    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 only other than IITs & Iims !
    Moreover LPU places over 6 K students every year which in itself is a great FEAT. So LPU has a higher bandwidth with regards to placements than Thapar. DVD.

    Dear Saezy,
    The placements are exemplary. Im a pass-out myself and Im placed in a decent company, while some of my friends are placed abroad, too. Industrial exposure is offered through in-house training programs. The university organizes many external workshops for us. The package provided by on-campus jobs is also satisfactory. Universitys environment is pretty decent with high-tech security. They also organize regular interactive one-on-one sessions with experts where we can discuss our views and share our doubts and problems.
    As a general rule for placements, a lot more will depend upon your own hard work, communication & presentatio

    Well, that depends!
    Each University has its pros and cons but in this case, I would suggest you to, go for LPU
    Why? Because one thing we should keep in mind before taking admission for any course is that the University we are choosing must provide us deep and practical knowledge of core subjects, must adapt for new technologies faster and the curriculum should be revised regularly to meet the company standard, the University environment. And then the placements also plays a very vital role in that. Keeping all these points in mind, I would say that LPU would be the best choice. Talking about Placements :
