While Choosing which programme to join, and to which university you should go, is one of the most important decisions you will make. Before searching for any University, You should compare universities on various parameter like academics, Industrial exposure, placements, infrastructure, On-Campus Facilities & Amenities, Student Activities etc.
Both have good placement but in case of infrastructure and facility but LPU is better than any other University. Being an alumnus of LPU I would prefer LPU as it has helped me grow professionally and provides exposure to various opportunities in terms of internships, workshops, guest lectures, industrial visits, placements etc.
.There are ample of opportunities in this field both in Government and in Private sector. Getting a good job depends on various factors like from where you have done your Graduation, your skills, your knowledge about the field, the Industrial experience and exposure if you have any.

Competitive exams such as UPSC FCI, and other government jobs abound after B.Sc. In Agriculture. Public and private companies also offer jobs, many who come for campus placements too. Options go on to journalism in the agricultural sector, state government jobs, insurance sector jobs, research, and teaching.

Hello!
I am not so aware about Guru Nanak Dev University, I would suggest you to have a look over LPU for agriculture course.
LPU is well known for its B Sc (Hons) Agriculture course. LPU is the first private University to get ICAR accreditation. The faculty is well qualified and most of them are Ph. This and provide full support to the students. LPU is the university which caters to the all round development of its students and nurtures it with care to boost the career to a pinnacle of ultimate success which might be the envy of many.
LPU is the only private university which has been accredited by ICAR. It has set certain standards and for this FEAT it has received many accolades. The experienced faculty along with the high standards maintained for the grooming of students has made it a hub of academic excellence. The sprawling infra structure aids the practical knowledge needed for this field and well-equipped labs have been provided to propel the career of students to a zenith. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture also includes on farm RAWE (Rural Agriculture Work Experience) training and hands on experimental developing confidence in the graduating students of Agriculture. The students have been recruited in Syngenta, VLCC, Reliance Fresh, Dhanuka, etc. Due to ICAR accreditation large number of companies are visiting the campus.
The agriculture department has many feathers of success:
More than 44 renowned firms and industries are on board for on campus and off campus drive in 2018-19. Around 90% of the students got placed. Among the drive conducted the major associates were with Syngenta pvt. Lmt. , Tata Rallis India, Bioseed, Emami, GSR with maximum package offer of 5.68 Lacs. Seats are filling up fast due to online admissions so be fast to grab your seat. If I talk about placements, University provides separate placement oriented classes, and students also studied subjects like analytical skills, soft skills, etc. Etera as part of the curriculum to prepare the students.
I would like to name a few companies that visit LPU- Nestle, VLCC Health Care, HDFC, Rallis India, and many other firms. LPU offers different types of scholarships on the basis of marks in either of the last two qualifications, LPU NEST Sports, Defence, COVID-19 Frontline Scholarship, and many more. If you are eligible for more than one scholarship, only one scholarship you will get is the maximum one. The best thing is if you get the scholarship, the tuition fees after getting a scholarship will be applicable every semester except a few types of scholarships.
I hope it helps. All the Best.
