Placement Objectives for Graduates

     Our graduates are often treated as Colleagues in term of incorporating them in research early in their academic learning. Most of our doctoral graduates often produce high quality publications in professional journals. This leads them to a wide variety of opportunities. Several of our graduates are Professors, Researchers in industries, Scientists at government labs and in several engineering firms etc. The choice of placement of a student depends on the topic of the thesis. Most students who are placed in the Universities are trained to write research papers and in many cases participate in writing proposals. The students seek industrial settings, are often funded by grants from the industry thus enhancing their marketability to these and other industries. The same is true with federal laboratories such as NASA.
