Helpful for a happy college life.

Placements: The highly rated companies would prefer students to do an internship in their companies with a good stipend in positions like copy editing, content creation, and journalism. And they always aimed to place students in good companies and good roles, probably with a pay of above 4.67 LPA.

The postgraduate phase of mine.

Placements: Before the recruitment process, we have undergone a short mock programme conducted by the college to test our preparation for placements. The rate of placement success by this year would be 83% which was higher than before. Sasken Technologies and Civica are some of the common recruiters.

I’m sure, there is room for improvement.

Placements: Normally, M.Sc. Chemistry students are allowed to attend interviews with specific companies like pharmaceuticals, research, and chemical-based companies. The expected package ranges between 3.2 LPA and 3.9 LPA in our course. The best-in-class package is 9.4 LPA, offered by DuPont and Sabic.

Life of a BBA student in Amrita.

Placements: There were around 80% people placed recently, and the average package offered was 8.25 Lacs. Amrita invites many top recruiting companies like TCS, Infosys, and many banking sectors. These companies come directly to the college to select good aspirants. Lots of internships are provided in our university. Recently, we got an internship from Dabur. Top roles for BBA graduates were marketing executive and bank managers.
