Placement: Let me quote the placement scenario of the last session as I got to know from my alumni page of LPU. In terms of placement in 2020, it was tough for all to proceed further. It’s tough for a University that 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 staff 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 an excellent placement record as always by securing more than 7000 job offers, internships, training for its students
