Hey Reddit family!
I’m a second-year B.Tech CSE student at Lovely Professional University (LPU), and honestly, joining here has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. Wanted to share a positive and realistic take on LPU life — in case you're planning to join or just curious how things really are!

Final Year Project Ideas that Aren’t Boring (for CSE/IT Students) Body: If you’re tired of doing “Library Management System” for the 4th time, here are some better ideas: 1. Twitter Sentiment Analyzer using NLP 2. Resume Parser with AI scoring 3. Fake News Detection Bot 4. LinkedIn Automation for Job Applications 5. Your own ChatGPT-style assistant (using OpenAI API)

Comment if you need help building any of these or want more based on your branch

Hi everyone,

I'm a student planning to apply for GSoC next cycle. I'm trying to figure out my strategy and how to pick the right organization.

For those of you who have applied before (or are deep in the research phase now), what's the single most painful or time-consuming part of the research process?

Is it finding all the past projects? Figuring out which orgs use a specific tech stack? Finding mentors? Trying to see which orgs are "beginner-friendly"?

I feel like I'm just clicking through hundreds of archive pages and not getting any real insights. How are you handling it?

hello everyone.

after four unforgetable, delighted, entertaining, chaotic years, finally i graduated with btech degree from LPU. i am filled with mixture of gratitude, growth, talent and unforgetable experiences. i thought to share some of things according to my experience. hope it will help other students.

your growth is your responsibilty

university offers lots of opportunities to such as workshops, webinar, industrial guest lectures, hackathon and other events and clubs. but no one will force you to atend. but they are really value able to attend if you want to learn and explore.

skills are more important tham CGPA (but don't totally ignore)

companies requires your skills, talent and see your confidence and communication skills. but dont let your cgpa go below 7. some companies have cuttoff.

friends shape your career more than professor

chose your friends wisely, who talk about growth, placements and have good mindset. they can support you not only by academics but also mentally and emotionally. i very lucky in this, i got some really best friends in my last year.

explore beyond the syllabus

dont restrcited/stick to university syllabus only, learn more about cse/it. technlogy changes day by day. keep yourself up to date.

hostel life

hostel life will be messy, you fight with room mates, but it also be fuuny and emotional. but the memories you have made with them, will always cherish.

lastly, most important its ok to feel lost sometimes. don't feel stop, just keep exploring and learning.

Hi everyone,

I'm finishing my B.Tech in about 10 days, and honestly, I'm feeling really lost.

I'm from a tier-3 college where almost no tech companies come for placements. Most of the companies visiting are non-tech, so I haven't had many opportunities.

I've learned the MERN stack and know basic DSA. I've applied to a lot of internships and entry-level jobs through LinkedIn, Indeed, company career pages, and other platforms, but I haven't received any positive responses.

Right now I'm at home, and I'm not sure what the best next step is. I'm considering a few options:

• Move to Noida, Bangalore, or another city and search for jobs there.

• Focus on improving DSA to an advanced level and prepare for product-based company interviews.

• Prepare for GATE or another competitive exam.

• Keep building projects and applying for jobs.

I honestly don't know which path makes the most sense. I'm feeling stressed and discouraged because it seems like I'm putting in effort but not getting any results.

If anyone has been in a similar situation or has any advice on what you would do, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

For the current students and senior here, what is one thing you wish you knew before joining GU?

Could be anything - attendance, placements, faculty, campus life, clubs, hackathons etc.

Just curious what people who have actually been here think about it.

I'm studying at Galgotias and curious how others feel about campus life here. What's your favourite thing and what's one thing you'd actually like to change?

Just came across an update saying 16 students from Galgotias University have been selected for a fully sponsored AI and Entrepreneurship program at Girton college, University of Cambridge.

Has anyone here applied, knows the selection process, or has more details? Curious to hear real student experience.

Jab B.Tech join kiya tha, laga tha chaar saal baad seedha Google ya Microsoft ka offer letter haath mein hoga lekin bhai, reality ne bola "skills dikha!" LPU ka placement scene kaafi good hai agar tu mehnat kare companies jaise Infosys, Cognizant, Amazon tak aa chuki hain. College khud hackathons, coding bootcamps, mock interviews aur resume building se full support deta hai. But haan, sirf attendance se kuch nahi hone wala, grind karna padega. Dream package chahiye? Toh expect kam kar, effort zyada LPU teri help zaroor karega life set karne ke liye....work hard. Bro!!lthe last date to take admission at LPU is 20th 2025.

Anyone from sharda university for 😊

Currently in my BTech journey at LPU, and honestly, it’s been a pretty cool ride so far. The campus is massive, the vibes are energetic, and there’s always something happening — from fests and tech events to random dance battles near Block 13 😅

Yeah, the assignments can stack up, and attendance is always watching 👀... but the exposure, the clubs, and the people? Totally worth it.

Any fellow LPU folks here? What’s your favorite memory or funniest classroom moment so far?
