Less than 20 per cent of graduate engineers in Gujarat get jobs. In certain branches like civil engineering, the campus placement figure is abysmally low at 5%. All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) data for 2015-16 reveals that out of 11,190 students who passed computer science only 3,407 got placed.

For the same year, out of 17,028 students who cleared mechanical engineering course only 4,524 got placed. Figures for other branches of engineering are equally grim (see table on page 9). No wonder, out of 71,000 engineering seats across the state, 27,000 seats remained vacant in 2016 in the admission process conducted by the Admission Committee for Professional Courses (ACPC).

Experts say excess supply of engineering graduates against demand, quality of education, huge gap between curriculum and industry needs and lack of soft skills are some of the reasons for poor campus placement record of graduating engineers.
