In our campus I love ked the infrastructure and the environment of class room the most .all classes are updated according to the new technology as required for effective teaching. All classes are fully ac.
There are lot of placement and internship opportunities for the students those who are interested. Our campus has around 7.5 lakhs of average package. With all these opportunities there are lot of social societies of students interaction and fum

Dislikes

The first thing that I personally not like here is the time table for our classes the time table is very hactic. We were so busy all the day.
Secondly I didn't like the lab evaluation timing. Because lab evaluation are scheduled near the mst and est that students didn't get the sufficient time to study

Placement Experience:

After the 6 semester students are eligible for placements but after the 3semster onwards students can apply for internships. From 6semster onwards there are many companies like for electrical engineering students are Bajaj, maruti, Volvo, TVs,samsung,hero etc and many more. The average package for electrical students should be around 7.5 lakhs. And the highest package in our campus is 50lakhs around. As per the offical data provide by faculties there are around 80 percent students got placement out of 100. My plan is to get the placements in a good company with good package and if I didn't make it then I go for MBA

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.

Dislikes

Entry time inside campus i.e. 8:00 pm is worst

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for placement from the 7th semester but before that, they can get internships in various companies. The highest CTC was about 64 LPA given by LinkedIn and the average package is near about 8-12 LPA. My plans after my degree would be to join PSU or get a government job.

From semester 6th, the students are eligible to sit for the campus placements. The major companies that visit the campus every year are JP Morgan and Chase and Co., Salesforce, Expedia, Microsoft, Apple, Google, Intuit, BlackRock, and many more. The highest offer last year was 60 lacs and the average package was 14 lacs according to the stats mentioned on the official website. Out of the students who sit for the campus placements, 75% of them get offers from the companies. I am planning to work in corporate for 2-5 years and then start a startup of my own.

Hostel, Library, Seniors, Placements these were some of the things that I really admire about my college and feel lucky to be a student of Thapar University. I was also fortunate enough to have great friends and helping seniors always by my side.

The campus offers good placement opportunities for students enrolled in BE program. Companies visiting the campus hire for Tech, non-tech, and core roles as well. However, tech opportunities are more relative to other domains. The highest offer made was around 40 lahks pa with an avg of 10 lakh pa. 70-80 percent of the batch gets hired easily during the campus placements.

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.
