Placements: In my course, civil engineering, especially, there is a lack of skills among people, so there are very few placements in the civil branch. But the students of the civil branch are getting placements in tech/software fields. Recently, a civil engineering student got placed at Zomato in software.
Placements: Currently, 60% of students from the Computer branch are placed, and the placement has improved from last year. For internships, it is even better, so possibly from next year, it will get better. The highest package is currently from Google, and the lowest is from Infosys. The average package is around 20 lakhs. Internships for our batch were not good; only some people got placed at MNCs, and most of them were girls who got off-campus placements. Most roles offered were for software developers.
Placements: Although placements are usually good, many companies only occasionally offer 4 LPA due to the non-profit nature of the industry. Only 64% of the students placed here last year received a placement, and the highest package goes up to 40 LPA, which is not good, and the lowest is only 3.2 LPA. Annually, fewer companies arrive and provide fewer services.
Placements: In civil engineering course, around 23% of students got placed in public domain. In civil engineering course, the highest salary package offered is 40 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 6 LPA. Around 50% of students got internships. Many students get role as HR of a company.
Placements: My course is the Internet of Things (IoT), which comes under the ECE department. It might be very trendy and demanding in the future, but in recent days, due to the recession, students are facing many problems in getting placed. Very few students are placed, and high-paying companies are not visiting for campus placement. So, average placements are about 10-12 LPA only. The highest is 60 LPA something. It won't be the same in the future, although students are working hard to overcome this recess...
Placements: About 49% students were placed this year in mechanical engineering department of NIT kurukshetra. The highest package was 61 LPA, the lowest was 4 LPA, and the average package was 8 LPA this year. Infosys, TCS, Wipro, Siemens, and LnT are the top recruiting companies. These companies also provide stipends for internships. top roles offered were software development, machines design, electrical engineering, etc.
