How are the IIT Madras online degree placements?

My sister opted for an online BS in Data Science and Applications from IIT Madras in 2023. According to her experience, the placements for online degrees by IITM are decent, but not top notch. The placement opportunities provided by the online degree team are not up to par with the prestige of IIT Madras. 

The placement opportunities for online students are equal to those offered by Tier 3 engineering colleges. It becomes clear during placements that recruiters don't treat an online degree the same as a regular degree from IIT Madras. 

But the curriculum and faculty for the online courses are both top notch. The lectures are delivered by IITM teachers and faculty members from other well-known IITs. 

So if you take the lectures with utmost sincerity, the online degree will prepare you well enough to get an off campus job at a good company. As far as college placements are concerned, you will get a decent job opportunity.
