The university states that its placement office works closely with industry partners and conducts employability initiatives, training and recruitment activities for students.
For the 2024-25 academic year, the latest NIRF-based data reports that 950 students from 4-year UG programmes were placed out of 1,045 graduates, with a median salary of INR 8 Lakhs per annum. For 2-year PG programmes, the median salary was INR 6 Lakhs per annum.
SJCE Placement Overview
SJCE placements cover students across engineering and other professional programmes. The placement process includes campus recruitment, employability training, interviews, skill assessments, internships and pre-placement opportunities. JSS STU's official website lists several major recruiters associated with its placement ecosystem, including Cisco, Accenture, IBM, Visa, Apple, SAP, Qualcomm, Microsoft and Google.
| Particulars | Placement Statistics |
| Academic Year | 2024-25 |
| UG Graduates | 1,045 |
| UG Students Placed | 950 |
| UG Placement Percentage | 90.91% |
| UG Median Salary | INR 8 LPA |
| PG Median Salary | INR 6 LPA |
| Placement Support | Training, campus recruitment and industry interaction |
The latest NIRF-based figures indicate that 950 out of 1,045 graduates from the four-year UG programmes were placed during 2024-25. This translates to approximately 90.91% of the graduating cohort.
SJCE Placement Statistics 2025
The 2024-25 placement data provides a more reliable picture of placement outcomes than older placement-drive figures. According to NIRF 2026 data reported for JSS STU, 950 students from four-year UG programmes secured placements, while the median salary was INR 8 Lakhs per annum.
| Placement Parameter | 2024-25 Data |
| Total UG Graduates | 1,045 |
| Students Placed | 950 |
| Placement Rate | 90.91% |
| Median Salary | INR 8 LPA |
| Students Opting for Higher Studies | 87 |
| PG Median Salary | INR 6 LPA |
The median salary, rather than the highest package, is a useful indicator of the typical placement outcome because it is less affected by a small number of exceptionally high offers.
Some sources report higher figures for the overall JSS STU placement ecosystem. For example, India Today reports 958 domestic placements, a highest salary of INR 65 LPA and an average salary of INR 15 LPA for 2024-25. These figures are reported separately from the NIRF dataset and should not be treated as directly equivalent to the NIRF UG placement statistics.
SJCE Highest Package
The highest package at SJCE/JSS STU varies by placement year and source. The university's official website currently highlights its placement ecosystem but does not provide a consolidated latest highest-package figure on the main placement page.
For 2024-25, India Today reports the highest salary at INR 65 LPA for JSS Science and Technology University. However, this figure should be considered separately from the NIRF-reported median salary of INR 8 LPA.
Earlier placement data had reported a highest package of INR 56 LPA, but this is an older figure and should not be presented as the latest SJCE placement package.
SJCE Branch-Wise Placement Insights
SJCE offers engineering programmes in areas including Computer Science and Engineering, Information Science and Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Biotechnology, Industrial and Production Engineering, Environmental Engineering and other disciplines.
Computer-related and electronics branches generally attract a wide range of technology and software recruiters, while core engineering branches receive opportunities from engineering, manufacturing, automotive and related companies.
Recent placement activity has also shown opportunities for students from core engineering disciplines. A 2026 Times of India report noted that a mechanical engineering student from SJCE secured an annual package of INR 27 LPA, highlighting continued recruitment interest in core engineering talent.
Because the university does not currently publish a complete, standardised 2024-25 branch-wise placement table covering every SJCE programme, branch-specific salary figures should be treated cautiously.
SJCE Placement Process
The SJCE placement and training cell supports students through multiple stages of recruitment preparation. The university states that its placement office collaborates with industry partners and focuses on improving employability through practical and communication-oriented training.

For example, an official 2024-25 document records a pre-placement offer from Collins Aerospace to an SJCE student through its Early Career Programme. The offer included a six-month internship followed by potential conversion to a Graduate Engineer Trainee/Post Graduate Engineer Trainee role subject to specified conditions.
