Thapar for Real

Likes

Hostels and campus environment is totally too adorable.
Rooms are too luxurious and one can live comfortably over there.

Dislikes

Time Management is the thing in which i believe intitute should work upon.
Transport facility should be provided to student which are not opting hostels .

Course Curriculum Overview:

This particular course if good for the students who want to make their career in Instrumentation and Control field. The course is more about sensors and semiconductors and i have keen interest in this particular domain that's why i have chosen this particular course. There is atleast one faculty over 30 students and whole branch is divided into different subgroups for smooth flow of academics. All the teachers are PHD holders from a premium institutes like IITs,NITs,IIITs etc. Its not difficult for someone to crack the semester exams if he/she study on regular basis.

Review of masters in TIET

Likes

Faculty is well educated and has good rapport
Building is very modern and comfortable with centralized ac
Hostel and mess are also good there are many options so people can choose to their convenience

Dislikes

Communication is slow and inefficient messages are given at last moment
Events can be organized a bit better more neatly
Examinations can be held with less chaos

Course Curriculum Overview:

Faculty of the institution is very good. Most faculty members are highly educated and qualified with a strong base in reserach. The student to faculty ratio is also good there are enough faculties to teach a batch of about 50 students. The exams although taken timely feel a bit rushed and the confirmation of syllabus comes at the last minute.

Communication gaps: Students were occasionally confused when administration information was not promptly communicated .

Placement Experience:

Students become eligile for campus placements in their 4th year. Renowned firms such as google, Microsoft, Ameeican express and Goldman sachs visit the campus and offer appealing packages. The averaage payout for students ranges from 10 to 15 lakhs, with the top package reachong to 22-25 lakhs. The university's commitment to encouranging employability is shown in placement success rate, which ranges between 70-80%.

A review from a average thapar student

Likes

Campus life is very good as you have 250 acre huge campus to walk around everyday with your friends
Campus is situated in mid of city so there is a plenty pf space to roam around and do cafe hopping and shopping
There are too many cafes and food point around every corner. There are various shops for everything like sports, tech items, general stores

Dislikes

Worst thing is heavy fees. Not everyone can afford it. Lifestyle of people is also on the higher side here
If you work in societies. Thapar management will make you suffer a lot. It is really difficult to work under them sometimes
Profs are okayish. Like any other engineering college you had to study from notes or youtube at last

Course Curriculum Overview:

My branch is electronic and computer. Placement of this branch is very good as both tech and non tech companies allows it. Branches are devided into groups. For lectures every 120-140 student there is a professor. For labs the the size is 20-25. Most of the profs are supporting. But its a engineering clg, they teach average only if you compares it with your school or coachings, many will just read out slides or give you pdf materials. Exams are just okayishly hard. You have practical quize endsem and midsems.

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.

Why are the placements in Thapar University so high despite the bad reviews of many students studying at Thapar?

Kriti GoyalStudied at Thapar University (2019)

Thapar University has better placements than most private colleges and NITs. But the problem is, placements here directly depend on the grades of the students, and only the serious ones who work hard to build their profile bag the best packages.

Now the reviews of students are mixed because not everyone invests the same efforts and bags high packages. The people giving bad reviews are the ones who did not build their resumes well.

The best thing about Thapar University is the level of freedom you get to experience here. However, the increasing intake is slowly deteriorating the student quality so you might want to consider this before joining.
