Hi Saurabh, Being an Education Consultant I got a chance to visit there at LPU also. What a wonderful infrastructure and highly qualified faculty they have. If you take my opinion, to take admission in LPU is little difficult as compare to Amity University. Simply means, LPU is focusing to the above average students. # For satisfying the Eligibility criteria of B.Arch in LPU, either candidate must be NATA qualified having average score of 80 minimum or JEE Main paper II must be qualified along with this Candidate musthave minimum 60% aggregate marks in 12th grade with English must be studied as a subject and a candidate should also have 60% marks in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Thus, if I am not wrong, it is little difficult getting Admission in INDIA&quot;s one of the premier School of Architecture at LPU. Though, there is a 5% relaxation to North East states and Sikkim candidates/ Defence Personnel and their Dependents/ Wards of Kashmir Migrants. You have 58% marks in 12th. So, If you belong to any of these categories then you will get relaxation of 5% aggregate marks. Programme Outcome is: Comprehend design approach and inter-relationship of function, circulation, structure, material and construction, climatology, services, form, aesthetics and apply the knowledge in built environment, Interpret the facet of architectural design and urban realm context through schematic drawings, project report, physical model and 3 D visualizations, Analyze and appraise. LPU has already started the Online Admission and one can proceed through their website: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="www.lpu.in" style='word-wrap:break-word;'>www.lpu.in</a> All the best for your future.

As an education consultant, I keep an eye on what is offered in the institutes. As per your query of comparison, both institutes are doing good but when it comes to exposure, expert training and placements, no one can beat LPU. LPU floats more than 250 programmes out of which B.Arch is one high in demand. # The Architecture Programmes are approved by Council of Architecture (COA), a statutory body of the Government of India for the regulation of the architectural education and practice of profession as required. There is a different school for B.Arch I. e. School of Architecture that provides differential programme outcome from basic to the advanced one I. e the School inculcates practical implication and go beyond the conceptual understanding. # The programme is structured in five groups taking care of the every dimension of the growing and ever changing design industry viz.

Hi, Selecting an institute is one of the difficult tasks. Out of Amity University and LPU, definitely I gave my vote to LPU because I know how the education is imparted and what efforts they are doing for their children. The way they are providing education is commendable. The architecture department is approved by COA and serves the purpose to create professionals who have a manual as well as computerized planning and designing skills on leading design software. The programmes are structured in five groups taking care of every dimension of the growing and ever-changing design industry viz. Core Courses, Supporting Courses, Skill Development Courses, Management Courses, Elective Courses. The academics focus on the development of student's creative skills by encouraging experimentation with new materials and processes with great concern for material conservation. Many companies visit LPU for the recruitment like DLF, India, Larsen and Toubro, Reliance Infrastructure, Design Forum, Arcop India, Atkins, Ansals API, Sateliers, Omaxe, Quark City, Sahara City Homes, Hettich India, Kaff Kitchen Solutions, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, Indian Army, Military Engineering Services, Architectural Design Houses [National and International] and many more. So, definitely you should go for LPU. Thanks.
