LPU is one of the best choices for agriculture programme. Lovely Professional University is first private university accredited by Indian Council of Agricultural Research. No other private university has this accreditation. LPU is one of the great place for education where the management actually believe on actions rather than words. Whatever they promised they delivered to us along with in campus placement at good package.

Partha, LPU has carved a niche for itself in the field of education. It offers its students what is best in the field. For the students of agriculture, university has set aside a big field where the students go for the practical learning other than the labs. Whatever the students grow/ produce there, university has set up a kiosk for it to be sold there. Students are not only getting a chance to learn but also to earn.
