Question

Dharamveer Dheer · Answer

Lets go point by point: 1. Faculty : There are more than 700 Ph.D. faculty, with over 100 being post doctorate too ! LPU invests heavily in its faculty, the selection criteria is very tough and very few make the cut. A lot of FDPs keep on happening all over the year for faculty development and upgrading them. Large number of faculty are sent to top universities if the world for collaborative research and exposure. So the faculty is awesome, 2. Placements: LPU attracts over 600 companies to campus for placements, more than 100 are from fortune 500 club and more than 60 offer above 10 LPA. Total of more than 800 placement drives are held and thousands of students get placed. More than 30% of placements are above 8 LPA which is a huge figure. Hope this clears your doubts. DVD.

Thanks for sharing your concern University is good or bad, is always subjective. There arises individual differences which leads to these kind of statements. There could be a place which you may prefer and I may not. It could be because of many factors like situation, mind set, preferences etc. One of my very close relative is working in LPU. I have seen the transformation which took place in every aspect from basic land to buildings, basic teaching to pedagogical techniques, low placements to high packaged placements and many more. Every rising institution would have many competitors who would try to spoil the name and fame of the organisation, so I don't believe in the statement that LPU is not good university. I understand the norms of admission and the discipline which university wants to inculcate among the students is little high but again it is for the welfare of the individual. I firmly believe that discipline is the key to success whether during studies or at job. Apart from this, the connect which organisation is trying to make among the teacher and student is great which no other university or institution is providing. LPU provides many options to the students at various platforms like special division is set up which assists students activities. For faculty also much stress is laid on the career development by promoting FDPs, inculcating research, appreciating faculty for teaching and research. No other university spends on the growth of a faculty. I think a University is considered as good if it covers two entities I. e students and faculty, which LPU is taking good care for that. So, LPU is not only good, but it is the best University. I must say you are at right place. Don't worry about what people say.

Hello! Just like there are two sides of coin, so can be the reviews! People review the brand name as per their experiences, some may have a good one while other can have the bad one. As per my experiences, I want to share my views over it. I believe in the fact that, When you are doing really great, people will always make something out of nothing to expose negative side of yours, So is in the case of brand name. As per my knowledge LPU is doing really great in the field of education. Every year many students from all over the nation enroll their name for the admission in this institution, so there must be some astonishing reasons that students get attracted towards the university, out of which im mentioning some down below. 1. Infrastructure: LPU's infrastructure is one of the biggest & best in the World. 2. High Placements Future belongs to technology and Lovely Professional University's students with their firm earnestness are keeping no stone unturned in running shoulder with the industry bigwigs on a whooping package of about 1 crore. 4. Diversity LPU being the largest Private University in India having 30000+ students studying in more than 200+ courses, which includes 6000+ international students from 70+ countries, LPU has lived up to its expectations, with the quality of education satisfying these international students, the placement opportunities are amazing as well. 5. Faculty : Excellent and Experienced faculty members. 5. Campus Life: At the end of a tiring day or week, everyone expects entertainment and refreshing ways to uplift their daily boring schedule. But here in LPU, they conduct so many big events where they call popular celebrities and help their students to feel more alive and energetic, which make the life in LPU more of fun. Only Good Trees Are Pelted. No One Wastes Time On Fruitless Trees. No sane person will go harvesting fruits from trees that bear None. And LPU is a brand name and that's why few people are so against it and may be posting bad reviews about it. I would suggest you to go after the achievements that LPU owns, then you can decide and think of a better review of your own.

Hello! There is no such thing in the universe which is never criticized, no matter how good or bad it is, some may even say IITs and Iims are bad some may say their college is the worst and in this case, its Lovely Professional University. It is totally up to you that what kind of impression you are going to create in your college and how active and how much hunger you have to grab the opportunities, Some students had a bad experience at their colleges probably due to their attitude towards their academics and other things. No wonder you are going to blame your University if you will not study for the entire semester and will not participate in the things provided to you by the University for your betterment. As far as I know, LPU is so far the best Private University in India, I am saying so because a lot of my relatives graduated from LPU got success in their life and they always recommend others to go for LPU for graduation and higher studies. Some of them even got placed in companies like Amazon, SAP, L'Real India, Federal Bank and more. They always tell me that how good and supportive their faculty members were and how LPU helped them in achieving their goals by providing them proper guidance, industry level training, better study environment, separate placement classes and what not. I never found those guys criticizing LPU for anything, in fact, they all enjoy remembering those days they spent in LPU and all the fun they used to do during events and late night studies and much more. I don't understand why students start blaming their university due to their bad experience which is only due to the lack of their interest and because of no participation which shouldn't happen, You should have the strive to grab the opportunities.

Arka, don't go by the rumours. Good things/ people/ places always have detractors. Those who couldn't make it to LPU or those who didn't perform well and marred their chances to get a good placement are going to talk bad only. But the truth is LPU has wonderful placements and highly qualified faculty from IITs, IIITs, NITs, etc.

Rapidly changing business landscape requires young leaders to not only understand developing economies but also develop a global perspective at the same time in order to be an integral part of the growth of the economy.

Hello! Reviews (bad or good) are a part of every organisation be it educational, corporate or government sector. Although, whenever there is a bad review, we just listen to it and believe what we hear, while in cases of good reviews, we get a bit skeptical about how can something be this good, right? Human tendency its normal! Same is the case here. I will just give you a brief overview on what makes LPU a good university. LPU is said to have one of the largest campuses in India which is true. The university is spread across an area of 650+ acres with all the basic amenities and facilities within its campus. Right from shopping complexes to various eateries, you can find everything here. Now coming to the academics the faculty members of every department ensure that their students are well-nurtured in the basic and the core subjects of the course. Apart from this, the university also holds a good placement record with some of the well-known companies visiting the campus. Every year, a good number of students pass out with flying colors and a job in their hand. Along with this, LPU also trains students who wants to join the Indian Armed Forces or any other government sector. Now, if we talk about the pre-placement phase, believe it or not, the placement department puts in their best efforts to make sure that each and every student gets a chance to sit in the campus recruitment process. Pre-placement trainings are held wherein the placement faculty members work on improving the weak points of the students, enhance their aptitude and logical abilities as well as work on the students personality development. Having said this, LPU also hosts a lot of extracurricular activities, on-field training, and many such events to boost the confidence of the students. In a pool of Lacs of students, not everyone can be impressed, right? So, the bad reviews that you come across are probably from the frustrated lot who probably couldn't enjoy their campus life. To believe this or not, I will leave up to you but you can always check their website to learn more.
