Placements: There is a placement and internship cell in IITR which helps the students to get placements. The internship ratio of IITR is not that good; only 1/3 of the students got internships, and from that, most of them are from the circuit branch. The internship ratio in the non-circuit branch is bad. But the placements are awesome in IITR. Most of the students who sit in placements get that.
Placements: Electrical engineering students get 87% of placements. The highest package offered was 54 LPA, the average package was 15-18 LPA, and the lowest was 8 LPA. For core Texas instruments, Tata Steel, and Jaguar, and also non-core domain PwC, tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon are the top recruiters.
Placements: Out of 174 students, nearly 100 get placed every year. This information was not provided to us. Companies such as Google Silicon Engineering, Jaguar, and PWC recruit from our batch. Around 60% of students are placed in companies like Google Silicon Engineering, Jaguar, PWC, Myntra, etc. The average salary package offered for an electrical engineering student is about 20 LPA.
Placements: As I know, 33 out of 30 students get placed in good companies. Others are following their passion and do not appear for placements. The highest salary package offered is 50 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 10 LPA. The average salary package offered is 18 LPA. From our course, we can become a financial assistant, marketing manager, advisory, and many more.
Placements: Most of the students who prepared well got placed. The average salary package offered is around 24 LPA. Recruiters are Texas, Tata Steel, etc. Overall placements are average, but the main key factor is Roorkee not being a metro city as compared to other IITs. They mostly are in metro cities.
Placements: The percentage of students placed is 69%. The highest package is 26 LPA, and the lowest package is 2.7 LPA for freshers. Companies such as Information Teach, IBM, Infosys, and more recruit from our course. The course offers internship opportunities.
