Thapar University (formerly TIET)

[Based on info from Mandatory Disclosure on the official website ]

Thapar University or previously TIET (Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology - Patiala) takes students through AIEEE , with cut-offs within 20K ranks.
The mandatory disclosure on official website , gives the following (latest) information :

For 2007-2008 (till July 31st July 2008)
Minimum
Salary : 2.20 lakhs
Maximum Salary : 12.75 lakhs
Average Salary : 3.97 lakhs

CS had a placement % of 81% . Electronics related streams had 93%(Communications) and 89%(Instrumentation).Chemical and Civil had 91% placements whereas Mechanical had 88%.Electrical had only 77% and Biotech 81%.

For 2008-2009 (till August 31st July 2008) 104 companies had visited the campus for placements down from 132 the previous year.
Within the list of 104 companies , most of them were small/medium Indian companies.Some notable Core MNC companies were : ST Microelectronics , Oracle , Freescale , DE Shaw.These would have offerred 6 lpa +.Also the same with the IOCL .
IT companies like Infosys , Wipro , TCS , Accenture (and possible IBM and Amdocs) were also present , they must have offered 3-4.5 lpa. Siemens and Erricson could have offered 4 lpa +.
Note that the average salaries(132 companies) are for 2007-2008 whereas the prominent names of 104 companies(above) are for 2008-2009.

Though Thapar has higher AIEEE cutoffs , its placement scenario doesn't match up to other comparable AIEEE colleges like the ones mentioned on this blog.

Thanks for sharing nice info.

The acceptance of only the jee mains score has given a major boost
This year there are no seats left for spot counselling in the general category so I believe the Thapar quality will be maintained and to becoming good.
