Placement scenario in mit blr
Hey guys,
I'm currently looking into MIT Bangalore (specifically for tech branches like CSE/AI) and wanted to get some raw, unfiltered insights from seniors who are currently in their 3rd/4th year or just graduated.
I’ve seen official PR articles and conflicting opinions on this sub. Some say centralized placements with Main Campus saved the initial batches, while others mention that the campus is moving toward independent placements now.
Can any seniors shed some light on these specific questions?
Big Tech/FAANG Presence: Do top-tier companies (Microsoft, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, etc.) actually hire from the BLR campus on equal footing, or do main campus students get heavy preference?
Decentralization: How is the transition to an independent placement cell going? Are Bangalore-based companies actively visiting the campus?
The Stats vs. Reality: What does the actual median package look like for CSE/ECE? Is the placement percentage healthy, or are a lot of people struggling to get placed due to the current market?
Is it worth ₹30L+? Looking back, do you feel the massive fees are justified by the opportunities and exposure provided here, or would you recommend looking elsewhere?
Any advice, data, or personal experiences would be incredibly helpful to help me (and many others) make a final decision. Thanks in advance!
