Placement Cell The Placement Cell is the nodal point of contact for companies to interact with the Institute. It comprises of members of faculty and students, ably assisted by staff, engaged in the placement of graduating students and the internship of B.Tech 2nd and 3rd year students. Its effort is to provide a platform to facilitate interaction between students and companies so that both can find the best match according to their aspirations and requirements. The Institute focuses on latest technologies for effective delivery. The curriculum emphasizes on a cross-disciplinary approach with a strong inclination towards hands-on training and project work with an objective of synthesizing engineering with basic sciences, humanities and management for fulfilling the need of the better trained man power for the Indian and global industries & R&D organization. The Cell also put enough emphasis on the all round personality development of students. The Office is well equipped and is designed to smoothly handle and support the placement process at all stages. Infrastructure for pre-placement talks, written tests, group discussions and personal interviews are available. Summer internship, though not a part of the curriculum, is strongly encouraged. Students are very much welcomed by high profile companies for internship, including Japanese companies. With the full support of Japanese Government, industries and universities, every year selected students visit Japan during summer and winter breaks for internship and industrial tour. In the summers of 2008-09, 12 students have gone for internship to Japanese industries. The Cell is in regular touch with companies for the placement of graduating batch. Placement is going on through campus visit and telephonic interactions with the students. Selection Process: The Institute, though, starts interacting with companies at the beginning of odd semester but it begins the formal placement process at the end of odd semester (December). The Institute approaches companies with necessary information and formal invitation. The company provides necessary data/profile. Essential details of students are provided to the company. A mutually convenient date and time is fixed for Pre-Placement Talk (PPT) & Written Test/ Final Interview. The Institute has well furnished Conference Room. The PPT is arranged in the Conference Room/Lecture Hall Complex, as the case may be, depending on the students’ strength. The visit of the company is announced to the students along with profile of the company. Interested and eligible students register with the Placement Cell. If needed, the Cell facilitates telephonic interaction between students’ and company. Normally, the company re-confirms the visit prior to the mutually allocated visit date. The Institute provides with the accommodation in its Visitor’s Hostel (VH) and other local hospitality. The VH is equipped with connectivity/ conferencing facilities. The selection list is announced as soon as company finalizes the same. The Cell is responsible for the negotiations with the companies, sending acceptance of students to the companies, etc. |
