Why is this college not there in MHRD and NIRF ranking, though LPU has best campus, facilities, faculties and placements?

Question

udit Katiyar · Answer

This is a common misunderstanding LPU is actually included in National Institutional Ranking Framework rankings but not always in the top positions or every category, which is why some people feel it is missing. NIRF rankings are based on multiple factors like research output, faculty publications, citations, teaching quality, and perception not just campus facilities or placements. While LPU is strong in infrastructure, industry exposure, and diversity, research metrics often carry more weight, where older institutions like IITs and NITs usually perform better. Also rankings change every year and differ across categories so visibility can vary. Overall LPU is part of the ranking system but its position depends on these broader evaluation parameters.

Dear Vishwajit, You must have got the wrong information or you have not checked the official website of NIRF ranking. Being alumni of LPU, I would be sharing the recent NIRF ranking 2021 with you. LPU has been ranked among the top institutions in India for many of its disciplines by NIRF ranking 2021. LPU is 12th in Architecture, 24th in Law and 23rd in Pharmacy, 37th in Business Management, 66th in Engineering, and 62nd in Universities across India. Furthermore, I will share the details of the CSE programme as well with you. 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 program. 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. 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, Upgrad, 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
