Placement Cell

A vibrant and dedicated Placement Cell is an integral part of any institution engaged in higher education. It stands as a bridge between the Institution and the Prospective employer – The Industry. While it is quite obvious that the Employers expect graduates to possess technical competencies in their subject of study they also seriously evaluate graduates in terms of discipline and require them to demonstrate a range of broader skills and attributes that include excellent team-work, effective communication, leadership, critical thinking, problem solving and managerial abilities.

Employability is not just about getting a job. It is about learning and the emphasis is less on 'employ' and more on 'ability.

We are at an interesting point of transition where it is not just about degrees, top league colleges or about marks and grades. It is about something else and that something else is the right attitude. It is not just about being the right fit for the company, but it is also about being the right fit as a global citizen.
