Thapar University

There's no single “best” option among LPU, Galgotias, GLA, Thapar, and Sharda, as it depends on your budget, preferred specialisation, location, and career goals. It's better to compare the course structure, faculty, internships, placements, and overall fees before deciding.

LPU can be a practical option if you're looking for a wide range of MBA specialisations, a large campus, and opportunities for practical learning and industry exposure. Still, I'd suggest checking the latest placement data and ROI and comparing it with the other universities before making your final choice.

Thapar University does offer courses in Science and related areas, but the B.Sc. options and specialisations may change depending on the academic year. So, if you have a particular specialisation in mind, it's better to check the latest list of programmes before applying.

If you're comparing it with other universities, LPU has several options in different fields as well. For students who are more interested in creative work, B.Sc. (Fashion Design) can be considered, with subjects related to fashion, textiles, design, illustration and practical learning.

I'd choose CSE at LPU over Mechanical at Thapar if your priority is better career flexibility and placement opportunities. CSE gives you access to software, AI, data, cybersecurity and IT roles, while Mechanical is more specialized toward core engineering. Unless you specifically have a strong interest in mechanical engineering, LPU CSE would be the more practical choice. 

For BTech CSE, I would choose Thapar over LPU if you get CSE at Thapar and can comfortably afford it. Thapar has the stronger engineering reputation and generally better peer group and placement outcomes.

For scholarships, LPU is clearly more generous and easier to access: its 2026 CSE scholarships can reach 50% through LPUNEST, with additional scholarship routes based on academic performance. Thapar's major 2026 merit scholarships are more competitive and primarily tied to JEE Main rank, with tuition-fee waivers for selected students.

So: Thapar = better CSE choice. LPU = better scholarship opportunities.

Honestly, for BTech CSE I'd pick Thapar. It has a stronger engineering reputation, better placement opportunities and a stronger peer group overall. Chitkara is decent too, but if you have both options, I'd go with Thapar.

Yes, Thapar is a good option for BTech. Academics, placements, faculty and campus exposure are all pretty good. Especially for CSE, COE, ECE and ENC, there are good opportunities. If you're getting your preferred branch, I'd definitely consider it.
