Which is good for Chemical Engineering, UPES or LPU?

Question

Vibha Gupta · Answer

Chemical engineers translate processes developed in the lab into practical applications for the commercial production of products and then work to maintain and improve those processes. They rely on the main foundations of engineering: Maths, physics, and chemistry (though biology is playing an increasing role). The main role of chemical engineering is to design and troubleshoot processes for the production of chemicals, fuels, foods, pharmaceuticals and biologicals, just to name a few. They are most often employed by large-scale manufacturing plants to maximize productivity and product quality while minimizing cost. In my opinion Lovely Professional University is good in all the aspects but I am not sure about UPES so here I am detailing about LPU. LPU provides a great academic exposure to its students. It provides a chance to the students to attend guest lectures or workshops, so that they get to learn as much as they can. The students also work on live projects, so that they are able to apply their knowledge to practical settings. LPU is having well established laboratories, curriculum as per need of industry. It is one of the few that has embraced international practices when it comes to designing a curriculum. Instead of using old school books and lectures, LPU has experimented with books, interactive problem-solving interactions and working through real-world applications. LPU provides ample opportunities to each and every eligible student to secure good placement with the help of a dedicated Division of Career Services. The university has been ranked high by various outer agencies with regard to placements. LPU is conferred with National Employ-ability Award 2020 by Aspiring Minds for the 7th time in a row for having Most Employable Students and being one among the top colleges and universities in India with one of the highest Employ-ability rates.

Well dear, I would be able to give you a deep insight about Chemical Engineering at LPU as I have been training the batches for placements. LPU Chemical Engineering and Physical Sciences Discipline is among the best Chemical Engineering colleges in Punjab and India. Technical Skills are imparted into the students through a carefully designed course curriculum that creates a strong foundation of basic concepts. Regular teaching involves learning by practice making students industry ready professionals much before they graduate. University also focuses on all-round personality development of students through participation in international fests and competitions. Other than the subjective knowledge the dept. Of Chemical Engineering trains their students on technical clarity by posting them on various live projects and paper presentations. Their curriculum trains them on translating processes developed in the lab into practical applications for the commercial production of products and then work to maintain and improve those processes. They rely on the main foundations of engineering: math, Physics and Chemistry (though Biology is playing an increasing role). The main role of chemical engineers is to design and troubleshoot processes for the production of chemicals, fuels, foods, pharmaceuticals, and biological, just to name a few. They are most often employed by large scale manufacturing plants to maximize productivity and product quality while minimizing costs. LPU student Rajesh Haldhar, a Ph.D. Scholar in the Department of Chemistry received a scholarship for pursuing his Post-doctorate studies from School of Engineering at Shantou University, China for the academic year 2019-2020. Eminent experts from the industry/academia are invited to enrich the knowledge of students for solving industrial and societal problems. In one such visit, Dr. Manash Sarmah (Scientist, Jubilant Chemsys) interacts with the students. Students were placed in reputed companies like Panacea Biotec, Jubilant Chemsys, Siegwerk, Aurigene Discovery Technologies Ltd. , Tech Mahindra, Aakash, Torrent Pharmaceuticals Ltd. , Amazon, Concentrix, British Telecom etc. B.Tech Chemical Engineering programme provides a strong foundation of the different facets of the Chemical Engineering discipline, to develop an analytical insight among the students, that will equip them towards taking up leading roles in academia, industry and entrepreneurship.

Lipika Dhingra · Answer

Being an alumni of LPU I would like to share some insights about LPU. Chemical engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with the engineering and development of chemicals/processes to identify and/or solve technical glitches. This branch of engineering is a diverse field, covering broader fields such as biotechnology, nanotechnology, pharmaceuticals, mineral processing, petroleum refining plants, etc. Chemical Engineering is indeed a very broad field and the branch of study has its applications in diverse sectors, such as textile, plastics, food, petroleum, pharmaceuticals, and more. Currently, the Indian industrial sector is on its way of expansion, creating more and more opportunities for chemical engineering students in areas of production, designing, research, and development. The recent trend shows that the industry is expected to evolve and grow phenomenally in the years to come. As a result, there will be a surge in demand for chemical engineers in emerging industrial sectors in years ahead. Being an alumni I had couple of friends in the same field : In addition to this, LPU has many rankings to its credit: 1. Ranked among Top 10 Engineering Institutes in India by India Today. 2. Ranked as 5th In Top 20 Engineering Colleges in India with Excellent Industry Exposure by Higher Education in 2016. 3. Top 50 Private Universities by India Today 4. Ranked as Best Private University by ASSOCHAM recently.
