Is it worth pursuing B.Tech in Civil Engineering from Thapar? Can I get a government job after completing this course?

In my opinion all universities look towards advancement in education and have a vision to enlighten the youth who could later contribute in betterment of world. Being an LPU alumni, I am well versed with the fact that LPU has a dynamic education system and offers quality education. LPU goes hand-in-hand to keep up up with the pace of advancements and new technologies. And same is taught and inculcated to the students, how to adapt, learn and become efficient in this fast growing technological environment.

Dear Deepu, Choosing a University is a big decision, as our career fully depends upon that. There are some key parameters that we should keep in mind before choosing any University, like, faculty, placements, international exposure, curriculum, alumni of that university. I did MBA from LPU and I had many friends from Civil Engineering, so I have idea course,Placements,Curriculum, etc.One of my friend told that,This programme at LPU include a blend of hands-on experiential learning and theoretical foundational courses. The very best include a mix of traditional learning in laboratories and classrooms with cooperative programs that allow students to gain work experience. Others may include independent research with faculty members another good bet for individuals hoping to go directly into research or the workforce upon graduation. Coming to faculty, they are one of the best mentors to us & everything here is up to the mark. The faculty is supporting if one is willing to learn. They teach the subjects with their full effort. Writing board, screen-projector, labs are used to teach. The college arranges frequent industry visits. New innovative ideas were framed into working models and were showcased to 10000+ school students. The capstone project is an integral part of B. Tech program in which students have to pick a live project based on practical problem-based scenario (ideally from industry) and work for six months under a mentor and present a report at the end. This is beneficial to enhance your presentation skills. Industrial visits are organized to nearby construction sites from time to time. There, you can see actual construction work going on. Be prepare to have dust on your shoes (believe me, it will be worth a lot). You have to ask questions yourself and trigger interest in the activities around you. In order to enhance the learning experience of the civil engineering students, the University has established a laboratory named, Uni lab mechanical testing of building and construction material. National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) is a Constituent Board of Quality Council of India (QCI) that provides CAB (Conformity Assessment Boys) accreditation. With better theoretical and practical knowledge, students are much more competent than any other university. LPU has very good placement records and good infrastructure, companies visit campus, L & T, Simplex Piles Ltd, Era Infrastructure, Gammon India Ltd.
