Thapar University in all aspects is a lot better than JIIT. But I am not quite aware of the EIC branch. You can interact with ex-students of the institute online, to get a better idea about the course. If you think it will be a better choice, go for it.

• According to placements, Thapar is much better than JIIT Noida.
• Most of the companies that participate in Thapar’s placement program are well reputed like Microsoft, Infosys, and many more.
• Thapar provides a better industrial exposure to their students.
• After graduating from Thapar you can opt for both government and private sectors.

Thapar University will be a much better choice than JIIT, as it is popular among students and professionals as well. Any branch at Thapar will prove to be more valuable than CSE at JIIT Noida.
