There is no internship facility on campus and placements are also with very low packages and the average package is Rs 4 to 5 lacs per annum.

Our college placement is around 50 to 60 percent. The average package goes up to INR 7 LPA, and the highest package goes up to 22 LPA, which is offered by Goldman Sachs. The roles offered include those of system engineers and data scientists.

If you enjoy finance but are concerned about working hours, consider roles with better work-life balance, like financial analysis or consulting. Core chemical engineering might offer more structured hours. Choose course based on your passion and intrest.
