According to the recent NIRF ranking 2021 LPU is ranked 62nd among all Govt and Private universities in India.

Strong academia-industry connection:-With a plenty of study opportunities, LPU provide students with global excellence and industry immersion. This university has collaborated with the top-notch brands such as Google, Cisco, Oracle, SAP, Microsoft and many more to have its center of excellence, students from south get numerous chances to work directly with the companies on live projects to get a practical exposure. This helps the students to get an insight about the recent trends of the industries. There are hardly any university or college in south having such a exposure and deep collaboration.

Unbeatable Placement Records is Now a Habit:-LPU has one of the best placement records in the whole of India and that is why students want to join LPU to get placed. Right from Google to Microsoft, LPU alumni are working with the top brands at the package of 1 crore and above. Annually, more than 450 brands come to LPU to recruit the students, where 90% of them are MNCs. Moreover, 800+ companies that recruit from IITs and NITs also recruit from LPU. Over the last three years, Cognizant alone has recruited 1900+ students from LPU campus and has been titled with the “Most Employable Students” consecutively twice in a row by the India's top talent company “Aspiring Minds”. Barring few names in south, there are hardly any college which can boast of such tall records.

Well, Chitkara University is a good university. Being a faculty of LPU I would like to tell you a bit about LPU.

• The campus of over 1200 acres - That’s really not an interest to a student. What’ll she/he be doing of such a vast area. You’ll only be having a particular block for your academics.

• Eight hostels for boys and Six for girls - You’re gonna need a place to stay so hopefully there’s more than enough space to accommodate you. That’s a plus point.

• Security measures for girls - If you’re a girl and decide to reside in a hostel. Then you’ll have to mark your attendance daily in the hostel to the floor warden and be in the hostel within the entry timings. 6:00-6:30 is winter's timing and in summers up to 07:30 probably. So if you don’t enter into hostel till that time. You are gonna have to face the warden for an explanation and maybe a call to your parents. That’s a bit harsh. While girls may not like this but I’m sure their parents would surely do. But if you wanna live freely. There are plenty of PGs near the University. Now decide what’s best for you. But you’ll be super safe inside the hostels than in PG’s that’s for sure. You can go to the library from 08:00 PM to 12:00 AM. But will be accompanied by a guard from your hostel to the library.

• More than 200 courses are offered to range from Diploma to PG - You are probably going to find the best course for you among these. That’s for sure. Another plus point.

• Placement - Yes. Students do get placed from the university and a lot of drives are conducted from various companies. No doubt most of the drives are CSE/IT-based. Companies with decent packages come in. You’ll have to compete with everyone to grab the opportunity but it’ll be worth it.

• Tons of events - May it be Cultural, Sports, or Academic. There are numerous events held on the University campus itself. If you like to dance/sing/act then you’ll have numerous cultural events, You get a handful of opportunities if you are a sports guy. Let it be football, cricket, basketball anything. You’ll get many-many tournaments in every case. If you’re a computer geek, you like coding and all that technological stuff. You are gonna have a great ride.

Chitakara is certainly a good university. I would like to mention the highlights that LPU is known for:

International Exposure:

Not only in India, LPU is renowned internationally. LPU has a dedicated Division of International affairs. LPU has ties with Multiple foreign Universities all over the world. Students can take the opportunity to opt for Credit Transfer Program, Semester Exchange Program, Summer / Winter School Program. With this provision, students will get the opportunity of being educated with the advanced technologies of the world renowned Universities. With the huge diversity in campus, students also get the provision of cultural exchange.

Attendance : LPU is also very strict on the attendance of the students. 75% attendance is mandatory for the students at any cost. This is nothing but to make the students systematic & punctual in life.

Student’s Club: With the aim of all-round development of students, so that students would be getting emerged strongly in each & every domain of life, there are nearly 60 student organizations or clubs created by Lovely Professional University. With this initiative students will never feel alone on campus.

Hostel: I have also spent 5 Years in LPU Hostel. There I always feel it’s happening all the time !! 0% Ragging, 0% tolerance to any illegal substances like alcohol, drugs etc. Strict action used to be taken against the defaulters in case of non-adherence of such rules. Though there are many restrictions you can observe for the hostellers but believe me at the end of day you will find it necessary for all your security & safety. These restrictions would definitely make you learn how to lead your life in a controlled environment.

Faculties: LPU Professors are always beside the students for their well-being & enhancing their educational standard. Professors of LPU are very friendly & helpful in nature with an intimate, interactive, personalized approach to learning. Students are also allocated with Academic & Industry mentors from Day 1 for guidance till the last academic semester.

Infrastructure: 1. LPU is a 600+ Acre campus with all advanced facilities & infrastructures (Hospital, Shopping Mall, Gym, Indoor Stadium, Post Office, Bank, Food Courts with International cuisines, Hostel Facility etc.) 2. There are huge well maintained open grounds for outdoor games. Lovely Professional University does have an Olympic Standard swimming pool within the campus inside the SHANTI DEVI MITTAL INDOOR STADIUM. Diving pool & warming up pool are also adjacent to Swimming Pool. LPU is also having the best trainers to train students rightly, and with full safety & security. 3. Students can practice a variety of sports like Badminton, Basketball, Shooting, Boxing, or avail the GYM facility.

Placement: Let me quote the placement scenario of last session as I got to know from my alumni page of LPU, In terms of placement in 2020, it was really tough for all to proceed further. It’s tough for a University who wants to promote its students to get excellent placement. It’s tough for the companies also to take decisions on the acquisition of excellent young talents. Thanks to the availability of advanced technologies, upgraded stuffs in LPU & since the students were well prepared by LPU to overcome any of the situations to achieve their final goal, Lovely Professional University managed to achieve excellent placement record as always by securing more than 7000 job offers, internships, training for its students
