Best campus life

4.4Helpful

Likes

Campus life and placements are the things that a student will definitely like about the college.
The college has amazing infrastructure. From classrooms to hostel rooms, each space is beautifully designed

Dislikes

Crowd is something that the institute lacks in.
Timings for girls hostel is very strict, so it should be extended little

Placement Experience:

The campus placements are good enough at thapar. It depends on the branch to branch regarding which semester the students are elgible to sit for on camous placements . For major branches inclusing cs, ee, ece the students are eligible in 6th semester for internships and full time offers. Top recruiters like apple, zscaler, Oracle, American express, zs associates , jp morgan,deloitte, bajaj etc come for on campus placements. Around 90% students get placements if they sit for it. My plans after the degree is to go for masters degree from a top reputed institute.

Thapar University: 2 Answered Questions

What is your review of Thapar University(Patiala)?

Dhruv Chowdhurystudied at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (2020)

Thapar University has a brand name, however, the ground reality for this university is not very pleasant and it is swiftly losing the qualities that defined it in its glorious past. The rankings of students enrolled in the university are going down each year. The administration is taking serious measures against the same, however, because of these measures the other students are suffering. One example is the strict entry and exit timings.

Academically, your experience in this institution will differ according to your branch. The CSE branch has a cooperative faculty and lenient attendance criteria. This is not the case for other branches. In other branches, some faculty members may hold personal grudges against you while some may fail you for missing the required attendance mark (75%) by as small as 0.1%. The mess is below average and the classrooms are not very impressive. The administration is very slow.

However, there are positive points about Thapar University as well. The alumni from Thapar are placed in some of the best companies in India and abroad. It has some of the best synthetic courts in any engineering college in India. There are many teachers at Thapar University who serve as a source of inspiration to their students. Sports facilities for all the major sports are great. Placements at Thapar University are great and the labs are well updated. Even though Thapar is facing a drug problem, its teachers and administration are very active in trying to solve this issue.

Thus, even though Thapar University has outlived its glorious days, it has some positive points too. It is completely your choice whether or not you wish to take admission into it.
