Good placements in 2023 and okay for studies only.

Placements: About 30 percent of the students have been placed so far. At the start of the year, top companies came to select students, and we had a good experience with it. The package is 8 LPA. Some got 7 LPA and 5 LPA also and till date our CSE placement is low.

About Velammal Engineering College, Surapet, Chennai.

Placements: Lack of coordination led to a lot of trouble during the time of recruitment. Students from the master of business administration secured only 63% of offers. The companies arriving were shown their lesser interest in hiring candidates with an MBA. Cognizant was one of the top recruiters of our college.
