Placements: Nearly 100% of placements are available for CSE and IT. Placements seem to be low for in core branches this year. The top recruiting companies for this year were Direct (SDE). The lowest packages were offered by MNCs like Cognizant, TCS and Infosys, considering they are mass recruiters. The internships are poor. Very few students are selected on-campus.

Placements: Percentage of placements are good, and the average placements of this college are also excellent. According to NIRF, a ranking of 2018 is 21 which is above 17 IIT and all NIT except NIT Trichy and NIT Rourkela. The average package offered to CS department students is 9-10 LPA, which is very good. Also, 75% of students from mining got placed in 2017.

Placements: The placements of my department are decent and up to mark. This year placements are comparatively good than previous years. About 70-80% of the students got placed. Placements are improving every year as there is a new placement department has been set up.
