IIT Jammu, with its ample possibilities to attain exposure in co-curricular and extra-curricular domains alongside cutting edge academic and research infrastructure and the meticulous courses offered, equips the students with skills that are the need of the hour. The technical clubs propel our students to achieve milestones in national level competitions and hackathons. The Career Development Centre, IIT Jammu, strives to bring together the industry’s ambitions and the skills and potential of the students. Students from our prestigious institution have displayed excellence in all pillars of academia and research. I remember perfectly the times I spent with this batch particularly when IIT Jammu was at its nascent stage. They showed exemplary courage, leadership, and team-building qualities, especially during challenging times and that is what I believe is the true test of one’s character to continue to strive and show high morale even when all the tides seem against you. That is why I place such high belief in my Institute and its students because I am a witness to the beauty that the hard work of many has produced. On behalf of IIT Jammu, I would like to invite all the recruiters to be part of our growing family.
