GIET University is very good for the environment. It is a very peaceful nature, enjoying it here.

Placements: I think in GIET University placement scenarios are very good. I think that everybody gets a good package and good placements. I'm not sure, but I think the highest package is of 25 LPA, the lowest package is of 4 LPA. Major companies that visit our campus are TCS, Tech Mahindra, High Radius, etc. The maximum number of students get good internships in many companies.

The college has good infrastructure and a good environment for coaching.

Placements: I am from the 2024-2028 batch, a Computer Science and Engineering student. Nearly 60-70% of students were placed this year. 22 LPA annual package is the highest in my mind. Accenture and many startup companies are coming for the recruiting. Computer Science students are getting the highest package.

Decent facilities, limited support, and room for improvement in practical learning.

Placements: Over 80% of students in the 1st year belong to the CSE branch. So far, the highest package offered in our college has been 26.5 lakhs. TATA is one of the top recruiting companies. Around 30% to 35% of students do paid internships, mostly arranged through YHILLS by seniors, as seniors receive a commission for placing juniors. The top role offered is Data Science.
