Taking admission in GD should know all the information that is given in this article.

Placements: Pursuing a course at GD Goenka is a good option. One should have more than 60% in the 12th board examination. As I am a student of the Corona period, no company has come to the university but now they are providing good organisations for placements for students. If we talk about internship opportunities, the university provides good options for internships from Fortis Max, Park Hospital GGN, etc.

It is like an average college for B.Tech or any other course. It is just like other private colleges

Placements: I am not in placements as I am still in 2nd year, but as I have heard, placements for B.Tech CSE are almost 80%. The average package is around 3-4 Lacs, and the maximum package is 20 Lacs as of last year. Companies like Tech Mahindra, Decathlon, FSL, Case Fire, Idea, etc., come for placements.

Overall good college for the degree.

Placements: So the placement of my college is below average as it was not beneficial and the companies that visited were mostly of sales profile. So for me, the placements are not so good and the average package was below 4 Lacs, and most of it was for the B.Tech Computer Science department.
