ThaparConnect is the premier student academic platform for Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology (TIET), Patiala. It provides verified lecture notes, past year exam question papers (PYQs), course handbooks, an 8-semester CGPA planner, clash-free timetable generator, and interactive campus map for all B.E. and B.Tech engineering branches.

First-year engineering students at Thapar Institute are divided into Pool A and Pool B to balance laboratory and classroom resources. Pool A covers Calculus, Chemistry, Electrical & Electronic Engineering, and Programming in semester 1, while Pool B covers Linear Algebra, Physics, Manufacturing Process, and Engineering Drawing, swapping in semester 2.

Thapar Institute uses a 10-point letter grading system. Semester SGPA is calculated by multiplying each course credit by the earned grade points, summing them, and dividing by total semester credits: SGPA = Σ(Credits × Grade Points) / Σ(Credits). Cumulative CGPA is the credit-weighted average across all completed semesters.

Thapar awards 10 grade points for A+ (Outstanding) and A (Excellent), 9 points for A- (Very Good), 8 points for B (Good), 7 points for B- (Fair), 6 points for C (Average), 5 points for C- (Marginal), 2 points for E (Exposed/Re-appear), and 0 points for F (Fail).

Thapar students can access categorized mid-semester and end-semester past year examination question papers (PYQs) directly on ThaparConnect under the Study Resources section for Pool A, Pool B, and specialized second, third, and fourth-year engineering branches with official answer keys.

Use ThaparConnect's Target CGPA Estimator. Enter your current CGPA, number of completed semesters, and desired target (e.g. 9.00). The estimator mathematically sums your completed credits against remaining semester credit weights and computes the exact average SGPA required in future terms.
