    Greetings!!!

    I would choose LPU which tends to change instruction through scholastic meticulousness; pragmatic direction and result based education. A career after civil engineering in LPU is highly rewarding. There are jobs that involve supervision, construction, design and analyzes of private as well as public projects, such as dams, highways, canals, water sewages and bridges. . Excellence and responsibility are important factors associated with the job.For the inspiring creators of the society, B.Tech Civil Engineering program is offered, LPU helps them to learn to apply mathematics and scientific knowledge to real-life situati

    Chandigarh University and Lovely Professional University (LPU) are famous for engineering courses, but LPU is much better in civil engineering placements. LPU is well placed to cultivate tie-ups with numerous architectural firms as the leading company recruits like Larsen & Toubro, Tata Projects, and Shapoorji Pallonji among others have already hired fresh talents from LPU. There are strong values in the education process in the university as outcomes of students' acquirement of general working experience in the form of internships and projects. Apart from this, LPU also provide a great platform of infrastructure, advanced laboratories

    Both Lovely Professional University (LPU) and Chandigarh University (CU) offer strong B.Tech. in Civil Engineering programs, but based on my personal experience and insights, LPU stands out for several reasons.

    LPU provides a well-structured, industry-focused curriculum with practical exposure through modern labs, field visits, and live projects. The university ensures strong placement support, and the highest salary package for Civil Engineering has reached INR 15 LPA, with an average package of INR 6.87 LPA. Even internships offer great stipends, sometimes going up to INR 25,000 per month.

    What I genuinely appreciate about LPU is

    Hey! I was in the same boat a while ago, trying to decide between LPU and Chandigarh University for Civil Engineering. After doing a lot of research and talking to seniors, I ended up choosing CU—and honestly, I'm glad I did.

    What I liked most is the kind of exposure CU gives. They've tied up with UltraTech Cement and even set up a Centre of Excellence on campus. We actually get to work on real construction-related projects and learn things that go beyond textbooks. It feels more practical and industry-relevant.

    They also have this Geoinformatics & Remote Sensing Centre with PRSC, which is super helpful if you're into smart city

    Chandigarh University is doing well in placement.

    Students from Civil Engineering have received good offers. Big companies like l&T constructions, Afcons Infrastructure Ltd, Gammon Engineers and Contractors, everest Industries, Simplex Infrastructures, Saint Gobain, PvT Ltd, Ultratech Cements, and McDermott International hire CU students and offer very amazing salary.

    And you know what the university has a special department called department of career planning and development(DCPD). This department is fully dedicated to students success. It helps with interviews, aptitude tests, group discussion and industry exam.

    I'd personally lean towards Chandigarh University—especially when it comes to placements and industry exposure. What I found interesting is that CU has recently tied up with UltraTech Cement and even launched a full-fledged Centre of Excellence right on campus. That means students actually get to work on real-world projects, learn about sustainable construction, and connect with professionals from the industry.

    They've also started a Geoinformatics & Remote Sensing Centre in collaboration with PRSC, which is amazing if you're interested in smart technologies used in civil projects today.

    Placement-wise, CU's support is strong. They tra

Yes, CUCET is compulsory for Chandigarh University admissions. The university conducts the CUCET test for both scholarships and admissions to its courses. The test is conducted for courses in the fields of Engineering, Archcitecture, Law, Pharmacy, etc. Students with valid NEET/ NATA/ JEE scores can get admission into the BOptom, BPT, BArch courses without appearing for CUCET.

U
Upasana Harsha

Chandigarh University (CU) admissions are generally based on CUCET scores for most of the courses. Students need to appear for the test or submit scores of any other accepted exams as stated by the university. Hence, in some cases, you may get admission in CU without CUCET. The CUCET test is also a scholarship test and if you want to get the scholarship benefits offered by the university based on CUCET scores, then you will have to appear for the exam.
