What type of college is LPU? Is it good for software engineering?

Dear Piyush, the demand of software graduates is very high in companies due to software based application development and process maintenance tasks. To get a reputed job, a candidate must have requisite skills and knowledge of this field. I can understand the concern of you. It is very difficult situation for you to decide. Every university is doing good for his students for their best career. There are certain parameters such as placements, infrastructure, faculty level, environment, growth etc. To be considered while selection of institute for pursuing education. It a big question in the mind of a student as well as parents that what will the offers and placement scenario of educational institute when the student will be about to complete the course. LPU is an international university with more than 700+ tie ups with industries and companies to support academic and placement of his students. My cousin sister done her B.Tech in CSE from here and she got placed in Cognizant with top package. Other friends of her also placed in other companies such as Capgemini, Tech. Mahindra, BOSCH, Amazon, SAP, Texas Instruments, Cadence, Sandisk, Moserbear. Their junior Tanya Arora who is recently in news, got placed in Microsoft with 42 LPA (<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://m.timesofindia.com/spotlight/lpu-one-of-the-few-indian-universities-from-where-google-microsoft-hire/articleshow/75690005.cms" style='word-wrap:break-word;'>https://m.timesofindia.com/spotlight/lpu-one-of-the-few-indian-universities-from-where-google-microsoft-hire/articleshow/75690005.cms</a>). So, we have no doubt that LPU is best and a bench marks for placement and internships of students not only in CSE but also in other courses. One more point I want to highlight here is that the scholarships offered by LPU helps a student without any monetary burden. Now, LPU has floated COVID-19 Front-line Scholarship for COVID survivors and their dependents as well which is the best possible effort it can provide to target every aspirant in this current scenario. So, these are the few points of LPU which will help you for your decision to take admission upto 31 May,2020. For more information you can visit university website or call toll free number. Good Luck.

Hello, I have done my Engineering from Lovely Professional University and I am a proud alumnus of LPU. Starting with my experience from the first year onwards, where we asked to join some Placement. Enhancement Classes, that day I wondering why there is a need of same at this early stage and then the day I was sitting in my placement drive, I recall all those essential points which were taught to me that day and those eventually helped me in securing my seat in an interview. One more point I would like to share that it is not just calling the company to the campus, but preparing the students up to such level that they can crack any interview is equally important. So, I have observed, LPU faculty members, put in a lot of efforts to get the students placed. So, preparing the students to such level is more important and putting up efforts for that is more important and that what LPU always takes care of. University has separate placement enhancement department, which focuses on overall development of students. University keeps on conducting, guest lectures, seminars, live projects, hands on training, sharing views and experiences by the experts and many more events which helps the students to broaden their thoughts and cope with the corporate world. In my batch I remember, almost 95% students were placed and there were many who got the multiple packages as well. I was one of them, I remember my day I am hopping around the campus and was looking around which option to choose, Finally I landed up choosing HCL, with which I am currently working as well since last 4 years and have received many promotions and hikes. All I dedicate that to my faculty members and mentors at LPU. They helped me in choosing the right decision at that time as well. Students are trained professionally from their first year onwards. The University provides maximum opportunities to students. It depends upon the students whether they want to grab the opportunity or not. Talking about my another life experience where we were asked to be a part of some live project in my second year and I was wondering, whether I am capable enough to be a part of such grand project from an MNC, but when eventually I started working, I realized I can do that and I had that much knowledge to be cope up with such projects. Also, such projects boosted up my CV and helped me in my placements as well as in my professional career. I hope this helps you.

Dear Piyush, Let me give some striking points of LPU's tech programs: Teaching pedagogy followed by the institution. If it is dependent majorly on theoretical part, then it will obviously difficult for every student, more the practical better it is. Case based and experiential learning are the best ones so far. Industry consulted curriculum : The curriculum is based on feedback and exhaustive consultations of industry experts. Relevant trainings: Students tend to lose the interest in the subjects which they feel are not relevant, this spills over to other topics too. Institution has to ensure that the relevant topics are taught or the relevancy of the topics be also taught along with. Co-curricular activities: Competitive co-curricular activities many times act as relief for students from the monotonous routines, these must be encouraged so that students add value to themselves learning new skills. Mentor-ship: The continuous mentor-ship, buddy system are essential these days for academic and emotional fallback for students. Developing the vision: The college must work on developing the vision of the students, more clear the vision, more interest they will develop in the programme. Hope you get the gist of the excellence of LPU. The stellar record in placements with over 600 companies coming to campus for recruitment is perfect icing on the cake. DVD.

Hi, I would only say LPU does not compromise with the academics at any cost. From this, you can easily judge how the university is making efforts for the growth of their students in a positive way. LPU is good for software engineering which is ultimately a part of CSE or IT. The staff is well qualified and most of them are Ph. This. The curriculum is built keeping in mind the current technology trends. LPU offers different specializations namely IOT, Data Science, Cyber Security, Cloud Computing, Machine Learning, Full Stack Web Development, Big Data, and many more. The placements at LPU are excellent. Many top recruiters visit the LPU campus to employ graduates, such as Amazon, Cognizant Technology Solutions, Capgemini, Bosch, TCS, and several other firms. Recently, a girl got placed at a package of 42 LPA. <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://m.timesofindia.com/spotlight/lpu-one-of-the-few-indian-universities-from-where-google-microsoft-hire/articleshow/75690005.cms" style='word-wrap:break-word;'>https://m.timesofindia.com/spotlight/lpu-one-of-the-few-indian-universities-from-where-google-microsoft-hire/articleshow/75690005.cms</a> Moreover, Amazon recruited LPU students with 28 LPA. More than 650 companies visit LPU every year for recruitment with an average package of 4-10 LPA. Every year visiting companies escalate in number and till date University has recorded the highest placements in North India. Thanks.

The question has been answered to CSE only, scenario is different for other streams. Yes, it is good for CSE. Out of all streams, LPU CSE has more placements in LPU. The placements what they were showing in ads is not real. They are claiming LPU students has got placed in multinational companies Google's, Yahoo, Microsoft. The fact is that till now Google, Microsoft, Yahoo didn't even visit LPU for placements they are just faking the figures students got jobs on their own. They just graduated from LPU and qualified GATE and completed Masters from IIT, and after working for years they got placed in top companies. Lpu has 0% credit in their success. Lpu keeps boosting these for years for attracting students. And mostly startup companies do visit LPU for placements and some good companies too. Few companies come to LPU with hefty packages around 8lakhs, but they will select students in single digits. Last year VMware offered 8lakh packages but their requirement is only 4 for students. Most of the students will get placed around 2u20134 lacks packages. But the thing is that their is huge strength for CSE, present year only 1st has more than 100 sections. It has been increasing year by year. Previous batches have less strength when compared to now, so number of students placed percentage were high but in coming years this scenario will change due to heavy competition. Not everyone will be placed in a core company, but you will be placed companies in other field. At least it will help you in getting work experience. It will be very difficult to get job on your own so, work hard in college days itself. Have some coding skills c, C+, Java, it will help you in getting job. And increase your communication skills. LPU provides you ample opportunities in developing personality. The fees is also affordable in LPU they won't charge any donation fee in lpu. When teaching is taken into consideration, I have few friends and seniors from CSE, as far I listened teachers were not upto mark not all teachers their are also few teachers who were good at teaching. It all depends on the faculty you got. And students passing from Lpu has technical knowledge less but their are also students who excelled in academics placed in good companies. It all depends on how you use the opportunities. Overall I can say CSE (only) good in LPU in terms of fee and packages it is offering.
