At Lovely Professional University (LPU), the first‑year B.Tech classes (including CSE) for the 2026–27 academic session are expected to start with the Autumn Term (Term I) in August 2026, typically around the first week of August, following the reporting and induction schedule for fresh students. This aligns with the academic calendar which shows that the next term for new batches begins in August (around 10 August 2026) for all full‑time programmes, including engineering, after the completion of the previous session's summer term.

Traditionally, LPU also conducts induction/orientation activities just before the academic sessions begin, and exact dates may vary slightly by department and counselling rounds, so you'll receive official reporting details from the LPU admission office or your student dashboard (UMS/LPUTouch app) closer to the start date.
