One of my friends is currently pursuing his Electronics and Computer Engineering at Thapar Institute of engineering technology, Patiala. Here are some snippets of his experience on campus so far. 

• The institute has a 300-acre campus of lush green. So, surviving here won't be an issue.
• The institute organizes great workshops such as Hydraulics, Web Development, and Circuit Building, etc. He said after one and a half months, he realized that the institute offers lots of opportunities, and grabbing them is what you have to do.
• The hostels are well-maintained and the food is good enough.
• Hostels have good Wi-Fi speeds ranging from 1.2 - 3 Mbps sometimes.
• Professors are quite cooperative and they employ new techniques for teaching.
• There is a well-designed playing area. There is a badminton court, tennis court, synthetic track, etc. 
• Juju’s Cafe, Pizza Nation, are some of the popular hangout places on campus.
• The rules and regulations are strict when it comes to discipline. Students are not allowed to leave campus after 7 pm.

Hope this gives you an idea of what to expect at Thapar University.
