Which is the best college for placements among UPES and LPU?

Unable to comment on the status of UPES but can throw light on the scenario of LPU as one of my neighbourer who studied from LPU appreciated the hard efforts of the organisation in placements. More than 700 companies visit LPU every year for campus-recruitment of students. The companies which have visited as of now are: Microsoft, Google, Oracle, Amazon, Cognizant Technology Solutions, TCS, Tech Mahindra, Amdocs, Capgemini, Verizon, SAP Labs, Hitachi Power, Videocon, L&T Technology Services, Ericsson, HCL Technologies, Asahi India, Ceasefire Industries, Sandhar Technologies, Indus tower, Decathlon Sports, Exide Industries, Emami, Eye-Q Vision, ITC Limited, Janalakshmai Financial Services, Kelloggs, MRF, Naukri, Moodys Analytics, WNS Global, Writer Corporation, Nivesh Group, OCWEN Financial, Practo and many more. Some big recruiters are MICROSOFT INDIA = 42 LPA GAMESKRAFT TECHNOLOGIES = 32 LPA INTERVIEW BIT = 31 LPA CODE NATION = 31 LPA MEDIA NET = 29.78 LPA AMAZON SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT INDIA LTD = 28 LPA OPTMYZR = 24 LPA ADOBE SYSTEMS INDIA = 22.3 LPA GOLDMAN SACHS INDIA SECURITIES PVT LTD = 22 LPA DE SHAW INDIA PVT LTD = 18 LPA AMAZON SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT INDIA LTD =18 LPA XILINX = 17 LPA KHIMJI RAMDAS = 16.6 LPA ASKNBID =14 LPA TIVO CORPORATION =14 LPA POSTMAN =14 LPA I personally believe that output is the function of inputs means if input is good, output has to be, so is the case for the placements of LPU. My neighbourer told that LPU believes in delivering the quality, for same, it has hired faculty from the reputed institutes like IITs, NITs. The syllabus is vetted from the company officials of Cognozant, SAP, Microsoft etc. To provide updated curriculum. LPU has his own space shuttle programme, where students and faculty members are working on satellite programme with the joint help of ISRO. Apart from this, LPU offers the following: 1. Rankings 2. Updated Curriculum 3. Industry Exposure 4. Good placements 5. Community Projects 6. Centre for Excellence 7. Internal and external competitions 8. Trainings In order to get the above learning and exposure, I will advise you to book the seat before 31-8-2020 to fetch maximum scholarship. Hope this helps.

Initiatives taken by any University in terms of Placement of their students must be considered as prime parameter for selecting BEST University. Being alumni of LPU, I must say that, LPU is always pro-active for providing the best placement opportunity to its student. Lovely Professional University is always concerned about all round development of the students. Because of LPUs approach towards equal priority focus to all the students of all the courses for their future career prospect in terms of Placement, LPU bagged the highest placement record almost 100% in all the courses. In terms of placement in 2020, it was really tough for all to proceed further. Its tough for a University who wants to promote its student to get excellent placement. Its tough for the companies also to take decision on the acquisition of excellent young talents. Thanks to the availability of advanced technologies, upgraded stuffs in LPU &amp; since the students were well prepared by LPU to overcome any of the situations to achieve their final goal, Lovely Professional University managed to achieve excellent placement record as always by securing more than 7000 overall job offers, internships, training for its students. Every year more than 550 companies used to visit LPU for placement purpose. As per my analysis, LPU is conferred with High Ranking by various outer agencies like following, 1) National Employability Award 2020 by Aspiring Minds for the 7th time in a row. 2) Outlook has ranked LPU 5th among top 50 private Universities in India in terms of Placement. 3) Business today ranked among top 100 Private State Universities in India in Placement Performance category. These are very few rankings mentioned above. LPU is very much renowned for its mass placement in a single campus placement drive in Day 1. Just for example - Record placements with over 610 hired on a single day by cognizant. Tech Mahindra hired 250 students in one go, which is the highest for any campus drive conducted by tech Mahindra. Every year corporate giants like Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, Amazon, Dell, Dainkin, HCL, Bosch, Samsung are visiting campus for recruitment regularly. Excellent cutting edge Infrastructure, innovative pedagogy, high quality of students - these are some of the factors which attracts corporate giants to be associated with LPU. It will remain very easier for them to recruit qualified manpower as per their requirement from a single window without searching here &amp; there.
