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

Placement Experience:

The highest package received was 42 lacs and the average package is 9 lakh in CSE the average package in mechanical was 6 lacs but I think now the average has been decreased because of covid-19 lot more less placements are being provided to students in mechanical engineering but the computer science branch placements was still performing very well. There was a record that Thapar placement team didn't even consider the company offering below 5 lpa but due to the harsh time of covid-19 as well as automobile sector partial shutdown Blue chip shortage and many other challenges the placements have been affected drastically

College review

Placement Experience:

Students in the 7th semester are eligible to sit in campus placements till 8 th semester. I think campus placements of thapar university is really good for the past 3 years. But Covid has affected the automotive industry and so as the placements of mechanical students but campus placements for Computer Science branch is really good. In CS branch approximately 90% of the batch is placed. Companies Visited are Amazon, Google, Apple, Flipkart any more for Computer science branch If a student is not placed the college assist you till end of the year after completing the degree which I think is really appreciateable.

BEST COLLEGE- Read this!

Placement Experience:

Mostly in 3rd-year students start to get interned and get placements by the end of 4th year. Many companies visit here like Microsoft, Wipro, cisko, google, etc and offer many offers. One of the highest packages in 2020 was offered for 44 LPA and the average package is 6-7 LPA. Most of the students get placements on campus. I also want to get on-campus placements and achieve great heights.

A Walk Down through the Memory Lane

Placement Experience:

So basically when the student enters 4th Year he/she becomes eligible for placement. Around 200 plus companies visit the campus ranging from Jp morgan to the big four. The highest package goes around 50 lac offered by Microsoft while the average package is around 7 lac. The percentage of students getting placed depends upon the branch but usually, around 75% get placed.

College experience - [Thapar], Patiala

Placement Experience:

For every Branch, the placement period varies, for some branches, it is 6th and 7th because they have their training semester as their final semester and for some, it is 7th and 8th Semester because they have their training semester in the 6th Semester. All the big and major MNC's of different Industries/Sectors come to pick students from Thapar. The highest package that I know of is 54lakhs per annum of a friend placed in Microsoft, though the average package varies from branch to branch, for the IT Sector branches the average goes around 10 lakhs for some it is 6 lakhs but not below that. Almost all the students are Sincere and hardworking towards their career and future.

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.
