Good college with good placements.

Placements: The placement for our batch was average since most of the students want to pursue further studies like MBA. Around 30 to 40 percent of the students got jobs in finance and insurance sectors. The highest CTC was 1.5 Lacs per annum and the lowest was 1.2 Lacs per annum. Companies like ICICI, HDFC, LIC visited the campus. Hardly twenty students went for an internship. There was no stipend offered. The students have their own placement cell which is moderately effective.

A wonderful college with good placements.

Placements: Our batch had excellent placements with almost 70% of the students getting placed. Rest of the students have opted for further studies. The average package offered was 1 LPA, and the highest salary package offered was 2 LPA. Most of the students were offered roles in finance, banking, insurance and consulting sectors. Almost all the students except a few got internships from the college. The internship was part-time, and stipends were offered. The placement cell of our college was effective.

It is satisfactory, good placements and infrastructure. Creative pursuits are not encouraged though.

Placements: The average package offered ranges between 7.50 LPA to 9 LPA. Almost 93% of students get placed during the placement drives. Salary packages offered are between 5 LPA to 21 LPA including variables. Placements are taken care by the placement cell. Faculty coordinators and head student coordinators work tirelessly to make placements with better packages possible for most of the students. But the coordinators may exercise power on other students. Internship stipends are minimal on average, but top ...

It feels like another world after entering the college.

Placements: 100% placements are not provided to M.Tech students, but they are excellent for B.Tech students, as many MNCs and mass recruiting companies visit the college annually. The highest package offered is Rs. 15 LPA, and the lowest package Rs. 3 LPA. Companies like Oracle, TCS, L&T, Godrej, Atos, etc., visit the college frequently. 80% of the students got internships, and mostly M.Tech students got opportunities during their second year.

Those were the rewarding 4 years of my life. Glad to have been a part of this institution.

Placements: The college website would provide more detailed answers and accurate numbers about the placements. As far as I can recall, placements during my last year were good. According to the college website, 126 students (both UG+PG) had placement offers. The senior batch had 126 offers too. Roles offered were mostly in IT companies like Accenture, TCS, Infosys, L&T, Diebold, etc. The highest salary package offered was 7 LPA, the average was 3.54 LPA, and the lowest was 1.80 LPA.

A good choice for your graduation.

Placements: Placements in our college were decent, ample in IT companies and less in core fields. A few non-technical companies also visited the college. The placement cell was helpful, and certain training sessions were organised. Moreover, the alumni help us a great deal. Overall, the placements were very satisfactory.

Good infrastructure and faculty, amazing cultural activities.

Placements: There are not much placement opportunities. 2-3 companies come for bulk hiring but the profiles were not exactly related to the course. However the companies are good MNCs so it's a good start for anyone who wants to give a try in that particular field. Companies I can remember that placed good number of students were ICICI Prudential and Wipro. Package can be somewhere around 1.5-2 lacs pa.

However, the scenario in Electronics and Mechanical was okay with only 50% and 35% students getting placed respectively.

The infrastructure is good, and the college provides placements.

Placements: The placements provided by our college are good, and the best companies visit the college to conduct placements. Students get good opportunities to give their best and get selected in the company. Few companies that visit the college are of no use, but a few are the best and well-reputed.

One will enjoy their campus life, but don't go only for placements.

Placements: Placement opportunities were not that good because there would be a mix of BMS, B.Com, BAF, etc. The job profiles offered are also not that attractive. The main reason behind this is most of the students go for masters degree or professional courses like CA and CFA.

The students gain good learning experience with ample opportunities.

Placements: Every year, core placement has been a difficult task, and students opt for non-core jobs in such case, and the same was the scenario in our batch. However, you would get a job, but getting the core profile is difficult. Some good companies like Godrej, Mahindra, ThyssenKrupp, Mukund, and Bluestar visit the campus and hire the students.
