VTU Placement 2026: Highest Package, Average Package, Top Recruiters

Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) has an active placement cell that conducts placement drives for students, starting from the 5th semester or the 3rd year. Around 100 to 140 companies visit the campus annually, including major IT firms like Infosys, Wipro, TCS, and Accenture. The average placement package ranges from 4 to 6 LPA, with the highest packages reported up to 39 LPA by companies like Atlassian.

The placement rate varies, with some reports indicating 60% to 95% of students getting placed, depending on the branch and student performance. The college provides training and support for placements, but there is a need for improvement, particularly in non-IT sectors like civil engineering. Internships are also offered, with companies like IBM and Tech Mahindra participating, though opportunities vary across departments.
