Placements: This year, the intake was 120 students for CSE for the year 2023-2024. Placements were decent but not as good as previous years, mostly due to the recession. Yet, the average for CSE was 17 LPA, with the highest package being about 64 LPA in CSE. The good thing about the college is that this year, most branches hit the highest package above 40 LPA, except civil. Overall, the median for B.Tech is above 9 LPA.
