StepVista Data Interpretation

Observations on Outcomes Cohorts and Median Compensation Patterns

1. Placement Base Trajectory: Graduating cohorts reflect highly stable median salary packages of ₹3.50 LPA over recent cycles, indicating that placement outcomes appear consistent with service-sector and mid-tier IT recruitment patterns reflected in median salary data.
2. Career Placement Performance: In 2023-24, 154 students were placed out of 204 graduates (representing a 75.5% placement rate). Placement rate calculated from NIRF-reported graduating and placed student counts for 2023-24.
3. Contrasting Advertised Packages: While the institution reports a highest package of ₹9.0 - 12.0 LPA (Institution Claim) for individual placement outcomes, candidates should evaluate career choices using the verified median entry package of ₹3.50 LPA.
4. Academic ROI Realism: Students entering through higher-fee categories (such as COMEDK at ₹3.0–3.25 Lakhs per year) should evaluate expected ROI relative to the institution’s verified median placement outcome of ₹3.50 LPA.

Enrollment and Departmental Utilization

1. Branch Demand Skew: While computing branches show high enrollment levels (e.g., 218 actual admissions out of 240 seats in CSE), core engineering streams demonstrate notable seat vacancy.
2. Core Branch Vacancies: Mechanical Engineering recorded significantly lower enrollment compared to sanctioned intake (only 5 admissions out of 30 seats), reflecting broader market preferences toward computing branches.

Research and R&D Output Evaluation

1. Sustained Research Funding: The institution demonstrates moderate research activity through funded projects and patent filings. Cumulative sponsored research funding across multiple academic cycles exceeded ₹1.75 crores (Institution Claim).
2. Consultancy & Technology Outputs: Consultancy revenues (under ₹1.0 Lakh annually in recent years) suggest early-stage local industry collaboration.
