Sudip Roy's Review On Thapar Institute Of Engineering And Technology - [Thapar University], Patiala

AIEEE Rank 29000, Near to home, and highly reputed, with good placements, and particularily highly acclaimed civil engineering faculty.

The course curriculum covered all the major aspects of civil engineering in a very organised and thoughtful manner, ranging from road construction, building construction, water engineering, etc.

The college is in constant talks with industry as a result of which they are able to arrange internship for students. However, the stipend offered is just 5000 to 10000 rs. However, since the purpose is to learn it makes sense, since the companies are reputed and present an oppurtunity to learn.

The placement situation has improved over the years. The package CTC varies from 3lakh to 14 lakhs. Reputed companies like Gammon India, C &C Constructions, L&T, Punj and Lyod etc visit campus.

The events organised are Aranya which is a technical fest. The students are given an oppurtunity to organise and engage students. This instills confidence in students at organizing events.

The fee structure has take a huge upturn. It has increased manifold. This has also affected the stature of college. Some even now term it as money mending machine.

No. this is the area where we lack. Though there are scholarships. But, the amount is very less and compared to fee.

The alumni network has been revived in past years. It was literally null. But the initiative of some students revived this. We have both entreprenuers and people in top management of top companies.

The exam structure is very hectic. You are busy throughout the semester. First we have quizzes at regular intervals, then mid semester, then again quizzes and finally end semester.

Highly experienced and gave personal attention whenever needed. However, sometimes it depended on person to person. But the faculty was accessible and also involved students in there research activities.
