LPU is a university which will also follow the guidelines given by GoI because this university is also concerned about the health of the students, faculty and every single person with whom they are dealing. Rather, I came to know that LPU has taken the major initiatives for the new start of session which are as follows: 1. Wearing of mask by all 2. Daily sanitation 3. Strict rules of movement 4. All the hostel rooms and buildings to be sanitized and unnecessary movement of anyone is prohibited 5. No big gathering 6. Thermal scanners 7. Distancing to be followed in sitting in class as well I. e leaving one seat and then next student will sit 8. Extending the timings of 9-5 so that there is no loss of class 9. Classes to be scheduled on weekends as well to avoid the loss 10. MOOC courses to be allotted to the student 11. Strength of class to be mellowed down. After coming to know these initiative, I was bit relaxed. LPU believes in delivering what it claims that it is doing. Waiting for this pandemic to end soon so that economy starts recovering.

COVID 19 crisis has impacted the scholastic system upside down posing a huge challenge to the education sector. Educational institutions were being shut down, to keep up the momentum and motivation in the virtual world, LPU has been engaging its student and staff remotely through online platforms and has taken many initiatives during the COVID 19, to have a lesser impact on student education and career. 1. Fully online application and admission process - From filling up of registration form to conducting the entrance test, including the interview process everything is online. 2. Online Payment - LPU provides online methods for payment, it can be done through credit card/Debit card /online bank transfer/ UPI. 3. Online Classes- Major problem faced by students during this pandemic was the cancelling or delaying of examination but LPU stood out from other universities and institutes in conducting timely examination and declaring results The deadly coronavirus outbreak which has taken the entire world by storm has also impacted the education sector and particularly students a lot as schools, colleges and universities have been shut, various exam has been postponed or cancelled. To ensure the safety of the students and the teachers, the government had ordered all educational institutes in India to remain closed until March 31, 2020. Keeping that in consideration, Lovely Professional University has begun virtual classes for the students which they can attend from the comfort of their home or the hostels. LPU is also conducting proper, needed temperature and other related check-ups for every person who enters the campus. All the schools, staff rooms and cabins at LPU are being sanitised. The Chancellor of LPU, Ashok Mittal mentioned that to engage the students and to make up for the loss of study time during this period, they have resorted to online classes. LPU plans to continue teaching through online lectures, video calls and presentations during this time of lockdown. Many final year students are yet to join the companies where they got placed earlier and this break from studies due to the lockdown can impact them so for their benefit also, LPU has adopted this model of virtual classes.
