Why should I leave low end NIT's and join Thapar institute, if I get, BE mechanical starting from 2017?

Thapar has the legacy of 61 years and it is any day better than the upcoming NITs. Thapar has a well-established curriculum plus they mainly focus on practical learning by providing projects to their students. Moreover, the students undergo rigorous training after their 3 year. The UG program in mechanical is ABET accredited and is specially designed to build a strong base in traditional mechanical engineering. With mechanical engineering, they focus on production designing, manufacturing setups and could implement policies own their own. They are know for their state-of-the -art infrastructure that is the reason they have well-equipped labs with advanced technologies using non-traditional methods. The experienced faculty at Thapar is known for grilling their students thus producing some finest engineers from the campus. In terms of placements, L&T, Mahindra, and Mahindra,Honda Car, HeroMoto Corp ltd are few corporate giants which have visited last year. You can't expect this kind of exposure in upcoming NIT's. Therefore, if you're ready to sweat out and work in a core field then Thapar is the right place to join. Good luck!

Hi Jwalant, Thapar has always been renowned for mechanical engineering specifically until computer sciences grabbed the top spot certainly due to high market demands, but BE in mechanical engineering from Thapar is still ranked above many of the top level NITs. After all what matters is a decent placement and Thapar University will get you one. However, a few changes in the system have been implemented recently due to TU's collaboration with Trinity College, Dublin which is expected to further improve the quality of education. Further, keep in mind that Thapar University is a private institute so the fee is almost double as compared to that of NITs. So, if you do not wish to spend much on Bachelor's degree and go for higher studies immediately after your B.Tech, go for NIT. Go for Thapar University only if you get BE in mechanical engineering or BE in CSE.

Thapar University is one of the best and reputed private universities of India. Lower NIT's are still waiting for proper establishment. You will explore a lot there. Well established university with world class facilities. Go for it without a single thought if the fee is not an issue.
