Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology - [Thapar University], Patiala - List of Professors and Faculty

I am an alumnus of Thapar University. Back when I was a student, Dr. V.P. Aggarwal was one of the best teachers at Thapar.

Back in 2014, sir used to teach us KOM (Kinematics of Machines - UME 302). I would usually arrive late for all my lectures, and sit for them with almost no interest. But one of sir’s classes truly inspired me and changed my perspective on life. 

Our ESTs were nearing, and so those days very few students attended classes. Sir was teaching us a topic and at the end, he asked us for our doubts. All of us were sitting in a disinterested manner, almost as if forced to attend the lectures. This was when sir told us that he had come back to the university at 4 in the morning, straight from Jabalpur. 

He had come back specifically for our class. When we asked him why he took so much pain for a single class, he replied that it was duty to teach his students. He said he would have felt restless with the thought that maybe some student had a query that day which couldn’t be solved because of his absence.

He told us that for him duty was above everything else. He wanted all his students to work hard and stay motivated. That day changed my perspective on life, and made me realize the importance of hardwork.

This is why, for me, sir is one of the best teachers whom I studied under at Thapar University.

Here is a list of some of the best professors at Thapar University in various departments. This information is based on my personal experience and my discussions with friends-

• Dr. Satish Kumar Sharma- Sir is a senior professor in the School of Mathematics. I studied M1 and M2 under him. He teaches really well.

• Dr. Isha Dhiman- Ma’am is a professor in the School of Mathematics. She taught us Numerical Analysis.

• Dr. Maneek Kumar- Sir is a professor in the Civil department. 

• Dr. Maninder Singh- Sir is a professor in the Computer Science and Engineering Department.

• Dr. Sanjay Sharma- Sir is a professor in the ECE department.

These are some of the professors at Thapar University who teach really well.
