Programming involves a lot of innovations and students who love programming and designing or have a creative mind with a good understanding of coding can get into CSE and fit in very easily. Though both the universities helps in shaping the dreams but let me take LPU as an example to explain. Computer Science and Engineering programme is a popular branch among students and offers decent job opportunities after graduation. Students who are interested in programming, software development, computer Science and have good analytical and reasoning skills may pursue this course. With the high demand of computer Science and technology in the industry, B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering courses have gained potential which land students in various positions- Systems Analyst, Web Developer, Finance Programmer, Software Engineer, Product Manager, Game Developer, and many more. The University has tie ups with variuos industries like Google, Intel, DellEMC, BOSCH, CISCO, VMware IT academy, PEGA, Automation Everywhere, CompTIA in order to keep the students in pace with the changing technological advances. Tie ups with industry also enables the content delivery by Industry Experts, Projects in Collaboration with Industry and Internships to provide practical hands on experience. Industry certifications, MOOCs, Hackathons / Co-curricular Competitive events, Workshops, Guest lectures, Educational Trips, Live projects, Incubation projects, Community projects, projects with NGOs etc. Are an integral part of curriculum. LPU has the best placement for B.Tech CSE. Tanya Arora, a final year B.Tech Computer Science Engineering student of Lovely Professional University, has bagged a whopping Rs 42 Lac job offer from Microsoft.

Hi Neeraj, Comparison helps when you are confused between the two options. Honestly, I was confused too before coming here in LPU. For solving this confusion, I looked for the best key points that define the institute as the best education body. I have brief knowledge about LPU, so I can help you with that. 1. Infrastructure: The University is spread over 600 acres which provides each and every facility to their students inside the campus. Well, considering education, well-equipped labs are designed with the experienced faculty and the lab assistants that make you excel in the study. The faculty members are the student-friendly that you won't regret study in the university. But let me buzz you that we have more than 13,000 CCTV installed in the campus so be careful on your moves. 2. Placements: LPU has excelled in the placement records as students are trained with the professional enhancement programme classes, where they teach and educate you about the interview skills and etiquettes. Moreover, the university has been ranked high by outer agencies also with regard to placements of our students. 3. Faculty: Every semester, the syllabus is updated. The faculty members are available all the time of the week so that the student can approach any time of the week. We have lots of experienced faculty members specialised in the certain fields that can help you boost the knowledge, help build up your projects, guide you in your pace of life, any personal or educational issues, etc. 4. Diversity: The University with the most diverse student population. Students from all across the world live in the hostel, which comes the closest to being 'a home away from home'. The mixture of races and religions helps to build a decent environment. Its very exciting because you'll get a chance to interact with people from different nationalities, cultures and different backgrounds. Being a part of this university is always what I had hoped for from the time my neighbour shared with me his college life experience at LPU. 5. Campus Life: At the end of a tiring day or week, everyone expects entertainment and refreshing ways to uplift their daily boring schedule. But here in LPU, they conduct so many big events where they call popular celebrities and help their students to feel more alive and energetic, which make the life in LPU more of fun. I Hope you got the idea and I solved your confusion! Good Luck. Make the Right choice!
