Question

Harsh Pandey · Answer

Hi Vivek, these are a couple of universities and institutes that I can think of Mechanical engineering. IIT Indian Institute of Technology. MIT Manipal - Manipal Institute of Technology. Lovely Professional University COEP Pune - College of Engineering. VIT Vellore - Vellore Institute of Technology. SRM University Chennai - SRM Institute of Science and Technology. The LPU offers a B Tech in Mechanical Engineering which seamlessly articulates the concepts from basic Science to technology with relevant practice through lab and projects for building the problem-solving skills, keeping industry requirements in place for Design, Manufacturing, Thermal, etc. Specialisation. The Eligibility Criteria is (Qualifying Exam) Pass with 60% aggregate marks in 10+2 (with Physics Mathematics, and English or equivalent, subject to qualifying LPU NEST. For a candidate, who has not studied English as a subject, the condition of English may be waived off provided the candidate in his qualifying exam has studied in English medium. (5% relaxation to North-East states and Sikkim candidates/ Defence Personnel and their Dependents/ Wards of Kashmir Migrants) The course aims at enabling the student to Effectively build and communicate the solutions using learnings from basic mechanical engineering, basic sciences, mathematics, and computational skills and tools. He should have the ability to design using Design of Machine Elements theories and to create prototypes using relevant manufacturing technology. He should acquire the Capability of building efficient energy conversion systems using a basic understanding of Thermodynamics Heat transfer, and Fluid Mechanics. He should demonstrate the ability to propose cost-effective optimised solutions using simulated environments of Computer-aided design, computer-aided manufacturing, and computer-aided engineering. The highest salary package offered to mechanical branch students is 31 LPA, while the average salary is 4.8 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Bosch, ONGC, Ashok Leyland, Hitachi, etc.

Hi Vivek, there are many colleges and universities which offer course in Mechanical engineering. I will share with you the details of the course offered at LPU. Just have a look. The LPU offers a Tech in Mechanical Engineering. It is an Engineering programme which seamlessly articulates the concepts from basic Science to technology with relevant practice through lab and projects for building the problem solving skills, keeping industry requirements in place for Design, Manufacturing, Thermal etc. Specialisation. The Eligibility Criteria is (Qualifying Exam) Pass with 60% aggregate marks in 10+2 (with Physics Mathematics and English or equivalent, subject to qualifying LPUNEST/ JEE (Mains). For a candidate, who has not studied English as a subject, the condition of English may be waived off provided the candidate in his qualifying exam has studied in English medium. (5% relaxation to North East states and Sikkim candidates/ Defence Personnel and their Dependents/ Wards of Kashmir Migrants) If Candidate has 85 or more percentile in JEE (Mains), then LPU NEST is exempted. The course aims at enabling the student to Effectively build and communicate the solutions using learnings from basic mechanical engineering, basic sciences, mathematics and computational skills and tools. He should have the Ability to design using Design of Machine Elements theories and to create prototypes using relevant manufacturing technology. He should acquire Capability of building efficient energy conversion systems using basic understanding of Thermodynamics Heat transfer and Fluid Mechanics. He should Demonstrate the ability to propose cost effective optimized solutions using simulated environments of Computer aided design, computer aided manufacturing and computer aided engineering. Placements: The highest salary package offered to mechanical branch students is 31 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 7-8LPA. Top recruiting companies are Bosch, ONGC, Ashok Leyland, Hitachi, etc.

School of Mechanical Engineering is among the best engineering colleges in Punjab. I had some friends in Mechanical dept. And they had great things to say about the mechanical engineering department. LPU is the largest university in India and it has many highlights. As per the latest NIRF rankings released by MHRD LPU is: 1. Among top 80 Universities in India 2. Among top 90 engineering colleges in India 3. Among top 50 business management schools in India 4. Among top 30 Indian pharmacy colleges The university itself has the following accreditation: 1. UNIVERSITY GRANTS COMMISSION (UGC) 2. Association Of Indian Universities (AIU) 3. University Grants Commission - Distance Education Bureau (UGC-DEB 4. National Council For Teacher Education (NCTE) 5. Council Of Architecture (COA) 6. Pharmacy Council Of India (PCI) 7. Indian Council Of Agricultural Research (ICAR) 8. Bar Council Of India (BCI) 9. The Institution Of Engineers (India) 10. Institute Of Town Planners, India (ITPI) In terms of international tie-ups, the university stands apart from other universities in the countries. With the constant zeal to improve and provide endless opportunities to the students, the following tie-ups are a few feathers in the cap: International Association Of Universities (IAU), France Association Of Commonwealth Universities (ACU), UK The Institute Of International Education (IIE), New York Accreditation Council For Business Schools And Programs (ACBSP), USA The mechanical dept. Has more than 40 labs for experimentation works. Many brands like Voltas International, Honda Two Wheelers, Asahi India Glass Ltd. , Indo Farm Tractors Ltd. have been visiting LPU for recruiting mechanical engineers. Honda offered packages of 7.9 LPA, Hettich India and Giga Solar offered package of 5 LPA and 2.4 LPA to students of final year for internships. XL Dynamics, Anglo Eastern Ship Management, Hero MotoCorp, Hyundai Constructions, and many more have been recruiting students of mechanical engineering of LPU. As far as teaching is concerned, majority of the faculty members are Ph.D. and other are pursuing Ph.D. The teachers teach in a very effective way and follow the latest teaching pedagogies. The Mechanical dept. Organizes many conferences and guest lectures in which top management from leading mechanical industry takes part and deliver quality content to the students. In my opinion, LPU is best university to study mechanical engineering.

I had the same question when I was looking out for college for my B.Tech I was confused between Delhi Technological University, Delhi, and Lovely Professional University Phagwara. But after discussions, thinking, and recommendations from my relatives ( Allummni of LPU) I joined LPU. It was actually a great decision. As per my experience, LPU is the best place for engineering. I have not faced any kind of disappointment at any phase. LPU provides the beautiful infrastructure and all required resources to students and staff. I highly recommend that if you really want to make your career with a good level of education then you should go for LPU. My Decision for LPU was the best decision of my life. LPU alumni are working in top MNCs across the globe like Voltas International, Honda Two Wheelers, Asahi India Glass Ltd. , Indo Farm Tractors Ltd. etc. LPU Students have been offered International locations like Dubai and Oman by Voltas. The LPU school of Mechanical has well-qualified and experienced faculty members with specializations in various fields like Aerospace Engineering, Automobile Engineering, CAD/CAM, Engineering Design, Industrial Engineering, Machine Tool Engineering, Manufacturing Technology, Metallurgy, Robotics, Thermal Engineering, etc. The mechanical department has many feats to its credit: LPU alumni are working in top MNCs across the globe like Voltas International, Honda Two Wheelers, Asahi India Glass Ltd. , Indo Farm Tractors Ltd. , etc. LPU Students have been offered International locations like Dubai and Oman by Voltas. Students from Mechanical, Aerospace, Mechanical, and Mechatronics have gone on a semester exchange programme to France IMT Lille Douai Under the Student Exchange programme, students went to GC German Center for Advanced Engineering and Management Studies, Germany. Best Wishes! Arnav Alumni LPU.
