The President of India, who is also the Visitor to all the Central Universities, had announced the institution of these awards at the Vice-Chancellors’ conference last year with the aim of promoting healthy competition amongst Central Universities and motivating them to adopt best practices from across the world.

``Placements for students of the university, especially in management and computer sciences, have been significant. A few students from the economics, physics, chemistry, english, mathematics and statistics streams have also been placed,’’ Haribabu said.
The majority of students from the M.Tech/ MCA/ MBA streams have been placed in more than 33 companies that visited UoH for campus placements.
The salary package ranged from Rs 2.40 lakh to Rs 7.50 lakh per annum and the highest package offered to M.Tech students was Rs 7.50 lakh per annum by TCS, he added.
