Which institution is better for CS: Thapar University, LNMIIT, or Nirma University?
One of my friends studied at LNMIIT, so I might be able to provide you some information about it.
CS at Thapar is combined with other courses, some of which are worthy while others are not. You have to choose the course which you are interested in. Depending on that you can opt for the college, be it Thapar or LNMIIT.
The infrastructure and facilities at LNMIIT are really good. Faculty members are enthusiastic about both academics and extracurriculars. They will guide you through every step. LNMIIT has a great coding culture. Also, you will have cooperative seniors.
| Categories | LNMIIT | Thapar | Nirma |
| Course Fee | 12.36 lakhs | 13.23 lakhs | 7.24 lakhs |
| Highest CTC | 22 LPA | 8-10 LPA | 12-16 LPA |
| Average CTC | 11 LPA | 6 LPA | 7-9 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | TCS, CTS, Accenture, Capgemini, etc. | ZS Associates, Byju’s, TCS, ITC, etc. | Bosch, Havells, Honeywell, JP Morgan, etc. |
I am not well aware of Thapar, I can only say that the campus and course curriculum is more or less similar to LNMIIT, unlike Nirma which can be a bit different. So finally I will suggest you go for LNMIIT. Make Thapar your second choice as the quality of the branch varies. Lastly opt for Nirma if both do not work out.
Where should I pursue my Computer Science course, Thapar University or Manipal University?
My brother did his MBA from Manipal University and it has been one of the best decisions of his life. While both are prime universities, Manipal holds an edge due to the following reasons.

- In recent QS ranking 2020, Manipal University secured 17th rank all over India and 200th all over Asia, making it one of the top-ranked private universities in India.
- Manipal University has also ranked way above the famous BHU (IIT BHU) in the World QS ranking 2021. Manipal university ranked #751-800 whereas BHU, and Thapar belonged to the same bracket of #801-1000.

What should be preferred, CS at Thapar Patiala or Electrical Engineering at PEC Chandigarh?
As these are two distinct branches of engineering, you should pursue a topic that piques your interest.
- CS is primarily concerned with software, whereas EE is more concerned with hardware.
- Fees may be high, but consider it an investment because if you learn and perform well, your first year's salary will pay for four years of education and beyond.
- However, listen to your heart and natural instincts.
- A CS graduate has more demand than an Electrical graduate. This is due to the rapid and constant growth of the corporate world.
- Electrical Engineering students can also sit for placements of both core and IT firms.
| Categories | CS at Thapar Patiala | Electrical at PEC Chandigarh |
| Course Fee | 13.23 lakh | 6.39 lakh |
| Highest CTC | 20 LPA | 8-10 LPA |
| Average CTC | 11 LPA | 6 LPA |
| Recruiting Companies | Wipro, Infosys, TCS, IBM, etc. | Phillips, L&T, JP Morgan, TCS, etc. |
It all depends on what you're interested in. If you are interested in CS, then choose Thapar (if fees are not an issue) or electrical in PEC Chandigarh.
Which college will polish my communication skills better, CGC Landran or Thapar?
Colleges like CGC Landran and Thapar are the best and most reputed colleges in the country. Although, if comparing between both of them, according to my friends at CGC Landran, they have more opportunities and exposure. You could get and utilize it to improve your communication skills.
- CGC Landran and the best academics conduct various competitions and events regularly so that a student can build up his/her personality and communication skills.
- The literary events such as group discussions, debate competitions, guest lecturers, talent hunts, and many other events are held regularly.
- Thapar University provides the best academics as the faculty in the institute is quite good but they don’t focus on communication skills.

Is IIIT Una better than Thapar Institute Patiala?
Thapar institute has been established way before IIIT Una and over this period of time has created a great alumni network working at different positions worldwide. The faculty in Thapar Currently has over 20+ years of experience and is well known among the students.
On the other hand, IIIT Una is a newly established IIIT and the problem with this is that it still does not even have its own campus. IIIT Una is operating under NIT Hamirpur; this leads to the problem of no classes to fit all these students of both different Universities together. The classes get clashed, labs are not enough and faculty has a hard time coping up. This creates chaos on campus, which results in lower placement.
Here are the recent placement highlights at the institutes.
