Thapar the unique approach to MBA

Likes

Whole campus was clean and tidy and ground were maintained properly.
Most of the Professor teach in great detail specially for Finance and Marketing.
All specialization get independent placement training.

Dislikes

Smell and pollution from near factories is unbearable
Industry exposure is next to none for a MBA college
location of college is very remote from main city and roads are non-existent, this is also a reason why good companies don't come to the campus.

Placement Experience:

students are eliglible for placements when they pass previous backlogs and have 75% attendance. almost 50+ companies showed up mostly taking resume and not conducting any interviews. avg. package: 6L almost 70% students got placed mostly in sales.

A Valuable Learning Curve with Real-World Exposure

Likes

Campus Culture and Community- I enjoyed a well rounded campus life. It's a home away from home that fosters friendships and teamwork across disciplines.
Alumni Network- Alumni support referrals ease the placement journey, especially for dilligent students. and talking about the ratio like the ratio is 1:1
Hostel life- Many students appreciate the food quality and the rooms, as the rooms are so spacious and many facilities are given in the hostels. The major thiong that a student would love their is going and sitting with each other after 10.

Dislikes

There's a notable absence of a stong student or formal student body, which leaves some students feeliing disconnected from decision- making.
75% attendance requirement, with very few exceptions allowed, limits flexibility.
Food options sometime fell repetitive after a while.

Placement Experience:

Placement in the college are decent. Mostly students got placed for sales and marketing role. There are very few companies who came for Finance ,HR and Operations and other specializatins. So mostly at the end other specialix=zation students end up with getting a job role in slaes or marketing only.

The best part about college is that even though you do not come from a commerce or a BBA background even then the teachers are so supportive that they are going to provide you the best day can so that you don't feel neglected .
The second best part is that we have to launch our own ventures in the campus itself and sell are products so that we have a live idea of how MBA works and that prepare just for a really competitive world outside.
The faculty gives your best to engage students in glass participations and they provide a very comfortable environment and students take a very good hold of it be also have case study sessions which is the best part.

Dislikes

Nothing as such that I dislike about college it is located in an industrial area so sometimes of foul smell that comes in the environment the but that's ok .

Placement Experience:

The placements of my college of pretty good like the highest package has been continuously increasing in the last odios up to 12:00 p.m. in the last 3 years it has gone from 23 lpa to 27 LPS and we are open that it will again increase in the coming placement. We are actually eligible to set for placements from the second semester itself but particularly speaking about the interviews that the companies take we are eligible to set after exactly after as summer placements even some students get ppo's as the come out of there summer placements so it is basically the second semester where you are eligible to take. Till now there are around 7 to 8 companies that have visited since it is just beginning of the placement sessions Deloitte ,Accenture, Nestle, Hyundai ,Oxane partners are the company that have visited. There is a pretty good number of students were getting placed like out of the hundred students that start for placements recently about 70 to 80% of them had got them place 10% of them will be joining back to the family business and the rest are going to still appear for the placement study till the end of there MBA program. My plans after getting the degree is that I want to work incorporate for a few years and then launch my own startup.

Life @LMTSM more than a Student Life

Placement Experience:

Placements are average as mainly the school brings fresh start ups or the organization which have less than 10 years of experience. Some big companies also come in to provide placements as well. The best company which came in during my time was American Express and they were also offering a decent salary package to the employees. The highest package was INR 17 LPA and on average, the Salary which was offered was INR 5.5 LPA. Maximum of the students were placed with more than 90% placement. I also got placed in two good companies as well.

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.
