The placement scenario for a diploma in Indian dairy (Dairy Technology) at SHUATS is very top-class and decent. According to my research, the college has a dedicated and independent placement cell that works very hard to ensure that students get placed in reputed organisations and top recruiter companies including Amul, Mother Dairy, and Parag Milk Foods. The placement rate is around 80 to 85% every year. The college also provides students with various internships and training programmes to give them practical experience which helps really in securing good placement in future. So overall placements are very good.
