Madras Institute of Technology- [MIT], Chennai - Placement Details and Companies Visiting

Q: What is the best placement story at Madras Institute of Technology (MIT)?

The best placement story would be that of my friends brother and heres why - he is everything you can imagine. He has been a very multidimensional person with active participation in workshops and extracurriculars, he was the class representative and is a topper as well with a 9.2 CGPA. The story goes somewhat like this - In the middle of September, the placement count of the production department was 1/55. Only one student was placed with CitiCorp. Following this, Titan, Hyundai, and Caterpillar came for recruitment as well. After five days of presentations, tests, GD, and interviews those who had applied for Caterpillar assembled at the CEG campus CUIC auditorium, where students were given technical and aptitude tests to solve. My friends brother qualified up to GD but wasnt able to crack it. However, he wasnt disappointed and the next day took the Titan online test in the IT Department but the result got delayed and the company was not reachable. Although to his surprise, Caterpillar again came for recruitment along with M&M and Vedanta. This was probably the last opportunity for all to get placed with a core company. These time marks from the previous rounds were being considered by Caterpillar and he has reached up to GD. He became busy preparing for that even while traveling or eating and did make it to the personal interview. He recollected all the basics of engineering and was ready with his resume points and by 6 pm he made it to the job with his perseverance. I hope this inspires you to make the best of your time.

Ques. Is it true that aeronautical engineering branch in Madras Institute of Technology had the least placements this year?

● Top Answer By Kinjal Ghosh on 17 Jul 21

Yes, not only this year but for the last 5-6 years, MIT Aeronautical Engineering has been facing a lot of trouble in general. The primary reason is that it is one of the university departments of Anna University. In India, there are fewer core companies, and they mostly visit the IITs and NITs. Most of the students are attending IITs and NITs, which also decreases the number of students getting admission in MIT. Exams are used by public sector companies such as DRDO and ISRO to hire employees, and students had to apply after completing their undergraduate degrees. The curriculum isn't very good, in comparison to other streams. Some businesses require specialization, so they opt for P.G. There was no proper guidance from the staff. This is a major issue in the department. Categories Aeronautical Engineering at Madras Institute of Technology Course Fee 2 lakh Highest CTC 23 LPA Average CTC 10 LPA Recruiting Companies Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, Defense Research and Development Organisation, ISRO, NASA etc. Anna University's core placements are declining at a faster rate, and this is not limited to the Aeronautical department. If your goal is to get a job, then it is suggested that you do not go for Aeronautical Engineering at MIT....Read more

Ques. Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IITM): I have had some setbacks in terms of academic performance. What chances do I have to get placed for a top company like Apple or Google?

● Top Answer By Susmita Bose on 29 Apr 21

If you do not have a good academic performance previously, then there is nothing that you can do to change it. So there is no point in crying over that. Placement at college campuses is itself dependent on so many variables, including luck, that it is difficult to predict who will be placed where. People with stellar grades and superb academics throughout have struggled to land top jobs while average grade students have bagged dream roles in big companies such as Google and Apple. Now there are certain things which are in your hand which can certainly help improve your chances during placements. Aim for better grades in whatever time you have at IIT Madras. Do a good internship. Get some practical exposure to the industry. Remember internships are more about learning than getting good compensation. Work on research projects or industrial projects at the college level as well as industrial level, if possible. Also, aim for publishing your research in good journals. This will improve your credibility drastically. Most important of all, improve your communication skills, both verbal as well as written. This is a soft skill that is often neglected by students, but in fact, is one of the most important skills to possess and could be the x-factor of an average student over a strong candidate. If you do all the above things you will definitely bolster your chances of getting selected at those companies. But remember one thing, you should aim for a job profile which interests and suits you over an uninteresting job at a top company. ...Read more

Ques. How are the placements for mechanical in the Madras Institute of Technology?

● Top Answer By K Gowrishankar on 17 Jul 21

Placement should not be the sole yardstick for judging an institute. You should consider other crucial factors like curriculum, faculty, department, research culture, infrastructure, etc. However, if we talk about placement, at MIT, you will receive a handful of opportunities at core companies for technical job roles, many IT companies for both service-based and product-based, and a few other companies for managerial posts. For placements, you will be competing with the entire batch as well as the students of CEG and ACT campuses. So, prepare accordingly. According to the recent placement highlights, the average CTC received by the students is 4 LPA. Apart from the placements, the faculty base for the Mechanical Department is average at best. Also, as the department is quite new, lab facilities are limited and depend a lot on CEG....Read more
