Yes, LPU offers a 5% relaxation of marks in 10+2 for north-east students for the BSc (Hons) in Agriculture. So, students from the northeast can get admission with 55% of aggregate marks in 10+2.

No, LPU doesn’t offer a BA in culinary arts. LPU offers 2 programs in BSc (Culinary Arts). One is a regular BSc in Culinary Arts and the other one is a BSc in Culinary Arts with International Credit Transfer Option.

Since you have completed a diploma in Mechanical Engineering, you can take admission in either BTech Mechanical Engineering or BTech Automobile Engineering. After taking a look at the details of each of the programs, you can choose whichever aligns more with your interest. I have listed the pros for both branches below.

Pros of LPU BTech Mechanical Engineering:

• International Credit Transfer Option, i.e. start your degree at LPU and finish it abroad at a foreign university.
• International ties with top foreign universities like Nottingham UK, Nantes University, NAU, etc.
• Option of selecting automobile engineering as an elective course.

Pros of LPU BTech Automobile Engineering:

• International Credit Transfer Option, i.e. start your degree at LPU and finish it abroad at a foreign university.
• International ties with the University of Huddersfield, UK.

LPU has a different fee structure for national and international students for the credit transfer program. I have listed the fee for the credit transfer program for you below.

Yes, there is a BTech CSE program at Christ University with a specialisation in AI and ML that you can pursue. It is a 4-year UG degree in which you will learn about advanced learning solutions imparting innovations in AI and ML. You will develop in-depth knowledge and skills in AI and ML, two rapidly growing fields in the tech industry. 

To be eligible for this course, you need to score a minimum of 50% marks in class 12 with physics, chemistry and maths as the main subjects. The university also provides lateral entry to those with a 3-year engineering diploma. 

The university has allocated 180 seats for BTech CSE AI and ML programs. The total cost to pursue this course is INR 8.60 Lakhs. As per the 2022 report, the highest salary offered to BTech CSE AI and ML students at Christ University was INR 21.46 Lakhs.

As of my knowledge, Christ University does not have any reserved seats for its MBA programs for Christian or backward caste candidates. There is a specific admission process that candidates have to follow to get selected for an MBA irrespective of their castes. 

The university offers a merit and performance-based admission process in which candidates are selected based on their entrance exam scores and performance in group discussions, micro presentations and personal interviews.

Christ University maintains a diverse student body with admission open to eligible students irrespective of their caste.

The total fees come around to INR 10 lakhs. For OBC candidates, there must be some provisions but I am not aware of it. I would suggest you go through the website or contact the admission desk and they will guide you.

Christ University offers multiple specializations for pursuing an MBA. It has over 18 specializations for the students to choose from. The fee structure more or less remains the same across all the specializations. The students are selected for this course after different tests and only the best ones get through. The curriculum is well-designed to meet the industry's needs. The placements provided are quite good and you can expect to get placed at the top companies.

Christ University will offer a final Executive MBA degree. You will receive this certificate once you complete your degree. The Executive MBA is a certified advanced MBA degree provided by Christ University. The executive MBA is pursued by people who have many years of work experience or entrepreneurs who want to learn more about the business and management landscape. It is an excellent opportunity for learners who want to excel in their career. This course will guide you with advanced management skills and businesses around the world. It will help you become a better leader and understand your teammates. It will help you to open new horizons of success in your career path. It is an advanced degree so most people who pursue this course usually come from a background of good work experience. 

Christ University does not even have any such provision and every MBA student doesn't need to go on an international campus tour. There is one summer program where Christ gives opportunities to the students to go abroad and study for one semester. However, I am not sure if this is valid for regular MBA students. You can contact the administration department of the University and they will guide you with this. 

During your MBA you will have to do an internship which is mandatory for all and you will be evaluated based on your performance during this internship. You will also need to work on your communication skills if you are aiming to pursue your MBA from Christ as the competition is high and you will be surrounded by some of the brightest and smartest minds in the country. 

No, there are no evening classes or distance MBA courses here. Christ University offers a full-time MBA only. It is a 2 year postgraduate degree and Christ offers about 18 MBA specializations to the students. 

However, if you are not able to pursue the degree in full-time mode, I would suggest you look for other distance options that are available in your city. Many colleges provide distance MBA degrees, IGNOU being one of them. Christ University does have some diploma courses about which you can enquire at the admission desk. This diploma course might help you in your career.
