Lovely Professional University (LPU) has once again demonstrated its ability to provide high-quality education and skill development in the field of fashion design. Over 95% of its students from the 2022-23 cohort have been employed in Fortune 500 organizations.
This demonstrates the university's dedication to providing its students with the skills and industry knowledge they need to thrive in the competitive field of fashion design.
Aditya Gidhuri, one of its pupils, has been hired as a 'design merchandiser' at Simba Fashions with a pay package of Rs 20.50 lakhs. This is a Rs 1500 crore company with marketing offices.

The program provides students with hands-on experience through various projects and internships, allowing them to apply their knowledge in real-world situations.”
Prof. Rajat Bhattacharya, Placement Advisor- Fashion, reveals that we are looking into further opportunities for our students to be placed in overseas markets such as the UAE, Malaysia, Indonesia, Hong Kong, and Bangladesh.
Merchandising analysts, fashion product developers, production planners, retail associates, fashion and sourcing merchandisers, visual merchandisers, marketing managers, and e-commerce managers are some of the positions available in the Indian and worldwide sectors.
The placements are the product of the university's strong business connections, which allow students to network and acquire industry exposure.

LPU's fashion design department has regularly been considered among the best in India, and this current round of placements demonstrates its continued success.
