Overall, the placement scenario at IIT Hyderabad is great but the high statistics might be misleading. The small batch size makes the figures inflated and the average package is recorded as high as INR 20.07 LPA.

However, IIT Hyderabad has developed at a fast rate and is considered the best among the new IITs. The table below shows the placement statistics for this year.

Highest Package	INR 63.78 LPA
Average Package	INR 20.07 LPA
Placement Percentage	74.90%
Number of Recruiters	335
Number of Students Placed	570
Number of Offers	621
Number of International Offers	55
Number of PPOs	104

We can infer from the above table that IIT Hyderabad has indeed performed higher than expectations but that does not mean it should be preferred to IIT BHU and IIT Guwahati. IIT Hyderabad should be considered over IIT BHU and IIT Guwahati only for similar branches because it cannot match the exposure and opportunities of old IITs.

According to my fellow batchmates, out of all the IITs, IIT Hyderabad is one of the fastest-growing IIT. The location of this IIT also adds an advantage as it is an IT hub. Studying here I have realised that the college offers humongous placement opportunities to all its students.

A variety of courses are offered like Fractal Academics, fractional credit courses like Photojournalism, Film Making, etc. interdisciplinary branches such as Engineering Science and various others.

The highest number of placements were seen in CSE and Mechanical Engineering.
Among the top paying companies were Goldman Sachs, Jaguar Land Rover, and Microsoft.

It is important to bear in mind that not all students sit for placements. A lot of them opt for higher education in India or abroad instead of sitting for placement.

In 2013, the college saw only 52 recruiters and the number has increased to almost 100 for the past year. It shows a lot of improvement over a very short time span.

If you want to pursue higher education, IIT Hyderabad has strong collaborations with various institutes of Japan that conduct student exchange programs.

Therefore, it all depends on you. Even if you do not get placed through campus placements, you can always opt for off-campus placements or higher education as well by the time you get your degree.
