Anna University Placements 2024: Highest Package, Average Package, Top Recruiters

CEG (the main campus of Anna University) has a high placement rate when compared to other colleges in Tamil Nadu. It differs depending on the department.

Anna University has an MTech ranking of 18. If you are among the top five students in your class and have significant practical experience, you will almost certainly be placed.

Approximately 2,000 students were placed during the Anna University placements in 2022. During Anna University placements in 2022, the highest and average packages offered were INR 36.50 LPA and INR 6.93 LPA, respectively. Aside from that, 27% of the total batch received a monthly stipend ranging from INR 50,000 to INR 1,00,000 during Anna University internships in 2022.

NIT TRICHY is the best NIT in the country, with NIT WARANGAL ranking second. These two colleges cannot be compared to Anna University.

In every way, the two NITs outperform Anna University. Students' quality, infrastructure, teaching, labs, hostels, campus life, job placements, and festivals are all important factors. Please keep in mind that job placement is not everything. It cannot be the sole criterion for selecting a college. You should consider the teaching, library, and lab infrastructure, and, most importantly, the student intake.

If you're going to live in a hostel for four years, make sure the student peer groups are on your wavelength. You should consider staying in a hostel because it will enable you to gain life experience and mature as a person.

The university's heritage and brand recognition are commendable, but that is all the university has to offer. Surviving after an MBA from Anna University is entirely dependent on one's own initiative, talents, references, and networking.

Yes, placements are available, and the average monthly salary will be between INR 35,000 and 45,000. Companies such as Goldman Sachs, Tata Consultancy Services, HDFC Bank, CTS, TCS, ICICI, and others are frequent recruiters.

There are two things you should be aware of: current arrears and arrears history. The current arrear is the one for which you have not yet cleared the paper at the time of placement. To put it simply, they are the unresolved papers you have in the seventh and eighth semesters, i.e. during the placement season.

The history of arrears is the one you cleared at the time of placement, but it will remain in your academic records. Every company has its own criteria for selecting candidates, but the majority of companies (say, 98%) will not hire a student who is currently in arrears. What's more, you wouldn't be able to attend even large IT companies.

So, to get to the point, having an arrear in the first semester will not affect your placements, but you should complete the paper by the sixth semester (for non-circuit branches) or the end of the second year (for circuit branches) as placements begin a little earlier, such as having internship opportunities in the third year in great companies such as Microsoft ( for CS and IT). If you are a mechanical engineer and have an arrear and clear it, you will be unable to attend some good companies such as Hyundai, Daimler(Benz), and others.

The placement opportunities are not that great for Chemical Engineers at Anna University. Bulk companies like TCS, Infosys, and Accenture, and Analytical companies such as Latent View and Zoom Rx visit the campus every year. Some other IT and Core companies that visit the campus for recruitment are

IT:

•  L&T

•  Infotech

•  Zoho.

Core:

•  Hyundai

•  Saint Gobain

•  ITC

•  SterliteCopper

•  TVS Srichakra

•  Coromandel fertilizers

•  Reliance

Some students even got placement offers from Thermax and Dow for their summer internship.

The placement opportunities for M.Tech students in biotechnology at Anna University are very rare. My friend is a student of Anna University currently pursuing M. tech in biotechnology. She told me that the reality is different once you get into college. No doubt the teachers and curriculum are top notch, but the sole focus throughout the entire first year is studies. There are no practicals at all. Rather it looks like studying the core subjects of B.Tech with higher level education.

The second year has both minor and major projects. Once you are done with the projects you have to do the job seeking alone. There are no placements. Sometimes your mentor can offer you a decent package that will give you sufficient industrial exposure. After this you can apply for high-paying jobs also.
