Dear Vijay, I am not aware of the CSE programme at IEM-Kolkata but can tell you the information about the CSE at LPU. I have also done my MBA from LPU and one of my friend's younger brothers is studying over there in B.Tech CSE. There are a few points I would like to share about why CSE is good for LPU. Good Placement: LPU has a good placement record for CSE students. Every year more than 500+ companies including national and multinational companies visit LPU for placement. A few of them are Microsoft, Amazon, Adobe, etc. In which they are placed. The maximum package availed for CSE is 42 lacs. Per annum by Microsoft. LPU has a very good placement and achieved awards for employability also. The main thing for placement that I liked there is that LPU provides placement classes to the students from the first year, which helps students prepare for placement until their final year of the programme. Scholarships: LPU provides scholarships to bright students every year worth crore rupees to all the students based on their academics, extracurricular activities, and other factors. Faculty: All faculty members are well qualified from IITs, NITs, Iims, and top-ranked universities all over the world. Tie-ups: B.Tech in CSE has tie-ups with industries that help students to explore themselves more in their field such as IBM, Intel, Xebia, Upgrade, etc. Specializations: CSE students get many specializations while studying CSE to enhance their knowledge according to their interests such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Cloud Computing, Cyber Security, Data Science, etc. Apart from this, many opportunities and scholarships are there in LPU while studying for bright students in academics and extracurricular activities. I hope this helps Thanks.

I am not quite aware of IEM-Kolkata in terms of B.Tech CSE programme but as per my experience, I must say that LPU provides 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. LPU is far way ahead with any other institute in many parameters such as rankings, exposure and placements. The university has been ranked high by outer agencies also with regard to placements of our students. Let me highlight what I have out figured: LPU adopts new technologies faster than anyone, they update their curriculum even after each semester by taking feedback from the students and also to meet the latest standards. LPU focuses on practical knowledge a lot, they have high tech labs and dedicated MAC lab for iOS development, each core subject has a different practical subject for it. Also in today generation knowledge and education is not only based on textbooks but also on the outside world, thinking out of the box and overall learning that's why LPU offers their students to participate in a lot of activities and events, the environment of LPU is very good and the academics tasks of LPU are so well planned that even in a course like Engineering you'll be able to manage time for exploring other things. Placements at LPU have always been good, LPU has set the bar very high due to its record-breaking placements. Computer Science students of LPU are working with hundreds of leading IT giants of the world, from Google to Microsoft to Apple. CSE/IT students secured salary package of up to Rs 27.5 LPA and placement opportunities from companies like Amazon, Adobe, Bosch Engineering, VMware, Cognizant Technology Solutions, Kony India, Schneider Electric India, HP India, LG Soft India, ITC Infotech, Capgemini, Tech Mahindra, KPIT, Morgan Stanley, Drishti Soft Solutions, etc. LPU students have been successful in cracking placement opportunities with core engineering profiles from industry giants like Honda, Voltas International, Deakin Air Conditioners, Ashok Leyland, TVS Motor Company Ltd. , Bosch, and Seimens Home Appliances, Elgi Equipments, Forbes Marshall Pvt. Ltd. Rockman Industries, Dharam Consulting, Godrej Consumer Products, etc. LPU students got Record-Breaking Placements In Computer Science With Offered Salary Package Up To Rs 42 LPA.

The demand for computer Science engineers has been strong both in India and overseas. The scope of employment is very good and opportunities exist both in IT and non-IT companies for students of computer Science engineering. Apart from the regular IT jobs, the non-IT Companies also employ these students. Though both the universities are good in terms of academic structure but being an alumni let me explain the things in detail. 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. LPU alumni, Utkarsh, placed at Google HQs in Silicon Valley Rs. 1Cr. + package. LPU becomes the favourite landing place for top recruiters like Cognizant Technology Solutions, Tech Mahindra, Capgemini, Amazon, Bosch Engineering, Tata Consultancy services, Meditab and many more. CSE in LPU is one of the best among private universities, not only it has a good academic structure and placements but also good overall development of skills required in real life work.

Hi, B.Tech CSE is not an ordinary programme! It requires a lot and lots of infrastructure and industry input to run successfully. Since the speed of changes in technology is breakneck, the universities need to be highly dynamic in nature to adjust their curriculum as per requirements almost continuously. There is an only a private university that can actually say that it has excelled in curriculum development, industry interface, diversity, professional enhancement, community development exposure, entrepreneurship exposure, technology training, infrastructure, and teaching pedagogy, and that is LPU. More than 700 faculty members are PhDs and Postdoctoral, and they provide exposure to students, which is unmatched. Coming to placements, the stellar record of LPU in placements is unmatched because of its efforts on curriculum development and delivery, industry interface, professional enhancement, and diversity of students; over 600 companies visit the campus for recruitment every year. None of the private universities can match LPU in any of the parameters, actually! Recent NIRF and ATAL rankings by the Government of India are proof enough! LPU is miles ahead of any other private university in almost all the comparison parameters. Thanks.

Though all the institutes are good in terms of academics but let me take LPU as an example being an alumni. The students of LPU has been placed in the top companies with high salary packages. The placements have been divided as dream packages and bulk recruiters. Apart from placements, many eminent companies approach LPU to hire students for internships. CSE department takes essential steps by making students equipped with all the essential knowledge needed to empower them with good placements. BYOD: Student brings their own laptops in classroom so that they are able to have a hands on practice session and can have expertise in programming and application developing. Industry Tie-ups: Our school have tie-ups with industries like Google, SAP, Oracle, Vmware, DELL EMC, and have mapped our courses like storage technologies, Big data, Java programming in line with these industries Rule Book Based Best IT Practices: Rule Books designed for incorporating best IT practices followed by Computer Professionals across the globe. Interactive Display Boards: Technology NEWS, Current industry needs/happenings, Technical Ethics, Newspaper Cuttingsand Discipline Hierarchy Best Projects Show-case Carnival: Discipline may organize a small carnival kind of thing where students can showcase their work Achieving Curriculum Accreditation: This accreditation means that TCS Campus Team will visit LPU as one of its preferred partners from Academia to recruit our talented students. Additionally, this accreditation will also be responsible for campus connect faculty development, joint project execution programs & many other mutually beneficial initiatives. LPU student will enjoy pre-orientation for joining with HCL. (In-communication) HP ESFor HP industry ready LPU students. (In-communication) WIPRO 10X Faculty Initiative Programme for developing synergies with Wipro group of companies. The student association Cypher is actively involved in propagating competitive programming wherein they conduct monthly algorithmic coding challenges and a mega code event titled Code Apocalypse which generally spans 3 days. The department also has a Microsoft Technical Club which is actively engaged in spreading tech awareness by hosting and conducting various tech talks and events by eminent speakers and fellow Microsoft Technical Club members I hope this helps you in making decision.
