Low ROI but can consider it
By Himanshi
Mar 04, 2018 3:35:06
0.5

Overall: ROI is low because the fees for the 2 year course is 16 lacs bu if you don't get into top 20 colleges then IBS is a decent option to be adopted with a brand name and also placement is tough because of huge batch size but you need to put in 200% efforts from your side only to get what you want.

Placement: Placements has improved from last year .Average package ranges from around 7-7.5 lacs but again its tough to compete with 1100 students wih you.All kinds of companies come here but the major recruitment are from finance,marketing and operations.

Infrastructure: Campus is no doubt huge with 91 acres with facilities from swimming pool,Gym,playground for different sport activities to residential hostel,well equipped library.

Faculty: Some faculties are really good but some are just not worth it's just like a combo where you don't get everything you want but yes in 3rd semester you get to choose your faculty according to your subjects.

Hostel: Separate rooms for everyone.Its a residential campus so both boys and girls hostel are nearby to academics and also the mess or the cafeteria is nearby.

Placements is not that easy task to do but if you are career oriented and make small small goals to achieve big in life then you can easily get placed in not only one company but in 3-4 companies because in LPU tons of companies come every year for placements. University conduct PEP classes, mock interview classes, webinars, workshops, guest lecture from expert students kept on participating in these activities by which their skill will be enhancing and their personality comes across better. The key points for students: • Attend all the lectures, maintain the attendance always and CGPA • Attend all the personal enhancement classes by which you work on your personality and soft skill. • Just believe in yourself and don’t realia on short cuts there is no short cut in life, do hard work keep on do that after you become pro in that then do smart work it will best for you own career. So dear, LPU will give you all which you need in order to find a great job, but it is YOU who has to grab the opportunity.
