5 months agoHi,
All these four are doing pretty well in there zones. As an Education Consultant, I would compare the universities on following:
Curriculum, Pedagogy, Technology, Industry interface, Professional etiquette, Diversity, Entrepreneurship, Placements : The programme is only means to the end ! And desired end of such course is a placement. You must check if the college/university has sold track record of placements or not. Believe me, I haven't seen anyone apart from LPU excelling in all the said parameters, it is not only the best but miles and miles ahead of all the other names taken here. -
All are good as per their capabilities. As per my experience in the last 16 years as an educator, I would rank them as follows:
#1 PEC
#2 LPU
#3 CGC
#4 CU
Since CGC and CU are sister concerns, it doesn't matter which one is better! PEC has a long heritage of more than 60 years and international recognition, LPU has made its name in the last 18 years on the back of its stellar performance in all sorts of parameters you can think of! Placements just for an example, LPU has unmatched placement record with over 600 companies being regular to campus for recruitment offering not only good remuneration but also great job roles.

Lovely Professional University and Chandighar University both are good because both offer very good placement opportunities And Chandighar Group colleges are also good but Universities are always get more preference in comparison of Group of colleges.
So It's better to choose between CU & LPU

hi,
Lovely Professional University (LPU) is famous for its diverse student community, modern campus, and strong placement record. It is known for industry-oriented programs, extensive tie-ups with global universities, and emphasis on practical learning, internships, and live projects. LPU frequently features in national rankings for engineering, management, law, pharmacy, and other disciplines. The university is also recognised for its large green campus, vibrant student life, cultural festivals, and sports facilities. Its focus on innovation, start-ups, and research, along with scholarships for deserving students, makes LPU a popular
Top recruiters that have been attracted to the institution include Google, Microsoft, Amazon, TCS, Accenture, Capgemini, Cognizant, Infosys, Bosch, JP Morgan, and several other Fortune 500 companies under IT, BFSI, Consulting, FMCG, and Manufacturing sectors. Placement cells organize campus drive events to connect students with the most national and international employers.
LPU's placement record is generally strong but varies by course and student performance. Top branches like CSE, IT, and some core engineering and management programs see better placements, with big companies like Microsoft, Google (via off-campus), Amazon, Cognizant, Accenture, and Infosys visiting over the years. A few students do get very high packages, but these are exceptions, not the norm. Many students get average packages in the range of 4–6 LPA, especially in mass-recruitment roles. Your skills, internships, projects, communication, and networking matter more than just the college name, even at LPU or any other university.
hi,
Law placements at LPU are decent and growing, but you should keep realistic expectations. Top and proactive students usually secure internships and jobs in law firms, corporate legal departments, litigation chambers, NGOs, and LPOs. The university regularly organizes moot courts, legal aid camps, internships, and interactions with advocates and judges, which help in networking. However, like most law colleges (except a few NLUs), campus placements are not guaranteed for everyone. A lot depends on your mooting, drafting skills, internships, research work, communication, and initiative. If you build a strong CV, LPU can provide platf
Seat allotment during the LPU NEST counselling effectively takes place based on your merit (exam) rank, as well as the preferences you fill to course/specialisations while you log in to the portal for admissions after your results are out. After you log in to the counselling portal after the results go out, you need to honestly fill your choices of course/specialization. LPU will then look for which rank you are in the merit list, check availabilities, and allocate seats accordingly based on your previously chosen course/specialization seats and rank. The seat allotment process of counseling purely works on merit, so the students who s
