IIIT-Hyderabad Placements

UPDATED: [Based on Mandatory Disclosure and placements section on the official website]

UPDATED part
Recently IIIT-Hyderabad has released information about last year's placements.It is not a part of the mandatory disclosure(as per AICTE norms). Hence the break-up of companies is not available.

Undergraduate Placement

S.No	Program	Participated Students	Placed	Awaiting Placement	% of Placement	Average Salary (INR)(Lac)
1	B Tech (CSE)	941	94	0	100	8.542
2	BTech (ECE)	27	27	0	100	5.50

1. This includes six off-campus offers.

2. This includes a $110,000-a-year offer from Google, USA and two same-value offers from Facebook, USA. If the three overseas offers are excluded, the domestic average compensation will be Rs.7.3 lac.

As mentioned in the original post, it was highly unlikely that there were any foreign placements for the last placement year.However this year IIIT-Hyderabad has clearly mentioned those offers. They include a $110,000 from Google and "two-same value offers" from Facebook,USA (which may imply those two offers are $110,000 as well).

Both Google and Facebook are highly selective recruiters. But Google has been visiting IIIT-Hyderabad for many years now. Most likely they have been recruiting for their India-based offices at around Rs. 10 lpa.
Definitely things are looking up for IIIT-Hyderabad! However by no means is this exclusive. Many other AIEEE colleges do have International placements such as NSIT, NIT-Surathkal etc.
Nevertheless this is one of the best placements in India for CS stream.Apart from placements IIIT-H is well known for its advanced pedagogy in the CS field.

Postgraduate Placement

S.No	Program	Participated Students	Placed	Awaiting Placement	% of Placement	Average Salary (INR)(Lac)
1	M Tech (CSE)	293	29	0	100	5.60
2	M Tech (CSIS)	94	9	0	100	4.85
3	M Tech (CL)	3	3	0	100	4.40
4	M Tech (VLSI)	20	195	1	95	4.22
5	M Tech (CASE)	9	4	5	445	4.50
6	M Tech (BI)	12	6	9	25	4.40

3. One student each from M Tech (CSE) and M Tech (CSIS) has an off-campus job.

4. This includes three students who only have internship placement. This year, in view of a continuing slump in the semiconductor job market, VLSI students, like in the past year, have offered to consider students with internships placement as “students placed”.

5. M Tech (CASE) and M Tech (Bioinformatics) programs saw unimpressive placement in view of the depressed infrastructure and bioinformatics job markets.

6. This includes two students who have internship cum job offers.

Clearly a marked difference.While UG students have done very well, MTech students haven't.
