LPU follows a comprehensive multi-tier mentorship model that ensures every student receives personalized support throughout their academic journey. The system includes:
Faculty-Based Mentorship: Every student is assigned a dedicated faculty mentor who offers academic guidance, emotional counselling, and career advice. Using LPU’s online mentoring platform, mentors monitor progress, identify students needing additional support, and nurture high achievers for leadership and advanced learning opportunities. Mentors undergo specialized training programmes to effectively address the diverse needs of all students, including those from underrepresented backgrounds.
Peer Support System: LPU’s Peer Tutoring System enables trained senior students to mentor their juniors, providing academic assistance, sharing experiences, and helping them adjust to university life. This initiative fosters collaborative learning, inclusivity, and confidence-building, especially benefiting international, first-generation, and differently-abled learners.
Mentoring through Events, Workshops, and Boot Camps: Regular mentoring workshops, leadership boot camps, and inclusive events are organized by student clubs, faculty, and staff to encourage participation, enhance interpersonal skills, and create a sense of belonging among diverse student groups.
Psychological Well-being & Happiness Program: Managed by the Department of Counselling & Happiness, this initiative supports the mental and emotional well-being of students through individual and group counselling, psychological assessments, and positive psychology interventions. Collaborations with YourDOST online counselling services, psycho-neurobics labs, and mindfulness centres ensure easy access to professional support. The program focuses on promoting resilience, empathy, and emotional intelligence across all learners, including international, LGBTQ+, and differently-abled students. To date, over 15,000 individuals have benefitted from this initiative, contributing to a healthier and more engaged learning community.
LPU extends similar mentoring and well-being frameworks to its faculty and staff to promote inclusion, professional satisfaction, and personal growth.
Buddy Program for Staff: Every new employee is paired with an experienced “Buddy” who helps them understand university operations, policies, and culture. This initiative creates a supportive and welcoming environment for all new joiners, including those from diverse or underrepresented backgrounds, ensuring smooth onboarding and integration into the LPU community.
Well-being, Health, and Social Security Measures: LPU offers comprehensive health and welfare services, including a campus hospital, pathology lab, physiotherapy centre, and 24-hour chemist shop, providing free or subsidized consultations for staff and dependents. Additional benefits include ESI coverage, Mediclaim insurance, personal accident cover, maternity benefits, and dependent support schemes, ensuring emotional and financial security for all.
Work-Life and Family Support: Facilities such as residential accommodation, creche and daycare centres (in collaboration with IVY World School), transport facilities, and sports and recreational amenities ensure a balanced and inclusive work environment. These initiatives particularly benefit working parents, differently-abled staff, and international employees, helping them maintain a healthy work-life balance.
Career and Research Support: LPU provides financial support for research, conference participation, and professional memberships, along with research extension leaves and innovation awards to empower faculty in their academic pursuits and professional development.
Through this comprehensive and inclusive mentoring and counselling ecosystem, Lovely Professional University ensures that every student, faculty, and staff member—regardless of identity, background, or ability—receives equal support and encouragement to thrive academically, emotionally, and professionally. LPU’s commitment to equity, empathy, and empowerment defines its culture of care and makes it a truly inclusive and future-ready institution.
