Though both the universities are good in terms of academic structure but being an alumni of LPU let me explain the things in detail. The below stated factors make it one of the most refined campus:-
Courses: Not just engineering, the university is also known for programs like MBA, Business Management, Design, Hotel Management, Law, Pharmacy among others. Placement : LPU takes pride in its students' excellent placement record. Tanya Arora, a promising third-year B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering student at the university bagged a job with Microsoft in 2019, at a salary of Rs 42 lacs. Thousands of other LPU students are working with industry bigwigs like Google, Amazon, Capgemini and more. Cognizant, ranked 3rd among IT companies in the world, alone has hired 2226 students from LPU in just three years. Keeping up with its high standards, over 550 national and international companies visited the campus in 2019, including Hewlett Packard, Adobe, Xerox, Abbott, IBM, Cognizant, Microsoft any many more. Infrastructure :LPU also has specialised labs in collaboration with Google, SAP, Intel, CISCO etc. In the campus. Due to a strong industry interface, a large number of senior industry professionals regularly share their expertise with students further make them industry-ready. LPU has ultra-modern high-tech labs dedicated to every department, smart classrooms, country's the largest auditorium, Olympic ready sports complex, shopping mall, hospital and students run hotel. Faculty: There exist more than 3600 faculty & staff members imparting education at LPU. Many of them come from IITs, NITs and renowned International universities such as Harvard & Stanford. Experiential Learning: studying at LPU is not just limited to textbooks and classrooms. Students get to learn through live projects and experiments. Promoting experiential learning, students at LPUs Department of Mechanical Engineering have developed driverless cars. In the Computer Science Department, it is compulsory for students to create customized mobile apps while the fashion technology students organize fashion shows at national and international level. Diversity : With over 30000 students from 28 states, 9 union territories and 50+ countries, LPU is not less than a Mini World in the state of Punjab, India. I hope this information helps.

There is no match, Chandigarh University has always been better than the LPU. Chandigarh University is bestowed with prestigious NIRF ranking, the university has been ranked under top 50 universities of India (which includes all IITs and NITs too). Gone are the days when IITs were the only institutions in India that provided quality of education. Nowadays, there are many private universities like BITS Pilani, Chandigarh University, VIT that are at par with the IITs. Though Chandigarh University was established in the year 2012, but it the known as the fastest Asias the fastest growing University. CU has been accredited with NAAC A+ gra

Hi, Before finalizing the institute, compare:
1. Rankings
2. Years of establishment
3. Curriculum
4. Industry Exposure
5. Infrastructure required for learning
6. Placements
7. Efforts for your placement
8. Community Projects
9. Centre for Excellence
10. Internal and external competitions
11. Training
I recall one of my friends inquired from LPU. He was told that every year 750 companies visit to recruit students which shows the right choice to pursue your degree. Rest you can also inquire about other institutes but I doubt the above facilities are floated. So, LPU is the best university. Thanks.

I would choose LPU which tends to change instruction through scholastic meticulousness; pragmatic direction and result based education. The LPU infrastructure is quite vast and enough to support all types of practical like the ones needed for agriculture, physical education etc. The lush lawns are very inviting. LPU has all the necessary accreditation. The faculty is not only experienced but is updates with the latest leanings by industry experts in the faculty development programs held at regular intervals. The faculty is academically very helpful too. Industry immersion can be seen as there are seminars and workshops held by the industry experts and the alumni, so that the students can get a fair idea of the market trends
The labs are well-equipped with the latest technology. The main library is a nine story building and is well-equipped, besides this there are libraries in each block. Placement preparation starts right from the beginning and the placement and career department is one of the largest and best in India. The School of Professional Enhancement gives the necessary analytical, logical skills and soft skills to polish the student to the core to make him placement ready. Even mock placement drives are held. The MNCs have recruited many students to top notch positions. A student of Agriculture got a whooping offer of 1cr from a US firm, B.Tech CSE student got 42LPA from Microsoft. About 700 companies visit LPU for recruitment in the LPU campus. It has won many accolades and is even awarded the National Employabilty 2020 award for Best Placements. More than 700 companies visit every year for such activities and campus-recruitment of students from LPU; and this year for batch graduating in 2020, already more than 500 placement/internship drives have been conducted till January 2020 with leading industry giants. More than 90% are MNCs and generating more than 3000 offers just in the first half of the academic session. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. So the campus buzzes with regular extra curricular activities, celebs keep visiting the campus. The swimming pool of international standards, snooker pool, gym, mall, kiosks, fun zone etc. Rejuvenate the life of students. What more can a candidate expect from a college
These and many more such reasons would entice me for selecting LPU. Browse the websites of colleges to check the academic excellence offered. Choose wisely
Seats are filling up fast due to online admissions so be fast. DVD.

What is the passing marks for LPU end term exam for Physical Education?

Sampreet Kaur

Hey, so for LPU's end-term exam in Physical Education, you need at least 30% marks in the end-term itself, plus an overall 40% combining continuous assessment and end-term. That's the standard across their PE programs, and they've got a cool holistic review if you hit the aggregate but miss the end-term bit—super fair way to keep things student-friendly. Attendance stays key at 75% min, which makes sense for staying active in sports stuff. LPU really nails this balance, helping folks like us push through without harsh cutoffs, way better for building real fitness skills. No wonder it's a top pick—keeps motivation high and stress lo

What is the fee for LPU 1 year fee for BPEd course?

Sampreet Kaur

Hey guys, so I checked the official LPU site for the BPEd course fee, and for the first year, it's around INR1 Lacs to INR1.09 lakhs, covering tuition at INR50,000 per semester plus exam fees of about INR4,500-INR5,000 each. That's super reasonable for a top-notch programme with awesome sports facilities and scholarships up to 60% if you score well in LPUNEST—like INR96,000 off per semester for high performers. LPU really makes it accessible without compromising quality, way better value than many places I've seen. Total for two years is INR2-2.18 lakhs, but first-year payment is straightforward via UPI or whatever. If you're into ph
