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

Overall the college is one of the best private colleges in India. It is great to be a part of it. They provides with great placement oppertunities which is really nice and not able to get in many government colleges also.

The cource curriculum is almost same as any other college. It has some 30 to 35 hours of academic sessions per week where saturday and sunday are off. There are two written exams conducted as MST and EST. Third are the sessionals through tut test quizs and labs.

Placements here are decent. Many companies like D Show, Microsoft, Rubix come here to offer internships and jobs with the package maxed out at 40 lacs. The placement cell here is very organised and helpful. If you have any ability irrespective of branch you are refered to the companies for placements. Placements here are more than 90 percent in total.

Here are many types of societies like cultural, technical, enviornmental etc. These societies have their different events throughout the year. Societies like Virsa organises many Punjabi cultured festivals. And every tech society organises hackathons etc.

The fee structure here is expensive. Yes I mean it. The fee here is increased every semester by 10 percent with the hostel fee fir a semester is approx 40k and more. All this gives a sum of almost 5 lacs a year which is more than double of any government engineering college.

Here are two types of scholarships. One is based on the financial status of the student and another based on the academics of the student. There are scholarships upto 100 percent of tutuion fees. If student enters through JEE and has decent marks can avail scholarship based on JEE and CBSE marks. This scholarship can be continued by scoring 8.5 GPA every semester.

Here students are also encouraged to take part in sports. Many intercollege sports events are held here. There is great facility of sports with a synthetic track for running, cricket ground, hockey ground football ground, enclosed badminton play area, tennis play areas and also there are many other sports playable like vollyball and basketball etc.

The infrastructure at histel is great with many choices of hostel and ofcource different fee structures. Mess facility here is decent. We are also provided with the laundary facility which is also decent and very handy.

Yes there is a different society that deals with all these named as Student Alumni Interaction Cell. They organises different events like group discussioms panel discussions with the alumini and great people from this corporate world. Also seniors here are very helpful. Here is a society named Frosh that helps freshers during councelling and make them feel home in here. Organises many fun events of about 2 to 3 weeks to just welcome them in the college.

I gave an all india entrance exam and scored decently and on those basis I got selected for councelling. During counseling I had to select my branch prefernces and choosing COE as 1st preference I got admission in this college.

College faculty is great. They are very friendly and always available. We can reach them any time through phone calls or in person in their respective cabins from 8Am till 5pm. They have great knowledge about the subjects they are teaching and almost everyone of them are PhDs
