IET Lucknow Placements 2022: Median Package: INR 5.70 LPA & 187 Students Placed

One of my friends studied at IET Lucknow. Let me share some information I gathered from him, which might answer your question.

• The placement cell of IET Lucknow has been successful in pairing up the students who are talented with the right companies.
• This has led to a rise in the number of student selections.
• The faculty of IET Lucknow enjoys an enviable reputation.
• The alumni are also involved in the institute’s educational and research activities.
• The placement office and the representatives of the students are in charge of making contact with the companies, scheduling, and executing the activities.
• The placement team tries its best to bridge the gap between the expectations of the recruiters and the aspirations of the students.
• The team of student representatives includes the placement managers who are in charge of the coordination of the activities.

Here is an overview of the college

The placement office also supervises the company coordinators who are in charge of executing coordination with the organizations that recruit. Also, the department placement coordinators channel the preparedness of the students and initiatives for the enhancement of employability.

Some of my friends are from IET Lucknow. According to them, the placements of the CSE and IT branches are really good. Almost all the students get placed. The placement percentage shall be around 80-90% in both CSE and IT departments.

The salary packages offered to the students may vary from company to company. Or a student’s overall performance could also determine the job role and the salary package offered.

Generally, out of 60 students in a batch, 7 to 8 students are placed with a package of more than INR 5-6 LPA.

Thus it is not that tough to get a salary package of above 6 LPA. If your overall academic performance is good throughout your college life, securing a salary package of above 6 LPA will not be a problem. Also, remember that these could vary.

I have a friend studying at IET Lucknow from the Civil branch. I will not be able to tell you about HBTI but I can guide you in the case of IET.

• The mechanical branch of IET is the best in the entire college in terms of studies.
• The faculty of the mechanical department is the best and you would not regret pursuing B. Tech in mechanical engineering from IET Lucknow. The faculty teaches better than what the students are taught in coachings (as per mechanical students).
• But as far as placement is considered, it is almost nil. The only companies that visit are from the IT sector. Even if a core company visits (rare chance), just a few students get placed. So, I would recommend you not to join IET if your parameters are good placements.
• Considering the college tag, HBTI is a renowned college but IET is also not unfamiliar. IET is well known among IIT professors.

The following table shows the placement statistics of both institutions:

Being from IET is also not bad, though not comparable to being from Harcourt.

JSS Noida will be a better option for you. The location factor is also very important. After completing course, you can easily get a job in any of the IT in Noida. The off-campus chances of getting placed are also high. You will also get good industrial exposure in the JSS Noida college. The college is very strict in attendance. The company has got a lot of placement opportunities. The labs and equipment of the college are also well equipped.

IET Lucknow being a government college is good for core branches only. The CS and IT branch of the college is not that good. If you are planning for GATE and other competitive exams. you might get ample time for that because there is no such attendance system. 

Placements in IET Lucknow does not depend upon the branch. Though a majority of students are placed in many prestigious companies through campus placement from the branches like CSE, IT, and ECE. 

There are high chances of students getting placements from various other core branches. Also, some students score well in GATE and get placement in PSUs.

As per the recent placement given to the students, the following inference can be made:

Despite of so many offers for many-core branches, it depends upon how you are grabbing those opportunities. If you are pursuing engineering from IET Lucknow, always go for your holistic development in all the fields rather than focusing just on your academics. This can help you immensely to get placed in decent companies.

Students who join IET Lucknow tend to have higher ranks in JEE (Mains) than JIIT Noida. But JIIT Noida is mostly preferred by students, here’s why:

Location

• Due to its location, JIIT Noida is mostly preferred. Being closer to Delhi, it has access to nearby corporate houses and IT firms.
• Students get to attend seminars and industry visits quite often.

Quality of Education

• The faculty is much better at JIIT Noida. Being a private institution, it provides personality development and other exposures.
• Students tend to follow a routine and are disciplined.

Placements

• JIIT Noida is better than IET Lucknow in placements for sure.
• The CSE department is the best among others.
• The highest and the second-highest salary offered at JIIT Noida to the batch of 2016-20 are INR 43.17 LPA by Adobe and INR 34 LPA by DE Shaw.
• CSE is also the best branch at IET Lucknow.
• Students get placement offers from Microsoft with a salary of INR 37 LPA. However, on average it is decent.
• Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) is a regular recruiter at IET Lucknow for ECE students.

Being a government-run college, IET has far fewer restrictions than JIIT Noida which appeals to many students. But it lacks in personality development and other exposures which you will get at JIIT Noida.

Now that you have known about both the colleges, I think you can clearly understand yourself and make a choice according to what you need.

The ECE department at IET Lucknow is not very impressive for pursuing higher education. 

• Sessions are scheduled quite casually and are very rare. 
• The placement it offers is similar to that of the other institutes which are affiliated with AKTU. 
• Mass recruiters like TCS are among the only few good options available for candidates. 
• IET is a Government Institute and hence the fee charged from candidates is lesser than that of Private institutions. 
• The institute is quite popular among the student communities in the state of UP.

You can check out the details of the placement of the institute in the table down below:

I would suggest that you go for ECE at IET and then start preparing for competitive examinations and opt for GATE or CAT. For more details about the institute, do navigate through the official website of the college. 

Both IET Lucknow and Thapar University are renowned colleges. Just as in every college they both have their strengths and weaknesses. As I got to know some people from these colleges while researching, I might be able to help you with your question.

• The placement opportunities provided to students at Thapar are good, whereas at IET it is moderate. Visiting companies at Thapar for recruitment are extremely esteemed and reputed.
• Both of these universities are known for their highly experienced and competitive faculty. 
• The campus life is more or less similar in both colleges. 
• The seniors make the campus life livelier and more energetic with their enthusiasm and passion.
• If you want to prepare for GATE or CAT exams, IET will be a good choice.
• Thapar’s infrastructure and facilities are much better than IET.
• Placements of Civil and Mechanical branches are not good at IET. But CS and IT departments have comparatively better placements.

You might lose interest while studying at IET as it is not as lavish as other private colleges or even like Thapar. But if you work hard enough you can reach greater heights, no matter which college you graduate from.

IET Lucknow is one of the famous colleges in Uttar Pradesh. Although being a Tier-3 college, it is preferred by students, as it is fully managed by the Government. One of my friends studied here and these are some of the facts I gathered from her about the college.

• Most of the degree holders end up becoming clerks in services-based companies. Their salary packages range from 3-4 LPA.
• There are various mass recruiting IT companies, mostly service-based companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, CTS, etc. which allow the students to sit in campus placements.
• Once the highest package of IET Lucknow was 30 LPA by Amazon and the average package was 7 LPA.
• Consulting seniors about placements will also help you a lot.
• There are no such major opportunities for core placements for the EI branch. 
• But if you want a job in IT services, companies or firms then there are plenty of on-campus as well as off-campus opportunities.

These were some of the basic points you should know about placements. Also last year some of the students were placed in MNCs like DE Shaw, Code Nation, Amazon, Byju's, etc. If you want to prepare for GATE/CAT/GRE, there is a wonderful environment at IET Lucknow. 

As one of my cousins studied at IET Lucknow, I might be able to answer your question. According to him, IET Lucknow does not have a good placement record. Very few students actually get placed from the on-campus placement. 

• CSE and IT only have the best reputation and demand among students.
• Hardly one or two students get job opportunities by Adobe and HSBC, they tend to offer better packages.
• There are very few placement opportunities for Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical departments.
• There are a few core companies visiting the campus during placements.
• The college is mainly dependent on mass recruiters like TCS, who offer packages around 3.5 LPA.
• If you are enthusiastic about CAT or GATE exams, then only choose this college.
• The GATE results of Electronics and Instrumentation and Chemical are great.

Overall, the institute has an average reputation. The companies will hire you because of your practical knowledge and skills. If you are not skilled enough, securing a job offer will be difficult.
