DPU Placement 2026: Highest Package, Average Package, Top Recruiters

Ans. On-campus placements refer to job offers secured through university-organized recruitment drives held on the DPU campus, where companies visit to interview and hire students directly. Off-campus placements involve students securing jobs independently, often through external exams, personal networks, or online applications. Notably, the highest recorded package—INR 70 LPA in AIML—was an off-campus achievement, indicating that students have diverse opportunities outside university placements.

Ans. DPU conducts centralized placement activities for all eligible students, regardless of their academic background or specialization. While software branches have stronger placement outcomes and higher average salaries according to student feedback, initiatives are in place to assist students from core and other disciplines with workshops, training, and alumni mentorships to help them access better opportunities.

Ans. DPU offers extensive placement training programs that include aptitude tests, communication skills workshops, group discussions, personality development sessions, and mock interviews. These initiatives help enhance students’ confidence and readiness for both technical and HR rounds during the recruitment process.

Ans. Yes, many companies recruiting at DPU offer internships that often lead to pre-placement offers (PPOs) based on students’ performance. Internships provide practical exposure, help students build industry connections, and can lead to full-time employment upon graduation.

Ans. Even after students receive job offers, DPU’s Placement Cell provides support through counseling, documentation assistance, and guidance on salary negotiation or further studies, ensuring a smooth transition from campus to corporate roles.

Ans. DPU placement figures reveal strong outcomes for both streams. Dental courses (BDS/MDS) consistently report high median packages and placement rates, often exceeding those of general UG programs. This reflects DPU’s robust reputation and network in health sciences and professional disciplines.

Ans. Students at DPU are not bound by the job offers they receive and may opt for higher studies in India or abroad if they wish. Placement offers are generally flexible, and the university supports multiple pathways to student success, whether through employment or continued education.
