It is always hard to believe that the students of hard professional programs including pharmacy, mechanical engineering or so can devote their time so judiciously that they come out with brilliant colours in whatever task they undertake. I want to re-affirm them that when success comes, it wants us to be more firm to excel over our present achievements. So, start aiming the next target right from now."

We are thankful to our mentors at LPU who make us to practice throughout the year so that we may always be winners in the fields of our choice. No doubt, it is a tough job to give proper time for academics and cultural activities side by side, but at LPU we are always guided to live up to our passions and excel others."
