Question

Ayush Raj · Answer

I am a student at LPU and I can say that I am happy with all the facilities at LPU. LPU extends over more than 600 acres, LPU is the largest single-campus university in India, with more than 30,000 students from all over the globe, over 4000+ faculty members and staffs, offering more than 200 programme. If you are concerned about the standard of education in the university then without blinking you can go for LPU, I will tell you why. As the quality of education is comparably very good in the LPU and there are 43 Lacs+ books and e-books covering all the subject fields in the library to provide the extra knowledge of tech, sports, innovation, motivation to the students. As a 2nd-year B.Tech student of LPU, I can say with my experiences and suggestion of my various seniors, if you want a good placement in a product or service-based company and you are willing to explore and learn new things then just go for LPU. The main reason, why I choose LPU is the placement record, LPU is excellent when we look into its placement stats, major companies like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Dell, and other growing lots of companies use to come for recruitment of LPU students. Various companies visit LPU for placement drives every year, and it is awarded for the most number of placements in a year. After taking admission in LPU I decided to join some extracurricular activity to enhance my confidence and in LPU there are so many events use organized by the student welfare society, when I was started to join some events, that really boost up my confidence and there are so many people from the different background when I started to talk with them, I can clearly SEE some changes in my communication skill. So if you want to enhance yourself then LPU will be the best for you. Now I can say LPU is the best decision of my life.

Mir Aaliya · Answer

Hi there, Well, a very courageous question! Firstly, I am not in a position to judge such comparisons, I just share what I have experienced before. I suggest people to join LPU based on my own experience. I have been studying at LPU now from past 4 years, and I am highly satisfied with everything about LPU. Talking about academics, LPU has a an amazing Faculty, the scores of students are to crave for. The extracurricular activities are active throughout the year. The campus itself is so mesmerising that when students go on summer vacation to their respective homes, they crave for the hostels then. The residential facility at LPU is the best. The resources are on a large scale and students get benefitted every way. I would suggest LPU out of all, I am being specific for this. So my vote will go with LPU. Hope this helps. Thanks.
