Presidency University : Fees, Admission Procedure 2025, Entrance Exam Accepted & Placements

At Presidency University, we understand and value the importance of placement assistance in shaping the career of our students. We would like to be the preferred source of hiring for top recruiters and believe in making dedicated efforts to build long term relationships with our recruiting partners. Along with academic excellence, parallel focus and importance is placed on preparing our students to face the challenges rising from the growing demands from the industry. Emphasis is on investing more time in training, soft skills development, relevant certification programs and calling for inputs from the industry in building and revising our curriculum and course structure at Presidency University. Students also regularly get to interact with professionals from the industry to understand the career opportunities and practical aspects of various functions.

EMPLOYABILITY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAMME

It is not unemployment but employability which is of concern today. Companies need trained and qualified students who are job ready. Since there are rapid and continuous changes in the economy and industry, it takes time for the academic curriculum to incorporate the latest developments in economy, technology and industry requirements. While ample of job opportunities are available, recruiters find that the students are not up to the mark or do not have latest or requisite skills. Due to this companies are forced to incur huge induction and training expenses or recruit experienced candidates, leading to loss of opportunities for freshers.

Keeping this in mind, Presidency College has instituted an extensive Employability Enhancement Programme (EEP) to upgrade skills of students and help them get good jobs. EEP has three main components –

• Soft Skills Training
• Certification Programmes
• Placement Preparation

All students undergo extensive Soft Skills Training to improve their personality, communication skills, grooming and etiquette etc. This improves their confidence and helps them in effective interaction with others.

In collaboration with leading entities, many Certification Programmes are conducted in relevant domain areas to enhance professional skills of students. These programmes are highly subsidised by the University.

Finally, students undergo an intensive placement preparation where they get trained in resume preparation, participation in group discussions and personal interviews. Mock GD & personal interviews are conducted and video recorded for evaluation.

HR professionals from top companies are invited to the campus to conduct Guest Lectures about their expectation from the candidates and to guide the students in how to prepare themselves for landing their dream jobs.
