Life at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology - a brief look

4.5Helpful

Likes

Infrastructure : The campus has the most well constructed, modern and impressive library and academic block that exceeds expectations. The lecture theatres and library being so well made add to the productivity by a huge margin !
Exposure to the best : Whether its Google or apple , you will always have a senior placed in one of these dream companies who can guide you to do the same when your placement comes around.

Dislikes

Sometimes the classes schedule may get hectic for a student on some particular days which may lead to lack of skill development and extra curricular on those days

Course Curriculum Overview:

My course is Electrical and computer engineering. I took this course because of the dual knowledge I will be getting in both the Computer science field and the electrical field. Today these two fields work together to be the most important work area at present. For example companies like Nvidia require a very specific skill set that lies in the intersection of these two branches. Apart from the intersection too , one can easily make their career in either one of those fields too making this choice perfect for me!

Campus life at Thapar University is really good.
Faculty, staff and infrastructure is up to date.

Dislikes

Classes start from 8:00 AM for all the years.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placement after 6th semester. Various technical companies and core branch-related companies visit every year during placements. Companies visiting include Adobe, Accenture, Airbnb, Bajaj, Orient, TCS etc. Students who aim for placements and are eligible for it get placement. My aim is to get a good on-campus placement.

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.
