Careers as a four-year project.

Not a final-semester scramble — a career arc with training woven into every year. This page deliberately shows no fabricated placement statistics.

The Arc

How the career program runs

Year 1 — Foundations

Aptitude, communication and coding foundations assessed early, coached continuously.

Year 2 — Industry contact

First internships and live company briefs inside coursework.

Year 3 — Specialise

Elective tracks matched to career goals with one-on-one mentor matching.

Year 4 — Placement season

Mock interviews, portfolio reviews and the on-campus placement season.

Services

What the career services team provides

Service descriptions are prototype content; partner counts and salary figures are intentionally omitted until verified data exists.

Mentor matching

Every student gets an alumni or industry mentor from year two onward.

Interview gyms

Weekly mock interviews — technical, HR and case formats — with recorded feedback.

Internship pipeline

Curated internship openings integrated with the academic calendar, not against it.

Data Integrity

Why there are no numbers on this page

Placement figures — offers, salary bands, recruiter lists — are among the most misused numbers in education marketing. This prototype will not invent them. The production site will publish verified placement data from official records, clearly dated and sourced.

What the design shows is the system: the four-year arc, the services and the student-facing process that produce outcomes worth reporting honestly.

Planned

Verified outcomes report

A dedicated, audited outcomes page with year-on-year data.

Policy

No unsourced claims

Every statistic on the launched site will carry a source and date.
