For a young 10+2 student, this seems to be the most important question. Since placements are considered the top barometer of success, I will talk about the factors leading to placement. Mostly placements are considered as a standalone process. Course curriculum, it needs to be dynamic and industry consulted then; only the professionals be developed who the industry really needs. Programme delivery: Classroom teaching doesn't work anymore, it has to be an experiential learning technique. Technology training: Many times, the students do get good skill sets, but these skills are there with many people in the market, the freshers need to have exposure to tools like Oracle, Advance excel, GitHub, other MOOCs, etc. Which improves the efficiency manifold. Industry interface: To have more and more interactions with industry experts, learning things hands on and networking.
Professional enhancement: Students come from various backgrounds and cultures, they may be very good at inculcating the technical skills, but they also need to clear the interviews to take the jobs. The soft skills, communication, interpersonal and networking skills need to be inculcated in them not only for interviews but for the whole of their careers. Faculty, the faculty that develops the curriculum and delivers the programme with the right teaching pedagogy must be top-notch. Internships, entrepreneurship, community development projects etc.: They need to be an integral part of the curriculum so that students get hands-on knowledge about real-time situations in various aspects of life and business. I have 16 years of experience behind me in some of the top universities of the country in the private sector. I can surely tell you that LPU has excelled in all these factors with unflinching focus. All this has been possible because of heavy and smart investments made by it in intellectual capital. It has been passionate about achieving excellence in each and every process. And it shows in the placements when more than 700 top companies come to campus from all over the world and take thousands of students every year. They not only offer great salary packages from 5 to 42 lacs per annum but also offer the best job roles for freshers. No wonder about 100 of these companies offer more than 10 lacs as yearly packages.
