The Placement of students at IET DAVV has never been a problem. The recent placement statistics for IET DAVV are as follows.
The highest package of 20 lakh was offered by Vmware, nuclei. Two more companies gave almost the same packages to 10-12 students. Companies like ZS, quantify and 7-8 more companies offered packages around 9-10 lakhs.
Average packages in the year 2020 for different courses are as follows.

At IET DAVV if you opt for on-campus placement, you are likely to get placed.
Mtech in RF and Microwave at IIT Kanpur has excellent placement scenarios with a placement percentage of 100%.
The Electrical Engineering department of IIT Kanpur is second only to the CS department and offers the best job opportunities. Irrespective of your branch, you are likely to get placed in a good company with a decent package.
Talking specifically about RF, students receive offers from highly reputed semiconductor companies in India like Intel, Qualcomm, STMicroelectronics, Samsung Semiconductor, etc. Additionally, there are many other recruiters like General Electric, Siemens, Boeing
Securing a core job, however, might be a bit difficult but not completely impossible. Some companies that offer core jobs are Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, Siemens, etc. Usually, the average CTC is in the range of INR 13–15 LPA. The majority of the batch received packages above 15 LPA.
Unlike the general opinion that VLSI is the best branch, I would conclude that RF is one of the best branches provided that you have a genuine interest in it.
Two of my close friends are studying at NIT Surathkal and MNNIT Allahabad respectively and often I hear them comparing their colleges based on some aspects.
Ultimately, the choice is yours!
This answer is based on the assumption that you are enquiring about the highest package for Civil Engineering at IIT Kanpur. Well, the highest I have heard is around INR 36 LPA. However, branch-wise placement data is not available for IIT Kanpur so the recent highest package might have changed.
In reality, landing a 36 Lakhs package is next to impossible in Civil Engineering and the person who got it probably got placed in a banking or investment firm. His exceptional achievement stems from his top-notch skills in probability and statistics.
The placements for Civil Engineering are mostly based on work experience and initially, you will be offered minimal pay.
Don’t get disheartened if you are planning to get employed in the civil engineering field, the initial payment is little, but this field is all about experience. After a couple of years, you will be earning more than your CS batchmates. Another option is to get into the public sector which provides good pay too.
One of my friends graduated from NIT Trichy. According to him, in this age of Information Technology and software boom, very few people are there who stick to their branches.
If you go for jobs in coding and software as most of the students do then you can be offered higher salary packages. This might be the reason why most students opt for jobs in the corporate sector.
The placement scenario of only a few IITs is considered good. Some of these include IIT Delhi, Kanpur, Bombay, Kgp, and Madras.
Although these IITs witness intense competition in placements, the fact that some tech giants only visit these IITs makes their placement scenario better than other IITs. A few of the top companies include Google, Apple, Uber, Facebook, etc. Many consulting giants such as Mckinsey, BCG, Bain, AT Kearney, etc. offer roles in finance, software, banking, investment banking, etc. These roles are offered in plenty around 30-60 at these IITs. Other companies do visit other IITs and the salary offered is also similar.
Many students drop out of placements to start working on their own startup. Apart from this the lowest package at IIM Ahmedabad was INR 11 LPA in the year 2021 and INR 6.75 LPA in 2016. This does not include incentives and variable parts of the CTC.
I have a few friends from Thapar University and from them, I heard many stories regarding placements. Here is one of such stories.
One of their seniors faced some initial problems in the placement phase. He was the best in networking and web development in the entire college. He had such skills and knowledge regarding the course that he was considered better than even some of the faculties. He was the only student in the entire college to make it to (GSOC) Google Summer of Code. In spite of all this, he had a CGPA of 6 because he didn’t just study for scoring so he was very carefree with the subjects he was not interested in, which brought down his CGPA.
Initially, he was left out to even participate in many placement interviews, due to his CGPA. Almost 75 percent of the CSE batch was placed with some companies in some cases they also got multiple offers but he was left out.
In the next phase of placements, there was a company offering consulting roles. He was not shortlisted for the interview because of his CGPA. He was sleeping in his room when he got a call from the PR saying he has an interview in 15 minutes.
What happened was, the company officials called PR and told them they have a technical post and they were looking for the best candidate and his name was coined. He wowed the officials in his interview and got the job offer. But he didn’t take it since the job profile didn’t interest him.
Following that he got 3 more internship offers and 3 more placement offers because he was specially mentioned by that one company.
The placements for Jaipuria Institute of Management Lucknow are held along with the other three campuses.
Jaipuria Institute of Management has a one-of-a-kind ‘Uncampus’ which combines all four campuses- Lucknow, Noida, Jaipur, and Indore. This ensures common admissions, centralized placements, intra-campus faculty exchange, a uniform curriculum, and a vast and diverse alumni network.
During the 2023 placements at Jaipuria Institute of Management, 1000 offers were made to a batch of 930 students. Over 300+ recruiters, including 110+ new recruiters, participated in the placements.
The average package for the top 10% of students stood at INR 12.34 LPA. The average package for the top 20% of students stood at INR 11.08 LPA.
The sector-wise offers for Jaipuria Institute of Management are as given below-
Thus, the combined placement 2023 figures for Jaipuria Institute of Management Noida, and the other campuses, were quite promising.
Till 2017, VNIT recorded good placements in its Mining department. Coal India was the major recruiter, and it offered good packages.
In the past few years, fewer core companies visit the campus. Vedanta, LnT, etc. visit and recruit few students each year. PSUs like SAIL, NTPC and NLC recruit GATE qualified students. However, they only have a few vacancies. Getting a core job isn’t guaranteed.
You can try for non-core companies (IT, Management, Trading ,etc). With some experience and proper skillset, you can increase your chances of getting selected. For this experience and skill set, you’ll need internships. But such companies are open for multiple branches, so you’ll have to put in more effort and prove your excellence.
This is the placement scenario for B.Tech Mining at VNIT Nagpur.
