Placements: Average placements recently are not nice. The top recruiters are Apple, Google, Infosys, etc. 60–70% of students were placed. The total number of students placed this year was 1770; further, 70% of students were placed and the average package was around 5 lakh to 11.09 lakh.
Placements: Almost every student of my batch was placed with the highest package of 19 LPA in non-core at JP Morgan, and in core it was 18 LPA at Trident. The lowest package was 6 LPA, which was offered by L&T. My batch strength was 48, and 44 were placed. The rest didn't apply for placements.
Placements: This year 5 students from our college got placed in Microsoft, and the placement percentage is near about 85, which is a good number, but still many students, especially of the branches like mechanical or chemical and mechatronics, need to struggle more for placement, and I have no idea why.
Placements: I'm a second-year student of TIET pursuing my B.Tech in computer engineering. Placement for computer branches is decent; some companies offer good placements, but due to the large number of students in this branch, the CGPA cutoff is very high. Companies like JP Morgan are among the top recruiters. The average package is around 10 lakhs for this course; the highest can vary year upon year. The lowest package is 3-4 lakhs.
