Is srm good or lpu good for CSE.

Question

Arya Sharma · Answer

For CSE, both SRM Institute of Science and Technology and Lovely Professional University are decent choices, but there is a difference in how the course environment shapes up. LPU has a more diverse campus, which naturally brings more interaction among students. In a course like CSE, being around different ideas and staying involved in activities such as coding clubs, hackathons, and lab work alongside academics can be very helpful. LPU can be considered a suitable option for those looking for a more active campus with wider exposure during the course.

Think with V · Answer

If you compare Lovely Professional University and SRM Institute of Science and Technology for B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering, both universities are good private institutions, but many students prefer LPU because of its larger placement ecosystem and wider industry exposure. One major advantage of LPU is the number of recruiters visiting the campus. The university invites a very large number of companies every year and offers thousands of placement opportunities to engineering students. The average package for many technical programs at LPU is usually around 7 to 9 Lacs per year, and top students have received very high offers, sometimes above 50 Lacs and even higher international packages. Big companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, Cognizant, and Bosch recruit students from the campus, which gives CSE students strong career opportunities. SRM is also known for engineering education and has good placements, especially in its main Chennai campus. Some reports show that the average package for CSE students is around 7 to 9 Lacs per year with the highest packages around 40 Lacs in certain placement cycles. However, the overall number of recruiters and placement opportunities is often larger at LPU because of its very large campus recruitment network. Overall, if you want strong placement exposure, a huge campus, and many recruiters visiting every year, Lovely Professional University can be a better choice for CSE. At the end of the day, success also depends on your coding skills, internships, and projects during the four years of engineering.

SRM generally has competitive peer quality in CSE placements. LPU offers large-scale placements, multiple CSE specializations (AI/ML, Data Science, Cyber Security), and good infrastructure. Overall, LPU offers broad exposure and high placement volume.

Manjot singh · Answer

Lovely Professional University is generally considered a good option for CSE among private universities because the programme offers industry-oriented specializations, strong placement training, and exposure to modern technologies, with placement success rates often reported around 90–95% for eligible students and many recruiters like Microsoft, Amazon, Capgemini, and TCS visiting campus, while average CSE packages are commonly reported in the range of about ₹7–12 LPA (with higher packages for top performers); however, outcomes depend heavily on your coding skills, projects, and internships due to large student intake, so it can be a solid choice if you are proactive and focused on skill development throughout the course.

SRM has a long-standing brand name, especially in South India, while LPU stands out for its huge campus, strong industry exposure, flexible curriculum, and wide placement pool. LPU also gives more hands-on opportunities through projects, hackathons, and electives if you're proactive. Overall, CSE at LPU is a solid choice if you want practical learning and diverse exposure, not just classroom theory.

Samreen Begum · Answer

What makes LPU unique is its B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering programme with such a deep curriculum, touching on AI, ML, cybersecurity, and full-stack development, together with state-of-the-art labs and collaborations with industry. CSE jobs are excellent, with the highest package being ₹64 LPA from Microsoft to the Class of 2025, and the average for top 10% being ₹14.97 LPA, while mass recruitment was conducted by more than 1,500 recruiters like Google, Amazon, Cognizant, TCS, and Accenture for more than 85% of the eligible students. Admission in 2026 requires 60%+ in Class 12 (PCM), through LPUNEST/JEE/CUET, with scholarships up to 50% and our fee around ₹11-14 Lacs total.

SRM and LPU are the best private educational institutes but being alumni of LPU I can only tell you about the CSE programme at LPU. There are a few points I would like to share about why CSE is good for LPU. Good Placement: LPU has a good placement record for CSE students. Every year more than 500+ companies including national and multinational companies visit LPU for placement. A few of them are Microsoft, Amazon, Adobe, etc. In which they are placed. The maximum package availed for CSE is 42 lacs. Per annum by Microsoft. LPU has a very good placement and achieved awards for employability also. The main thing for placement that I liked there is that LPU provides placement classes to the students from the first year, which helps students prepare for placement until their final year of the programme. Scholarships: LPU provides scholarships to bright students every year worth crore rupees to all the students based on their academics, extracurricular activities, and other factors. Faculty: All faculty members are well qualified from IITs, NITs, Iims, and top-ranked universities all over the world. Tie-ups: B.Tech in CSE has tie-ups with industries that help students to explore themselves more in their field such as IBM, Intel, Xebia, Upgrade, etc. Specializations: CSE students get many specializations while studying CSE to enhance their knowledge according to their interests such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Cloud Computing, Cyber Security, Data Science, etc. Apart from this, many opportunities and scholarships are there in LPU while studying for bright students in academics and extracurricular activities. I hope this helps
