Question

Riya Bansal · Accepted Answer

When it comes to choosing between CGC Landran and LPU for Computer Science Engineering (CSE), it really depends on what you're looking for in a college.

CGC Landran is often considered a strong option because of its placement record. Many students prioritize colleges that can offer good job opportunities right after graduation. LPU has a decent academic structure, but its placement rates sometimes lag behind CGC Landran. Recently, though, companies like Cognizant have started recruiting more students from LPU, which is a positive sign.

If you compare the median salaries and campus environment, CGC Landran generally has an edge in Punjab, except for top-tier institutions like Thapar and PEC. Here’s a quick comparison:

Particulars	CGC Landran	LPU
Average Salary	Rs. 4.32 lakhs	Rs. 5 lakhs
Highest Salary	Rs. 26.97 lakhs	Rs. 42 lakhs
Entrance Criteria	JEE Mains	LPUNEST
Fees	Rs. 3.09 lakhs	Rs. 6.72 lakhs

So, if placements and a good campus vibe are your priorities, CGC Landran might be a better fit compared to LPU.

Its a Question about your future!
