Message from the Head

Head - Placement & Training

“If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.”
– Napoleon Hill

In the rapidly changing business environment today, it has become perilous for organizations to continuously change and evolve for success. The Changing paradigms have made obligatory for an academic institution to foster a new breed of professionals – individuals equipped with the right kind of knowledge, technical skills, ability to think out of the box and innovation. The industry expectations have gone higher and only those who have the right attitude & skills to accept challenges endure and upsurge the performance ladder each day. The education system of the University provides the right training in perfect blend with the moral values to ensure that the students not only become successful professionals but also come out as exceptional human beings with rich values. The value added programs offered at the University enhance the ‘employability' of the students and make them facilitators of transformation. It is for this reason that leading corporates consider HITS as a preferred recruitment partner.

Training & Placement is a process that starts; the moment a student takes admission in a specific program and ends with the final placement and absorption of the student in a given company. The process doesn't end here. What also sets us apart is our ability to allow the students to explore a diverse set of functions, roles and career paths. The only objective of HITS has been creating knowledge, influencing management practices and global integration. The institute places special emphasis on inculcating corporate values and skills required for complex decision-making, besides developing superior expertise on functional domains and garnering business knowledge.

At HITS, we nurture inquisitive, enterprising and probing outlook of students. The rich learning environment and the rigorous and comprehensive academic programs offered by Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science empower the students to become leaders in their respective fields.
