Question

Dharamveer Dheer · Answer

Good placements are backbone and barometer of success of any institution. Over the years I have observed that LPU is the one which has developed the largest network among the industry for industry interface, interactions, internships, projects and consultancies. Not only these, its network also helps it develop the curriculum as per the industry needs. That's the reason why: # More than 700 companies are visiting to LPU campus for recruitment purpose. # More than 900 placement drives are being conducted in a year. # Over 95% percent placements to all the eligible and placement aspiring candidates. Considering the placements as the responsibility of institution, LPU starts he professional enhancement classes right from first semester itself. This not only helps the students crack the interviews but also goes a long way in shaping their careers. So, LPU it is, a clear winner.

Puneet Singh · Answer

Dear Aspirant, Both Manipal University and Lovely Professional University are good universities. But I have no idea of the placements at Manipal University. Being alumni of LPU I will be sharing the details of placements at LPU with you. I would say that LPU is better in terms of placements. In fact, LPU created a new record in the whole of North India by placing its student Tanya Arora with Microsoft, who bagged a package of 42 LPA. Engineering- Rs. 42 LPA Management- Rs. 21 LPA (SOBHA Developers) Design- Rs. 36.5 LPA (SIXT India) Agriculture- Rs. 19.25 LPA Amazon recruited LPU students on a package of 28 LPA Internship Stipend- 80,000 per month. (which is really hard to get in other universities) The reason why LPU has better placement records than other universities is because of its unique career cell. It enables students in getting relevant work experience to complement their studies and develop appropriate skills and knowledge. Resume writing, aptitude development workshops among other activities are hosted for the overall development of students and prepare them to crack the interviews easily. Right from Google to Apple, students of LPU are working worldwide. I will enlist a few names of companies to brand that visit LPU for placements and alumni are working, also, where my friends work: Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Cognizant, Leadsquared, BOSCH, Concentrix, IBM, Accenture, Infosys, TCS, Trident Group, Infineon, KPMG, Colgate-Palmolive, Morgan Stanley, Hindustan Unilever Ltd, and the list still goes on. I hope this helps! Thanks!
