Which is better in terms of placements between mechanical engineering from Thapar or CSE from LPU?

Question

Aditya kumar Tyagi · Answer

Thapar is a very well known university for engineering and its placement is extremely good. Every year Maruti Suzuki India Ltd, Microsoft India, ZS Associates India Pvt Ltd, Make Mytrip.com Hindustan Unilever Ltd. etc. Visits Thapar and hire many good students. Thapar is an elite college of country, and LPU is a marketing gimmick. So according to me you should go for Thapar University.

ParmSidhu · Answer

If placements are the main factor, CSE at LPU and Mechanical Engineering at Thapar represent two very different career paths, so the comparison should be made carefully. In general, CSE offers access to a much larger technology job market, including software development, data science, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, cloud computing and IT services. A strong CSE student at LPU can therefore target opportunities across a broad range of technology companies. Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology has a strong reputation in engineering education and an established alumni network. Mechanical Engineering at Thapar can provide good opportunities in core engineering, manufacturing, automotive, industrial and engineering-services sectors. However, the number of technology-oriented openings available to CSE students is generally much larger than the specialised core mechanical opportunities. At LPU, CSE students can benefit from a large campus ecosystem, technology-focused programmes, coding activities, internships, projects, hackathons and industry interaction. Students who develop strong programming, data structures and algorithms, problem-solving and communication skills can compete for software and technology roles. LPU also offers different CSE specialisations, allowing students to explore emerging areas. If you are comparing only the likely breadth of placement opportunities, I would lean towards CSE at LPU, particularly if you are comfortable with programming and genuinely interested in technology. If your passion is mechanical engineering and you want to build a career in manufacturing, automobiles, design or core engineering, Thapar Mechanical may be the better personal choice despite having a narrower placement market. Ultimately, university name alone does not determine placement. Skills, internships, projects, academic performance and interview preparation matter considerably. Therefore, for a student focused primarily on placements and open to a technology career, LPU CSE can be the more practical choice, while Thapar Mechanical is better suited to someone committed to the mechanical-engineering field.

Tashi · Answer

I personally believe that every branch has a scope if you have a strong orientation and you don't leave any stone unturned to learn it. Mechanical Engineering is one of the oldest and the broadest types of engineering which is concerned with the design, manufacturing and maintenance of mechanical systems. Whereas Computer Science Engineering (CSE) encompasses a variety of topics that relates to computation, like analysis of algorithms, programming languages, programme design, software, and computer hardware. Now, you have to identify the area of your interest and choose the field accordingly. So, if you wish to be a software engineer, then LPU is the right option and CSE is the right cup of tea for you. I believe that output is the function of inputs means if input is good, output has to be, so is the case for the placements of LPU. My niece who studied in LPU told that LPU believes in delivering the quality, for same, it has hired faculty from the reputed institutes like IITs, NITs. The syllabus is vetted from the company officials of Cognozant, SAP, Microsoft etc. To provide updated curriculum. LPU has his own space shuttle programme, where students and faculty members are working on satellite programme with the joint help of ISRO. Addressing your particular query of placements, every year more than 600 companies visit LPU to recruit students at good packages. The brands such as Microsoft, Google, Oracle, Amazon, Cognizant Technology Solutions, TCS, Tech Mahindra, Amdocs, Capgemini, Verizon, SAP Labs, Hitachi Power, Videocon, L&T Technology Services, Ericsson, HCL Technologies, Asahi India, Ceasefire Industries, Sandhar Technologies, Indus tower, Decathlon Sports, Exide Industries etc. Have visited to recruit students. (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/spotlight/lpu-one-of-the-few-indian-universities-from-where-google-microsoft-hire/articleshow/75690005.cms?from=mdr) The highest Package Availed by Engineering (CSE) Student MS Tanya Arora is 42 LPA for batch 2020 by Microsoft.
