Top recruiters
The PSU Pipeline
Campus pulls are dominated by public-sector heavyweights — ONGC, Oil India and BCPL. Great if a stable energy-sector gig is the goal. Private recruitment is limited, so don’t sleep on GATE prep and off-campus applications.
The verdict
Worth considering
It’s a solid, low-debt pick if you want core instrumentation roles in the Northeast energy belt. The curriculum keeps it industry-relevant with PLC, SCADA and Process Control, but the 45% placement rate and ₹2.8L average CTC are real. Best for PSU aspirants and GATE planners; not the move if you’re chasing big-tech salaries or metro tech exposure.
