The National Institute of Industrial Engineering (NITIE) is a premier business school in India that offers various postgraduate programs in industrial engineering, manufacturing management, and other related fields. NITIE has a well-established placement cell that works closely with companies to ensure that students get good summer and final placements. However, a low grad score can impact a student's placement prospects to some extent. Here are some factors that can influence the impact of a low grad score on summer and final placements in NITIE:
In summary, a low grad score can impact summer and final placements in NITIE to some extent, but the extent of impact can vary depending on several factors such as industry demand, past academic performance, profile and skills, and overall performance. It is important for students with low grad scores to focus on building their skills, gaining practical experience, and showcasing their potential to improve their placement prospects. NITIE's placement cell can also provide guidance and support to students in this regard.
According to my friends studying at IET Lucknow,Electronics & Instrumentation (EI) Engineering is not a core engineering branch at all while Chemical Engineering is close to being called a core engineering branch.
Now coming to the placement scenario –
The placements happen in good numbers only for CSE and IT departments. But the placement packages are still less. So most of the students focus on clearing competitive exams such as GATE, IES, CAT, and others.
The harsh reality of IET Lucknow is that you may not even get a single interview experience if you are from the above-mentioned branches. The college is improving under the leadership of the new director but still, there is a long way to go.
If you talk of GATE performance, then EI and chemical engineering always perform much better than other branches.
The statistics are promising when it comes to the placements at IIT Bhubaneshwar. The average package offered has been on the rise for quite some time.
On the least package offered at IIT Bhubaneshwar, the yearly stats are as follows
According to the guidelines of the IIT's, a company can come to the campus for a recruitment process only if they offer a bare minimum of 5 lakhs as a package.
In every college, there’s a TnP (training and placement) cell that works to make sure that the students get a decent package. Sometimes IIT placement cell allows companies offering below 5 LPA for placement of students with low CGPA.

One of my friends is an alumnus of Amrita and he suggests the Amritapuri campus is better for CSE. If you have not already joined the institute, you should consider joining the Amritapuri campus.
In IIM Indore, having a poor academic profile does not necessarily mean that you cannot secure a job during summer placements. While academic performance is one aspect of a student's profile, there are other factors that are also taken into consideration by companies during the hiring process. These include work experience, live projects, certifications, and PORs (Positions of Responsibility).
To compensate for a poor academic profile, students can focus on building up these other aspects of their profile. For example, if a student has below 85% in their 10th, 12th, and B.Tech, they can still secure a job if they have significant work experience in a relevant field, as demonstrated by one of the examples provided. In this case, the student focused on live projects, PORs, and certifications, which helped them to secure shortlists from top companies such as Google and eventually convert a PPO (Pre-Placement Offer).
Another example is a student who has less than 65% in graduation but has excellent work experience in operations. This student will still be able to secure several opportunities during summer placements and ultimately even convert into a PPO.
However, students with few accomplishments may have more trouble finding summer and final positions. Students should excel in academics, work experience, projects, certificates, and PORs. This will boost their job and career prospects.
