Placement outcomes vary sharply by course.

Pharmacy PG (2-year) placed 61 of 77 graduates at a median of 7.35 LPA, while Pharmacy UG (4-year) placed 61 of 130 at 5.25 LPA.

These figures have generally improved year on year: Medical PG (3-year) median salary rose from 8 LPA in 2021-22 to 14.4 LPA in 2022-23 and 17 LPA in 2023-24, with placement rates staying high throughout. Management PG (2-year) placements held steady near 200 graduates each year, with median salary climbing from 4.63 LPA in 2021-22 to 5.95 LPA in 2023-24. Anyone comparing courses here should look at the specific programme and year, since outcomes differ considerably between the medical, pharmacy, management, and general UG tracks.
