Thapar University does not release official data for branch-wise placements so I contacted a friend who is currently pursuing a COE course there.
As per the information he shared, the recent highest package received by a COE student at Thapar University stood at INR 39 lakhs while the average package of COE was in the range of 10-12 lakhs. The placement percentage is usually around 100% although only the most skilled ones receive packages above 10-15 LPA.
The kind of companies and the packages they offer depend on your soft and technical skills. Here, you have to work hard to get offers from the best companies else you will remain unplaced. It’s better to start preparing for the interviews in the 3rd year itself when you have to sit for internships.
