Lovely Professional University (LPU) offers robust placement support, but for part-time Ph.D. candidates , the situation is a bit different compared to full-time students. Part-time Ph.D. students typically pursue their research while managing other professional commitments, which means they are not always involved in the traditional placement process that LPU organizes for undergraduate and full-time postgraduate students. However, LPU does provide career guidance and professional development opportunities to all its students, including part-time Ph.D. candidates, especially in terms of networking, academic collaborations, and exposure to industry events or seminars.

For part-time Ph.D. students, the placement focus is more on academic and research-based roles rather than corporate placements. Many part-time Ph.D. students in sociology might already be working professionals, such as teachers, researchers, or in administrative roles, and they may seek further academic roles, research positions, or opportunities in policy-making institutions. LPU's Research & Development division and industry collaborations could help part-time Ph.D. candidates access such opportunities, but it's worth noting that placement assistance for part-time students is typically less formalized and more tailored to individual professional goals .
