Mechanical engineering is the branch of engineering which deals with the design, manufacturing, maintenance and testing of machines. It is also considered as one of the most diverse and versatile disciplines of engineering. Mechanical engineering also includes the application of mechanics, material Science, applied mathematics and Physics. With the rise of modern technology, mechanical engineering has witnessed newfound importance with more and more students opting to learn less explored domains of robotics, mechatronics, nanotechnology, etc. Few good colleges for mechanical engineering other than IITs are MIT Manipal, COEP Pune, SRM University Chennai, VIT Vellore, Lovely Professional University Punjab, KIIT, Dayanand Sagar College Bangalore. While I was surveying the course and curriculum I found LPU a very happening university. LPU is good for Mechanical Engineering. Good placements in core company as well as multinational companies.

The curriculum covers core subjects like thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, manufacturing processes, machine design, robotics, and CAD/CAM. LPU provides state-of-the-art labs, industry tie-ups with companies like Bosch, Ashok Leyland, and Siemens, and opportunities for hands-on learning through live projects and internships. The university also supports entrepreneurship and research, allowing students to work on innovative projects and gain international exposure through exchange programs. In terms of placements, companies like Tata Motors, Mahindra, L&T, and Maruti Suzuki recruit from LPU, with the average salary ranging between ?4-6 LPA. The tuition fee is around ?1,20,000 per semester, but scholarships based on LPUNEST, academic merit, or national-level entrance exams can significantly reduce the cost. Overall, LPU's Mechanical Engineering programme is well-suited for students looking for a blend of academic excellence, industry exposure, and career opportunities in both core and interdisciplinary fields.

Riya Sharma · Answer

We should not compare the two; both the universities are good at their place. But as a student of LPU I would like to say LPU is best because in India LPU is one of best private university. Its ranking, placement, education, infrastructure and diversity make this university one of a kind. Ranking: - LPU comes under top 100 amongst all private and Government University. This Dear year what shook me the most is the resent ranking by the world’s university ranking again amongst all government and private university. Placement: - In lovely professional university from 100 students 90-95 students get placement. Specifically in B.Tech, the highest salary package was 64lac per annum. In management it was 21lacs per annum. So, in my point of view its great packages as compare to any other university. Infrastructure: - There is green areas in the university at so many different departments in the campus, classroom with a/c, google lab, IMAC lab, moot court, fine art lab, agriculture farmland, space centre, play grounds, and both girls and boys hostel. Education: - professors are well educated most of them are Ph.D, m.phill or Masters in specific subject.
