Which university among Chandigarh University, LPU and Chitkara should I prefer for a Bachelors in agriculture?

Question

Dharamveer Dheer · Answer

There is no comparison between LPU and the other two in this regard as it is miles and miles ahead. The curriculum of LPU includes the language training and soft skills right from the day one for all students via School of English and Centre for professional enhancement. This gives an edge to students who study in this ecosystem, while Other Universities also have placement trainings etc. , these are limited to the placement year or semester while LPU starts it from the day 1. Not to forget the fact that LPU invests a lot in its faculty in form of large number of FDPs, foreign university visits and collaborations etc. So that students learn the latest techniques. The simple rigor and pedagogy of LPU curriculum creates the intellectual capabilities in budding teachers. Moreover the large number of education majors rely on LPU for capacity building and talent supply. Agriculture programme is no different. No wonder LPU takes the cake. Hope this helps. DVD.

It lays thrust on carrying out research in agricultural and allied fields.

School of Agriculture offers programs with up to date curriculum designed to suits the aspirations of agricultural industries as well as major research and development sectors.

Special emphasis is given to students for hand on training experience by assigning live projects (Agricultural work) in university agricultural research farms and experiential learning on different agricultural units. The faculty is well qualified and most of them are Ph. This and provide full support to the students. The best thing is the University does not compromise with the academics as all the lectures are held and if a faculty wants a leave either the makeup lectures are planned or adjustments are provided for that particular slot. In this stream as most of the work is fieldwork, there every student is allocated a separate piece of land to perform their tasks in the supervision of the staff. University provides additional placement oriented classes and students also studied subjects like analytical skills, soft skills, etc. Etera as part of the curriculum to prepare the students for all types of competitive exams.
