Is the Lovely Professional University a good college for civil engineering?

In my career spanning 20 years, Ive had experience working with several top private universities in India including LPU. So I think Ill do justice to the answer. LPU is not just a university, it is a universe in itself. No other college/university in India operates at such scale in almost each and every sphere of activity of universities. Coming to Civil Engineering, Some features of this highly acclaimed programme of LPU are: Contemporary Curriculum: To Instill knowledge in the major areas of Civil Engineering such as Structural Engineering, Environmental, Renewable Energy, Surveying, Remote Sensing and Intelligent Transportation. Professional Enhancement: In addition to core curricula, course offers subjects like communication, analytical and soft skills to enhance personality and employability. Industry Immersion: Trainings, projects and guest lectures collaborated with industries help to learn from real life situations Projects: Seminar and Project driven courses are designed to enhance technical and presentation skills Industrial Visits: Visit to dams, hydraulic projects, sewage plants provides maximum exposure to learn about industrial problems and emerging technologies Interdisciplinary Minors: Minor elective gives the students a choice to develop expertise in the interdisciplinary areas of interest for example Management, ECE and CSE/IT. Software Skills: Curriculum is equipped with 21st century digital technologies to make students industry ready. Industrial Input: Curriculum of the course is competent to impart skills as per feedback provided by premier organizations of industry and academia. Holistic Development: Participation in technical events, sports and cultural activities help in the holistic development of students Content delivery by industry experts Projects in collaboration with industry Internships to engage deeply in hands on real-life situations Credit Transfer: Student after successful completion of 2 years. At LPU may be given option to join partner/ receiving university abroad for the completion of programme subject to conditions and norms of regulatory bodies. There is ample information available on the internet about various placements etc. With respect to LPU as more than 700 companies visit the campus every year for recruitment. All in all I would say its a wise choice to go, if you are eligible and have passion for civil engineering. I've heard the application deadlines are very near. Hope this helps DVD.

As per my experience, LPU is Best OPTION. In Civil Engineering LPU emphasizes the evolution of manmade infrastructure as LPU understands how they have evolved to the present scenario. With the advancement of technology in leaps and bounds, the future of civil engineering in the years to come will be crucial, especially with the establishment of smart cities. LPU is nurturing our students to adapt and be equipped with this ever-changing scenario. To cater to these needs the department is structured into five vibrant centers of studies: Structural. Hydraulics. Environment. Geotechnica. Transportation. As per my friends experiences, those are graduated in civil from LPU. LPU is Imparting knowledge through site visits, case studies, real-time designs of structures. It has well-equipped lab facilities like concrete testing, cement testing, soil testing, surveying, highway material testing, and structural mechanics. They are Teaching through PPTs, videos, images, and animations. Manual, as well as computerized structural designing skills with CAD and soft-wares like STAAD Pro, MX Road, are provided to the students. Expertise knowledge of planning in construction is provided to the student both manually as well as software MS Project. For more information you can visit LPU website.

I don't think LPU will be a good choice for civil engineering. LPU don't provide you any internship. Don't think by advertisement that it is good in civil engineering. LPU will be a good choice for CSE, ECE. There are very company for placement for civil engineering.
