NIT Srinagar Placement 2022: Highest Package: INR 22 LPA & Average Package: INR 13 LPA

As an alumnus of B.Tech CSE at NIT Srinagar, I will try providing information regarding the placement scenario of my branch.

A CSE student can be placed on campus and off campus. Around 15-20, visiting companies allow CSE students to sit for their placement drive. No CSE batch faces a shortage of placement opportunities, as per my limited knowledge. You can also opt for off-campus placements. 

With good wifi facilities in hostels, you should opt for some relevant courses on edX, Coursera, or other such platforms. This will really help you grab good opportunities. 

As an NIT student, you’ll get much more placement opportunities than most other engineering students. But struggle is everywhere. In order to grab good jobs, you’ll have to work on your skill set.

Yes, NIT Srinagar would be a good choice for pursuing a degree in ECE. NIT Srinagar is known for its excellent engineering programs, including in the field of Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE).

The placement scenario at NIT Srinagar has been improving over the years. The highest placement percentage recorded was 90%! Last year, the average salary package offered to students was between 15 LPA and 20 LPA, with the highest salary package being 45 LPA. Some of the top recruiting companies at NIT Srinagar include Wipro, Tesla, Hyundai, Tata, and many others.

It's important to keep in mind that the placement statistics at NIT Srinagar can be influenced by various external factors, such as the situation in Kashmir, the faculty, and the infrastructure. These factors can cause fluctuations in the figures from year to year, making it difficult to predict future outcomes with certainty. But as of now, NIT Srinagar is undoubtedly a good option for pursuing electronics and communication engineering.

To be honest, the placement for the same isn’t very appreciable in NIT Srinagar for metallurgical & materials engineering. However, there are students in the metallurgical department who are excelling, and NIT Srinagar is among the greatest universities in India.

So compared to this college IIT provides an offer up to 14LPA as an average package. These top-tier institutes offer 100 % placement opportunities whereas NIT Srinagar provides 65%–70% placement opportunities to their students.

To be frank, the placement scenario in NIT Srinagar for the Chemical Engineering branch is below average. Most of the students have to struggle for placements in the IT sector as only a few companies allow students of all branches to sit for placements. The ones that don’t get placed have no option but to steer their goal toward GATE to pursue higher studies and make it to PSUs.

I asked a friend of mine for the exact placement scenario since the institute does not release official data. As per him, the placements are average as compared to non-core branches. Around 60-70% of students got placed in this course with the highest salary package offered around 18.5 LPA and the lowest salary package offered around 6 LPA. Some top recruiting companies are Vedantu, EIL, GAIL, ONGC, etc. 

Overall, the chemical engineering branch will offer better opportunities only if you go for higher education. 

I have to admit that the placement opportunities are not very satisfying and the packages offered are quite average.

Previous placement statistics reveal that the scope for chemical engineering at NIT Srinagar is not very satisfying. Last year 53 students enrolled for placements in the Department of Chemical Engineering, and 15 of them, or 28% of the total, were placed in key businesses including IOCL, GAIL, BARC, SAIL, etc. The average compensation package is 8 LPA, and the highest salary package is 10 LPA. Chemical engineering students were hired by analytics firms like ZS Associates, Vedanta, and others for an average pay package of 9 LPA.

Finding a job after completing a B.Tech degree in Chemical Engineering at NIT Srinagar can be a daunting task for many students. According to statistics, only a small percentage of students, around 9-10%, can secure a job right away. However, for those who do not find immediate employment, there is a viable option to consider. Preparing for and passing the GATE examination can open doors to better job opportunities and pave the way for future career growth.
