GTU firms up placement plan for all its colleges

GTU has divided its colleges in seven zones,with senior professors from reputed colleges assisting zonal coordinators in better placement of students from each college of every zone. The zonal coordinators will also assist in capacity building of placement officers of individual colleges in their areas.

The decision was taken by GTU as the benefit of campus placement was generally limited to colleges located in important centres like Ahmedabad,Vadodara,Gandhinagar and Surat. The students from the rest of the colleges were not getting an opportunity for campus placement even though they may be equally brilliant or score better marks.

ITAPC will also ensure that students with innovation projects in the third year or finally year of their courses got preference in placement over others.

Vice chancellor Akshay Aggarwal said the ITAP would also try to find out job opportunities for the students among the industries of Gujarat,develop industry-academia relationship,trace multinational companies for campus interviews and keep records of placed and unplaced candidates of GTU.
