LPU is good but expensive as compared to opportunity or knowledge.
Placements: LPU placement services are good, as there are many big companies that come and give placement opportunities, such as Capgemini, TCS, Cognizant, etc. Talking about the highest package, it is above 50 LPA. 85% of students get their offer letter before the last semester.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of LPU is phenomenal, there is everything that a student needs for their education, starting from a great library to good quality of practical labs in each field. They have great professors who give you guidance whenever you need. LPU also has a great campus where you can get many opportunities to learn and grow.
Faculty: Teachers have good knowledge of their field. They provide guidance in their respective field, but sometimes when they are not in the mood, they don't give any attention. Some teachers are not even good in their respective field, have an ego, and on. The curriculum is relevant, like they teach you everything to make you industry-ready, but you have to work on your own. Semester exams are sometimes very tough, and sometimes medium, but never easy.
Other: Other information, like they have a great sports coach for different fields, like every field. If you like sports, they provide a cultural event. They organised various tech events like gaming, hackathons, coding competitions, and many more.

Average college with good marketing.
Placements: In my course, the average package is around 3 LPA. Some of the Top Recruiting companies are HighRadius with a package of 6-8 LPA. This year, around 50% students got placed. Whereas in the previous year, around 80-90 % students got placed. Maybe due to AI and market changes. The highest package was around 10 LPA in Increff, and the lowest is around 2.5 LPA in root analysis. Some of the Top Roles offered in my course (B.Tech Biotechnology) are Business Analyst and Data Analyst. Some students get selected for sales roles.
Infrastructure: Our facilities are average. Wi-Fi is available for Computer lab work and works fine. Labs are okay with average equipment and facilities, don't expect big equipment and materials for higher-level research. Classrooms are also okay with not-so-good benches and other facilities. There is a high scope of improvement. The library is great with great facilities and a number of books. Hostels are okay as well. Food is also average, like what you can expect from a mess.
Faculty: Teaching quality is okay, not very good. Some teachers are knowledgeable and some are not. But no teacher is great at teaching students, except 1 or 2 if you are lucky to get one. The course curriculum is relevant, at least better than that of other private universities. Semester exams are difficult and not very easy to pass. The passing percentage is 40% overall. Most of the work has to be done by students if they want to get a good CGPA or gain knowledge.
Other: Events on the campus happen often, but are not worth the time, and most of us don't get time to attend or enjoy the events. The campus crowd is very much. Students get good scholarships, which is why many students join this university. There are some extracurricular activities like dance, music, etc, that the university provides, but students have to join and make time for that besides their studies.

For agriculture, it is good.
Placements: Students become eligible for placements from the 7th semester. For agriculture course, Tata Rallis, ITC, Nath biogenesis, Syngenta, Wipro, etc., were recruiting companies. Some of them were hired for internships, some for jobs, and some companies offered jobs after internships to some students. I wanted to pursue a masters's in agriculture entomology but currently doing a job. It also offered internships at Syngenta. I cannot exactly recall the stipend but it was less than Rs 15,000 per month. Students had analyzed the effect of weedicides on weeds. ITC hired students for content making and procurement.
Infrastructure: Usually, there were all types of subject-related books available at library. There were 2 libraries in each department, and one central library for all campus students. In classroom, there was a projector, whiteboards, and in few classes, there were window and AC. Wi-Fi was all over the campus. In hostel, I share a room with three other students. Room was good and large. We had fans and study tables for everyone. Air-coolers were also available in the room, and hot water facility was also available.
Faculty: Faculty members were really nice at the university. They were very helpful and very informative. They provided all the help that was needed, providing materials, recommending books, and solving your problems anytime. Exams occur per semester, with one mid-term every semester. Mid-terms were MCQ-based while finals were both MCQ and long-answer type. B.Sc. agriculture contained 8 semesters with approximately 12 subjects per semester, while the last two semesters were all about practical and project works.

Placements: Placement is good for some courses but not for most of them. Mainly for CSE and MBA, placements are good. For all those courses, placement is okay with good companies, but for Science courses, there are not many opportunities, almost nothing at all. Still, overall good as per other courses.
Infrastructure: It is well-equipped and good. The mess is also good. All the facilities are available. Wi-Fi is provided in the whole campus, library, labs, computers, good classrooms. Hostel is good with stores, canteen, and the mess is also average. Overall, it is good and had a lot of fun.
Faculty: All the teachers are very helpful, but there is always room for improvement, not that difficult. Some courses are not really necessary but still are included, and also the timetable for classes is very hectic. The curriculum could have been better.

Its value for money college.
Placements: My brother and I also graduated from Lovely Professional University, and we both got placements. Their placement rates were very high, and top companies came. Their average placement package was also good, it was around 5 to 6 LPA, and companies like Google, Microsoft give over 40+ Lacs to students.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure was good, and the safety of students was top notch and I prefer not to take mess because the quality of food was not my favourite, so you can eat whatever you want, as there were many food corners and canteens available. You can check your information on their own app.
Faculty: Teachers were very good and they have a lot of experience, and they guide students in study, and their main focus is on real world problems and not on theory and paperwork. Exam patterns were easy, and the level of examination was moderate, not too low, not too high, but they built your concept brick by brick.

Classrooms and the library are also good in Lovely Professional University, full Wi-Fi facilities are available, and also good teaching, and one more, sports is one of the favourite activities at LPU.
