The MTech programmes in Additive Manufacturing and Medical Device Innovation at IIT Hyderabad have achieved 100% placements during the recently concluded placement season.
Despite a highly challenging global hiring environment, the premier institute showcased robust recruiter diversity, culminating in a stellar top package of INR 81 Lakhs Per Annum (LPA) within these specialised courses and its PhD cohorts.
The recruitment drive, overseen by the institute's Office of Career Services, commenced on December 1, 2024, running seamlessly across both online and offline formats.
A total of 320 companies participated in the session, hiring across engineering, science, design, and management disciplines.
While specialised niche programs secured absolute perfect records, the core engineering and flagship computer branches also posted strong employment numbers:
