Being alumni of Lovely Professional University, Punjab I must say LPU will fulfill all your University selection clauses in best way.

Not just this, LPU students even get opportunity to showcase their collection in an Annual Graduating Fashion Show. Even I got a chance to showcase my collection at such a prestigious platform. I was astonished when I came to know students also got an opportunity to showcase their Design Collection at New Delhi in the prestigious fashion show- Delhi Times Fashion Week 2019 along with eminent designers of India like Ritu Beri, Narendra Kumar, Ashima Leena etc. LPU has even signed MOUs with International universities like NABA & Domus Academy (Italy), IBSW (USA), Curtin University (Australia), Nottingham Trent University, Birmingham City University and University of Derby (UK). So not just national, but students also being exposed with international immersion programs and placements. I hope this will help you. And I suppose the registrations for Fashion Design prog.
