Question

Puneet Singh · Answer

Dear Sameeksha Kapoor, LPU, SRM, and VIT are the best private institutions for engineering programmes. Coming to mechanical engineering, being alumni of LPU I would be sharing the details of this programme at LPU only. My friend did B.Tech in ME from LPU and got placed in an MNC. School of Mechanical Engineering is the best Mechanical Engineering college in Punjab, India equipped with 40+ labs and modern machining to provide an extra edge to the existing curriculum which focuses on developing a strong basic knowledge. A Mechanical Engineering student goes through an experiential learning process surrounded by high-end the latest labs and equipment including robotics and automation. International tech-fests and competitions encourage all-round development in our students in addition to giving them international exposure. Highlights of the programme: Credit Transfer, International Exposure Option: Semester Exchange. With Quality of Education, Placements in LPU is also amazing, with the top brand in the world coming for Campus Recruitment provides great opportunities to its students. The highest package offered for the programme is 31 LPA. Some of the companies that visited LPU for mechanical engineering are - BOSCH ENGINEERING AND BUSINESS SOLUTIONS LTD BOSCH AND SIEMENS HOME APPLIANCES GROUP BSHG DRISHTI SOFT SOLUTIONS PRIVATE LIMITED ANGLO EASTERN SHIP MANAGEMENT LTD etc. Hope this is helpful! Thanks!

Hello Sameeksha Kapoor, the three institutions that you have named or all well known for their academic excellence. Even though the information about a particular branch is not available one can SEE the ranking of these three institutions in the all India ranking that has been released by different agencies and is available on the net. But I would suggest that you should choose the institute that would be easy to commute from your residence since all three are equally good. Best wishes to you.
