Personally, these sessions have helped me a lot in increasing my confidence. Since I was a student who would perform well in exams but was not able to showcase my knowledge in interviews and with the help of LPUs constant support and guidance, I was able to crack interviews and impress the potential employers as well.
