Overall: After spending two years at the university, I must say it is one of the best universities in Punjab. I am currently in the second year of BTech + MBA integrated programme. Our curriculum is designed taking into consideration the demands of the future. The faculty is highly qualified and experience. However, there are certain things that needs attention such as hefty hostel fee and too much politics at the campus.

Faculty: One of the biggest plus point of the university is its faculty. My professors are highly educated and well respected in their field. They give equal weightage to theoractical and practical knowlegde. The only thing of concern is early morning classes which start at 8 am.

Overall: There isn't a day when i don't miss my time at Thapar University. I completed my MCA from the university in 2020. The university is one of the best private universities in Punjab. The thing i miss the most is the campus environment. There was cultural diversity with students from different states and nationalities. Thapar University also helped me in kick starting my professional career as i got campus placement. The university is ranked by prestigious body such as NIRF, Times Higher Education etc.

Faculty: Thapar University faculty is always there for students. If i share my experience then i found my mentor in my professors. They guided me and helped me in every step. Talking about studies, so curriculum is designed keeping in mind the changing industry dynamics.

Dear Alokik Mangla, 

The admission policies and requirements for Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (TIET) can change over time, so it's essential to verify the most recent information from their official website or admission department. However, I can provide you with some general guidance.

Typically, when applying for a Master of Science (M.Sc.) program, universities and institutions consider the overall academic record, including the marks obtained in previous semesters or years of study. Having a compartment in the fifth semester of your B.Sc. degree may have an impact on your application.

In such cases, universities often have specific guidelines regarding compartment exams or supplementary exams. It is advisable to reach out to the admission department of TIET directly to inquire about their policy on compartment exams and their specific requirements for M.Sc. admissions. By contacting Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology, you can receive accurate and up-to-date information regarding their admission process, including any special considerations for applicants with compartments.

I hope this helps! 

If you have more queries or questions, we would be happy to help
