Meeting people at LPU

Last updated: July 2026

Meeting people at LPU, in Chandigarh, starts with the campus's own social rhythm, not a generic checklist.

Area:Chaheru, Phagwara, Punjab (rural campus)
Founded:2005
Size:very large (about 34,900 students)

LPU's One India One World festival has been inaugurated on campus by the Speaker of the Lok Sabha and Punjab's Chief Minister in different editions, a level of national political attendance that is unusual for a Punjab private-university fest.

What the campus is like socially

LPU runs a broad, multi-department social calendar typical of a large Indian university, with societies, fests, and department-level events as the main social anchors.

How to find your people here

At LPU, joining a department society or a campus-wide club in your first weeks is the fastest way to build a real circle.

Meeting people at LPU by interest

A lot of friendships here form around a shared interest rather than a class or a hostel wing. If you are into running, reading and book clubs, food and cafe hopping, and music and jamming, those pages cover where that scene actually happens in India and how to find people near you who are into the same thing.

Colleges nearby

LPU sits close to Plaksha University, Panjab University, PEC Chandigarh, Chandigarh University, and Chitkara University, all part of the same Chandigarh student scene. Cross-college friendships often start at inter-college fests, hackathons, or shared-interest communities rather than in class.
