Is it true that aeronautical engineering branch in Madras Institute of Technology had the least placements this year?

Yes, not only this year but for the last 5-6 years, MIT Aeronautical Engineering has been facing a lot of trouble in general.

• The primary reason is that it is one of the university departments of Anna University.
• In India, there are fewer core companies, and they mostly visit the IITs and NITs.
• Most of the students are attending IITs and NITs, which also decreases the number of students getting admission in MIT.
• Exams are used by public sector companies such as DRDO and ISRO to hire employees, and students had to apply after completing their undergraduate degrees.
• The curriculum isn't very good, in comparison to other streams.
• Some businesses require specialization, so they opt for P.G.
• There was no proper guidance from the staff. This is a major issue in the department.

Anna University's core placements are declining at a faster rate, and this is not limited to the Aeronautical department. If your goal is to get a job, then it is suggested that you do not go for Aeronautical Engineering at MIT.
