Yes, Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology does offer AI/ML-oriented options within its B.Tech programs, mainly through Computer Science–related branches where students can choose subjects and specialisations aligned with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
To be eligible, a student must have passed Class 12 with Physics and Mathematics, and admissions are generally done through JEE Main ranks followed by counselling.
The fee structure depends on the chosen branch and academic year, but it is usually in the range of ₹4–5 Lacs per year, apart from hostel and other charges.

Honestly, Robotics & AI at TIET is still pretty new, so placements aren't separate or “guaranteed” yet. Most students sit with CSE/COE/ENC during placements, and that's where the real action is.
Thapar's overall placement scene is solid though — big names like Microsoft, Adobe, Atlassian, DE Shaw, Zomato, Amazon, Flipkart do come in. If you're skilled, you won't be held back just because your branch says AI.

Honestly? Thapar University (LMTSM) at Dera Bassi for MBA is decent, especially if you want the Thapar brand, good faculty, and a structured campus life.
Placements are average to good (mainly marketing, HR, ops), not IIM-level, but solid for freshers. Worth it if you're aiming for learning + brand value, not just flashy packages.

Yeah, you've got a good chance 👍
With 92.55 percentile, TIET Patiala is definitely possible, especially for branches like ECE, Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, Chemical.
For CSE/COE, it might be a bit tight in the main rounds, but spot rounds / later counselling can work out.
So don't rule it out—apply and stay in till the end.

For BBA at Thapar (School of Management), the total fee is roughly ₹8–9 Lacs for the full programme (can vary a bit by year).
The average package so far is around ₹6–7 LPA, with top roles going higher as the school's placements mature.
It's a growing program, but Thapar's brand + campus exposure definitely helps.

Tuition only (without hostel, mess, etc.):
• Around ₹9.7 L to ₹20.8 L total for the full 4-year B.Tech, depending on your branch.
Full estimated cost with everything included (hostel, mess, development, other charges):
• Most sources show the total 4-year B.Tech cost ranging roughly from ₹2.8 M to ₹3.1 M (₹27.9 L-₹31.3 L). This includes tuition, hostel, mess and other fees.
So in short, tuition itself is about ₹10 L-₹21 L for the whole degree, and with hostel and mess costs added, the total goes closer to ₹28 L-₹31 L for four years.

1. Check Eligibility
For B.Tech/BE:
• You need Class 12 (10+2) with Physics, Mathematics and one of Chemistry/Biology/Biotech/Technical Vocational. General candidates usually need 60% or more (55% for SC/ST) in these subjects.
2. Take the Entrance Exam
• JEE Main is the primary route. Most seats (especially in top branches like CSE/ECE) are filled based on JEE Main rank.
• Some seats may also be filled based on Class 12 marks (board merit), but for many popular branches only JEE Main counts now.
3. Apply Online
• Go to the official TIET admissions portal and fill the application form for the year you're applying (UG 2026-27).
