Ques. How are placements in PDPU and what is the average placement salary for petroleum engineering?

● Top Answer By Avni Vyas on 19 Jan 22

Ans. Placements at PDPU are really good, as a lot of reputed companies take part in their placement program. They offer proper industrial exposure through internships and industry visits. Petroleum Engineering and Technology students usually receive the highest salary package compared to other branches. Once, ONGC had recruited around 15–20 Petroleum Engineers with a package of around 14–15 LPA. If you compare the average salary package, Petroleum engineers get a package of around 5–6 LPA. Categories Petroleum Engineering at PDPU Course Fee INR 9.73 lakh Placement Percentage 80% Highest CTC 16 LPA Average CTC 8 LPA Recruiting Companies ONGC, Schlumberger, Shell, Reliance, etc. If you have good knowledge and fluent communication skills, combined with a perfect academic performance then you will definitely get placed in one of the reputed companies with appropriate salary packages.Read more

Ques. What should I take IIT Dharwad or IIT Bhilai with Electrical, Mechanical, or IIT Dhanbad with Petroleum?

● Top Answer By Souvik Nayak on 11 Jan 21

Ans. IIT Dhanbad is known for offering the best program for a degree in Petroleum around the world. You will have the chance to secure a job with top companies with high packages, sometimes even leading up to 20 LPA. The table below gives a brief insight into the institutes. Particulars IIT Dharwad Electrical IIT Bhilai MEchanical IIT Dhanbad Petroleum Placement Rate 60% 65% 80% Highest CTC 14 LPA 8 LPA 32 LPA Average CTC 6 LPA 3.5 LPA 8 LPA Current scenario: The number of high paying placements for Petroleum Engineering has considerably reduced after the institute became an IIT. If you have confidence on securing a well-paying job then go ahead and apply for the course in Petroleum. If placement is important to you then you might want to reconsider your options. Electrical and Mechanical observe a high number of placements considering they are core branches of Engineering. Petroleum being a niche field of study sees fewer placements. Infrastructure: (Winning Institute - IIT Dhanbad) IIT Dharwad and IIT Bhilai are fairly new and therefore still do not offer a fully-developed campus. IIT Dhanbad, on the other hand, has a well-developed campus that offers students all modern and updated facilities such as practical labs, multiple academic blocks, a digital library, and more. In terms of Infrastructure, IIT Dhanbad is way better. Both options have their advantages and disadvantages so weigh in those and choose as you see fit.Read more
