Hiring has been predominant this year in the sectors of Information Technology (software), electronics, product development and high-end manufacturing, the BVRIT chief said.
Referring to the pandemic-induced challenges, Raju said: “This is quite a challenging time. There are a lot of dues to be received from the State government. We have a balanced focus on academic as well as finances. So, we honored all financial commitments to our faculty and others.”
BVRIT is now fully geared up for online classes, thanks to its digital drive which began even before the onslaught of Covid-19. “We were able to make a transition to online classes within a week after lockdown last year,” he said.
