Job Prospects in the Future

Placement Cell at Indus

Indus University has an autonomous vertical - Training & Placement Department (T & P Dept.) - that connects two vital ends: education and the industry. It exemplifies a link between schools and university constituent associations (entry-level input) and the sector (output-end at the finishing level).

The Training and Placement Department was established in 2006. It was previously affiliated with the Indus Institute of Technology & Engineering until becoming a part of the Indus University in 2012.

The Training and Placement Department is the hub for career assistance for students from all programmes and streams at the university. It provides students with overall career solutions by encouraging them to choose and pursue their ideal vocations.

T& P cell, Indus University invites several related companies/Industries/recruiters in the campus and provides the platform for the students to get an career opportunity in their field.

Department Activities

Planet Parade 2025: A Sky Gazing Event

On January 28, 2025, AstroClub, iSAC, and the Department of Physics, IISHLS organized an exciting Sky Gazing Event – "Planet Parade 2025" using the Celestron Advanced VX 8-inch Newtonian Telescope. This rare celestial event featured an alignment of planets stretching from Venus in the west to Mars in the east. Despite initial cloud cover, the night turned into a remarkable experience, offering breathtaking views of planetary wonders. Participants observed Venus, which dazzled with its crescent phase, Jupiter, standing out with its bright and dominant presence, and Mars, displaying its striking reddish hue. The event attracted students, faculty members (some accompanied by family), and external visitors, all eager to witness the celestial spectacle. AstroClub members enriched the experience with detailed explanations on planetary phases, orbital motions, and celestial mechanics, making the event both educational and awe-inspiring
