    Both of these are renowned names, both have their own strengths, While Thapar's strength is its heritage and goodwill accrued over the 50 year period, LPU's strength is its intellectual capital. Since the placements are considered as the ultimate barometer of success of organisation, I'll enumerate the placements of both. As per the website of Thapar university, it has got 282 companies visiting the campus and with 994 offers. Compare it to LPU : it attracts more than 300+ companies only for its CSE !
    With 650 companies in total out of which more than 60 offer above 10LPA, 100 are from fortune 500 and more than 100 which come to LPU on
