Overall It has been quiet an eventful year for Engineering Colleges.. placements getting affected in all top notch colleges, and awful in case of 2nd or 3rd tier collegs of India. Due to the financial crisis and lehman brothers debacle in 2008 even the placements of IIT's have seen a dip from previous years. Though at the end of it all turned out to be good for these colleges.

2008-2009 has changed a lot of things, craze about investment banking have dipped , number of students opting for Goverment sectors/Core sectors have increased, now peole are taking more concious decisions for their careers. As far as i believe there was a trend way back that the creme' da creme of the top colleges used to go into govt sector jobs as the opportunities in private sectore were limited , then came the trend BOOM IT, students from every branch was eager to join IT sector leaving the core sector deprived of resources and talent.. now then trend has changed again... for the long term benefits....of all....
