Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The course curriculum is well structured and thought out. Obviously the first year of engineering has all the domains of engineering so we have to get past the first year with everything we have. The 2nd year onwards we will start studying the subjects focused on our course. They teach us in a way that gets us ready for practical skills as well. In a semester, we have mid term exams, end term exams as well as 3 continuous assessment tests to test our knowledge and understanding ability for the subject.

Fees and Financial Aid

The tuition fees for my course per year is Rs 2,80,000 plus examination fee of Rs 4,500 per sem. Students who wish to study here for engineering need to write LPUNEST entrance exam. According to the marks scored in the exam, you will be awarded scholarship. There is no category wise fees at LPU. Every student pays the same amount of fees. Other engineering courses apart from CSE has a fee of Rs 2,40,000 per year and the tuition fees are paid per sem. So for example if your tuition fees are 2,40,000 per year, then you'd have to pay Rs 1,20,000 in the first semester and the rest during the second semester. Although if you do avail hostel and mess facilities, you have to pay the full amount for those facilities for whole year at the start aling with fees of first semester. The tuition fees are comparatively affordable if compared with other private colleges.

Campus Life

5

The Lovely Professional University campus lies across 700 acres of land. There are basically every course offered here apart from medicine and many clubs and events. There'll be an event basically every day here on the campus organised by various departments. The central library at LPU is nothing short of amazing. There are thousands of books available for the students who wish to avail them. Every sport you can think of, it is mostly played here at LPU. This year, there were 24 students of LPU representing India at the Olympics in Paris so that just answers the importance of sports at LPU. There are also many extracurricular activities such as NCC, NSS and many more available here for students who wish to participate in them.

Admission

I am from Kerala, India. So originally I was planning on studying computer science in a college in Kerala. But I coincidentally came across LPU while going through the top ranked engineering colleges in India on the NIRF ranking. LPU was highly ranked in many categories on NIRF as well as many other ranking lists such as Times Higher Education, QS World Rankings and many more. Therfore, I looked into it on the LPU website and their placements were excellent too. I then applied for the LPUNEST entrance exam. Scored good and was awarded scholarship and I thought it was a great opportunity for me.

Faculty

4.5

The faculty members here at Lovely Professional University are definitely deserved to teach here. 99% of the faculty here are PhD graduates who teach very efficiently and clears any doubts we have on the spot.

Placement Experience:

Companies start coming summer internships in the 5th and 6th semester though ,CG cuts are imposed so very less students are elgible to sit for these companies, The real placement season is 7th and 8th semester and many companies visit campus for placements. around 60 percent students got placed in the recent placement drive. The major recruiters are: Oracle, CISCO, JPMC,Deloite,IBM,ZS etc.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I’d rate the curriculum like 7/10 in terms of relevance and comprehensiveness — it covers all the major CSE subjects like DSA, OS, DBMS, CN, AI, ML, Cloud, Cybersecurity basics, etc., and honestly that was one of the reasons I chose this course because at least the core subjects are solid even if PTU keeps some old-school stuff in the syllabus. The curriculum does prepare you for real-world stuff, but only to a point — like, if you focus on coding labs and projects you’ll be fine for internships, but if you depend only on classroom theory then it won’t help much because industry wants hands-on skills. For higher studies also it’s okay because theory depth in subjects like OS and DBMS is decent enough. But yeah, improvements are definitely needed — some subjects feel outdated, teachers should use more practical examples, and we need more real projects instead of copy-paste lab manuals; also some faculty teach directly from slides which gets boring fast. Exams come twice per semester (sessionals) plus the final end-sem around December/May; they’re mostly easy if you write long answers, but tricky if you rely only on understanding because PTU likes theory-heavy questions. Overall, the system works, but it could be way more practical and industry-focused.

Placement Experience:

Placements are not that good. Although companies come, there is a lack of mass recruiters or reputed organizations. One has to grind hard here for placements. If you're a CS student, you will have to face immense competition here. As for core branches, placements are severely dry. Students gets eligible in 4th year onwards for placements. Some of recruiters here are Trident, TCS, Reliance, Sonalika and other few. Every company offers around 10-15 selected students for a job. Highest package ever was 15LPA and average is 3.2LPA. Percentage placed is only around 15% here. My plans after the degree are to apply for govt exams.
