Sector & Role Trends
The placement outcomes demonstrated coverage across a diverse range of industries, including IT/ITES, BFSI, manufacturing, telecom, aviation, infrastructure, and research labs. While roles in data science, automation, embedded systems, and cloud computing proved particularly beneficial for technical branches, core engineering disciplines consistently offered stable career prospects in design and manufacturing sectors.
Why Placement Rates Vary by Branch
Several factors contribute to the variations in placement rates across different engineering branches:
- Branch-specific electives are crucial (e.g., IoT for ECE, cloud/devOps for CSE/IT)
- Strong internship portfolios with relevant companies
- Projects showcased in hackathons and labs
- Support from CRC via branch-focused training, resume prep, and mock interviews
Student Perspectives
Insights from students offer additional context. One CSE student on Shiksha noted average placements between ₹8–10 LPA and highest offers up to ₹62 LPA from Amazon and Microsoft. According to observations, non-CSE branches have steady offers across businesses but a lower placement volume.
Branch-Specific Tips
To maximize placement success, students are encouraged to adopt branch-specific strategies:
| Branch | Key Strategy |
|---|---|
| CSE/IT | Build strong tech profiles with internships, GitHub, hackathons |
| ECE | Focus on embedded systems, VLSI, practical electronics skills |
| Mech/Civil | Gain project experience, site visits, software like CAD |
| Chemical/Bio | Intern in labs, learn biotech software, attend workshops |
Additionally, regularly attending CRC-led sessions and networking with alumni in your discipline are vital for career guidance.
