SMVDU Overview

Dislikes

Because it’s located in a remote area, you don’t get as many industry interactions, internships, or cultural events as you would in metro-based universities.
For branches like CSE and ECE, placements are fairly decent. But for core branches (civil, mechanical, biotech, etc.), opportunities are fewer and students often have to prepare for outside exams/jobs themselves.

In case placement they tries give opportunities but didn't succeeded to much well. As 9.5 lpa is highest package by B.Tech CSE on campus but off-campus doing well as B.Tech CSE got 2 time 36 lpa as highest

The Tales Of SMVDU

The Placements opportunities are fair as they placement is not good. The average placement is 5 l.p.a which is very low. So you have to prepare for off campus placement. The College is slightly cut off from the top companies and they are not visiting our college from covide period. Thus placement is at not good track.

Highest package is around 17 LPA and average package is around 5 LPA . Almost 30 percent students get placement. My plan is to get off campus placement.

Nice and Unbiased review of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University Katra

The placement of our college is Average and the students are eligible in 7 semester for placement. If the student has any backlog in any of the semester they can't sit in the college placement and also it has minimum criteria of 6.5 cgpa. The percentage of students getting placement is very low sadly

The facility members are knowledgeable and many of them are actively involved in researches. Student get guidance for projects, internships and competitive exams.

Wild placement opportunities exist, especially for CSE students. They are not as extensive as in top tier institute. More industry connection and internship opportunities could be beneficial.

Placement eligibility begins in the 7th semester for most student. Some companies also offered internships in the six semester, which can later convert into full time job offers. Tcs Vipro Infosys, Cognizant, Hcl Lnt Infotech and Zn associates, primarily offering software development, testing and consulting rules Some student get offers from an mnc's and startup through of campus drives. Highest package 12 to 15 LPA average package is 5 to 7.

My brief review about my college

Placements could be improved, environment of technology studies should be encouraged

There are good companies visiting our college and some PSU too like BEL. almost all the cse students get placed, good companies for cse/ece come in the college though the pay is <15lpa. I will be looking for a job after my degree L&T, Infosys, Capegemini, accenture, TCS.. and refer to college site for more names.
