One of my close friends is an alumnus of NT Trichy. He was able to provide some insights regarding the recruiting companies at NIT Trichy. 

According to him, the major recruiting companies that visit the IITs for placement drives also come to NIT Trichy for placements. That’s because NIT Trichy is one of the top ten colleges in India. Most of the companies that travel to India definitely come to NIT Trichy. So, there are definitely analytics companies visiting the campus placements of NIT Trichy. 

As per the details I have received from the alumni and students of the institute, the placement scenario for VLSI at NIT Trichy is considered to be much better than almost any other NIT in the country. Popular companies which have visited the campus of NIT Trichy for the recruitment of students enrolled in the VLSI department are SanDisk, Intel, Samsung, Qualcomm and Texas Instruments. 

The overall placement report for all the courses offered by NIT Trichy for the year 2020 can be availed through the table mentioned below:

Some of the top recruiters which recruited students in 2020 include Volvo, HCL, HDFC Bank, Godrej, HP, Ford and Yahoo. 

I do not have much information regarding the communication course at NIT Trichy but I am sure that after some research online, you would surely find out all the information that you are looking for. I hope that this answer must have provided you with a rough idea about the placement for the VLSI course at NIT Trichy.

One of my friends graduated from NIT Trichy and here’s what I got to know from him. According to him, only clearing the CPC test allows you to attend the campus placements.

Generally, 7 to 9 out of 10 students clear the test. But if one fails, he/she might lose the chance of attending the first 2 to 4 companies coming for placements. However, he/she may be allowed for the rest of the placements.

The test contains questions on both technical and non-technical topics and is generally easy. So make sure to prepare yourself and practice quantum and reasoning, as the students get stuck in this portion, majorly. There will be mock interviews and GD sessions, do take part in all these as these will brush up your skills.

The enrolled candidates are eligible to apply for summer internships in various fields at NIT Trichy, Calicut and Warangal. My cousin was selected for a summer internship last year. 

• The Interested candidates are required to contact the members of the faculty of the respective department via email or a phone call. 
• You should prepare a Resume (CV) for this purpose as in most cases students apply for internships with a resume.
• Make sure that you mail or call the professor who is working upon research in the area that interests you along with your resume. 
• If you are not enrolled in one of these courses at these institutions, then you are not eligible to apply for these internship programs. 

The faculty members at these institutions always are on the lookout to collaborate with the students for research activities and this is why the applications for internships are always appreciated. You can contact the concerned authority at your institution for more details or you can visit the official website of your college. 

My brother is a recent graduate of Instrumentation and Control Engineering at NIT Trichy, so let me share some facts about its overall performance. 

There are some pros and cons of the department which include:

Pros:

1. Vibration control research in ICE at Nit Trichy is really good.
2. Robotics, Control, and Electronics are also good for pursuing your graduate studies.
3. Career/ Job aspects across a variety of profiles are accessible for ICE graduates in campus placements.
4. Seniors help a lot with academics.
5. You will be trained to work under pressure.
6. Classrooms are neat and have a great environment. No uniform is required for entering the labs.

Cons:

1. There are only 11 faculties in the department out of which only two faculties teach properly. 
2. Labs are not up-to-the-mark. Most of the electronics components don’t work properly. The guidance is inadequate.
3. Assignments provide little help.
4. Due to continuous fests in the college, it might be difficult to concentrate on your studies.
5. Like every college, there should be 4 classes per week, but here in ICE, the faculty members tend to keep 6-8 classes per week with students attending the classes just for the attendance.
6. Subjects like PDD, Engineering Mechanics, and Analytical Instrumentation are taken for granted. 

If you are really interested in Instrumentation, only then you should join this department. Otherwise, join some other branch in NIT T so that you are able to learn something.

The reason why NITs unlike other institutions are having more placements in comparison to IIT’s is due to their quality of students has increased in the market. 

• NIT has rich Research and development equipment and these things allow the recruiters to hire more candidates. But it cannot be said that IIT students have fewer placements than NIT. 
• Another reason for good placements at NIT Trichy is because of its location as it is nearer to Bangalore and Chennai and companies find it convenient to visit here.
• It also depends upon the placement service of NIT. NIT Trichy also screens its candidates before sending them for campus placements. 
• Those sitting for their placements have to undergo placement exams in their third year. These exams are conducted by the final year students of your respective branch. Those who get 60% or above 60% in their placement exams are allowed to appear in the campus placements.

One of my friends suggested that computer science students get much better placements in comparison to other branches. The average package is INR 6lacs per annum and the highest package to date is 90 lacs per annum.

One of my juniors is a recent sophomore at the institute and can update you more thoroughly than usual. Here are some things he mentioned,

• Lately, he has interacted with 40% of the total faculty of NIT Trichy and has visited multiple classes. 
• He mentions that the production lab of the institute unfortunately does not use the entirety of its equipment.
• Despite the presence of several types of machinery, students are mandated to use hacksaws for steel cutting. 
• The current scenario is more futile than what could be anticipated. 
• Moreover, as per what my friend mentions, the lab assistants are not permitted to use the machines.
• However, the OJAS building, where most of the chemistry and physics labs are located, works comparably better. 
• He mentions that his experience was decent.

This is an overall justification of his experience as a whole. There is more to fill the space, yet just only needs exploration. Hope this helps answer your questions.
