Is COE at Thapar University really good? Are there opportunities for internships?

COE is one of the best branches of Thapar University offering a plethora of job opportunities and exposure to students. Sparing a few professors, the department is blessed with some of the best faculty members. 

The internship scenario specifically is great for this branch and one of my friends at Thapar University told me that 5 of his batchmates received internship offers from Microsoft IT. Other companies offering internship offers included Expedia, Snapdeal, Royal Bank of Scotland, ARM, etc. The students received stipends in the range of 20-40k per month. Most of these companies offer PPOs to their students.

Additionally, the research internships are great. One of my friends had the opportunity to intern at IIT Roorkee after his 2nd year. Many others got selected at IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay, Kanpur, Guwahati, Ropar, Gandhinagar, Mandi, etc. The reputation of Thapar University is such that it plays a very positive role in the selection of students.

Overall, the brand value of Thapar University makes it possible for big companies to offer lucrative packages and roles.
