Thapar in a glance.

I applied for various colleges like VIT, Vellore, NIT Jalandhar, also some private universities like BITS Pilani but didn't get my preferred branch that is computer engineering so I joined Thapar university. No, I didn't avail any quota for admission. I got admission based on the 12th board examination marks as that was the criteria and minimum marks were 93 for the COE stream. Due to the covid admission process was in online mode so all the counseling sessions were held online.

I choose this course because this has many job opportunities in the future and also has an interest in coding. Thapar has a 1:100 faculty: student ratio. Every faculty member has a minimum master's degree but many also have a PHD level degree in various fields. Exams are held after a period of 5-6 months and their difficulty level is an average one.

Many big companies like Flipkart, Delloite, Sandisk, TT, Paytm, etc come each year in summer and selects students for internships for a period of 6-8 months. Students get internships at the end of the second year or in the mid of the third year. Projects that are done by students in these internships help them to enhance thier skills and to build up their resume to a greater level which helps them in the future.

From 6-7 semesters onwards, students are eligible for campus placements and can apply for the same. Over 200+ companies visit thapar each year which picks students according to thier skills and needs. These companies include Google, Amazon, DE Shaw, Microsoft, Arcesium, and many more. Higest package each year goes 45 lakhs approx and the average goes around 8-9 lakhs. 95% of Students get placed from Thapar each year which is really a good rate. My current plans are a getting a web developer job after completing my degree.

Thapar is a little expensive than other colleges. Around 25 lakhs is the fee for a full 4 year B.E course which includes hostel fees as well. Thara provides all the scholarships which are approved by the government and also provide a merit-based scholarship and also provide an educational loan to students.

Thapar conducts many festivals like at the starting of the college you get too experience a frosh week followed by an annual fest and a big food festival as well also many technical fests are held on a regular basis. Thapar a big library which has over 40000+ ebooks and 60000+ books and hundreds of journals which you can read whenever you want. Classroom are fully ac equipped with modern facilities and digital technology alongside a good music system with a strength of 250 students in one classroom. Thapar has every sport ground be it a indoor like badminton aur table tennis or an outdoor like lawn tennis basketball cricket net. etc.Each hostel is equipped with a gym also. Thapar has a large number of social groups or socities run by students such as CCS, Mudra,MLSC,Owasp etc. alongside many other nontechnical workshops as well.

Hostels are well equipped with AC's and attached washrooms there are 5-6 hostels only for boys and 3-4 for girls. Meal served here is of all types of nutritious and Chinese as well which students can have according to their need. Registraion for hostel and payment all things are done online on thapar's official website which really is secure and has a good interface. There are a large number of pg and rooms are available outside thapar which you can rent on cheaper rates but they are not of good quality as thapar's hostels.
