The placement cell has been functioning in our campus since 1998. Placement Cell serves as a bridge between the academic world and the professional realm, facilitating the transition of students from the classroom to the workplace.
Placement Cells have evolved significantly over the years and moved beyond merely organizing campus interviews to offering comprehensive career development services. The integration of technology has streamlined the job search process, allowing students to access job listings and resources online.
Furthermore, Placement Cells now recognize the importance of holistic development. We focus on nurturing not only technical skills but also interpersonal skills, emotional intelligence, and adaptability, as these qualities are highly valued by employers.
