Hi Aspirant,

It is a good college no doubt.It has a good placement records for almost all streams except leather and bio technology.In food technology it has got a bad infrastructure facilities like labs and classes.But faculty members are good and experienced.If your performace in college is good then you can easily get a placementat the end for food technology.

However placement records for oil technology is not so good .The placement percentage is about 42% .Faculty is not so good with labs need to be more equipped and modern.So I would not recommend you to join this course in this college.

You can go for food technology as you have a brighter future prospects and the colleges offer you  a good percentage of placements for food technology.

Dear Student,

The oil technology department in HBTU kanpur,  runs a prestigious Indo-Canadian partnership project in collaboration with University of Guelph, Canada. Besides this, Centre of Excellence on “Applied Research Training and Education in Lipid Science” has been established in the department under TEQIP-II (World Bank Project) in which a new state-of-the-art laboratory named, Advanced Surfactant Laboratory has been established.

The Department has also signed MoU with a number of industries viz. M/s Ruchi Soya Industries Ltd., Mumbai, M/s FARELABS, Gurgaon, M/s Mineral Oil Corporation, Kanpur and M/s MILINDIA Ltd., Noida. The financial assistance/ scholarship is available to undergraduate students of Oil Technology from M/s Ruchi Soya Industries Ltd., Mumbai and M/s MILINDIA Ltd., Noida. The postgraduate students of Oil Technology are also having a provision of financial assistance / scholarship from M/s FARELABS, Gurgaon. In addition, a few number of Teaching & Research Assistantships/ Research-cum-Teaching Fellowships are available for Master’s and Doctoral Programmes under TEQIP-II and Center of Excellence (CoE). The scenario of placement of students of the department is excellent, as almost all students get jobs through campus placement in the organizations of high repute. Besides this department is birth place of Oil Technologists’ Association of India (OTAI).

Whereas the food technology department  has well established labs viz. Food Processing Laboratory, Food Microbiology and Biochemistry Lab, Food Quality Laboratory and Food Research Laboratory and equipped with decent number of laboratories equipments UV Double Beam Spectrophotometer, Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS), Texture Analyser, Rapid Visco-Analyzer, Computer Controlled Tray Dryer, Freeze dryer, Vacuum Dryer, Spray Dryer, Fluidized Bed Dryer, Dehumidified dryer, Rotary Vacuum Evaporator, Pasta Making Machine and Potato Chips Making Unit etc. Further, the Department has also signed MoU with reputed institutes and organizations like ICT Mumbai, NIFTEM Haryana, BIS.

The placement index of students of the department is constantly improving and almost all students get jobs through campus placement or opt for higher education in institutions of repute. The Department has organized several National and International seminars, workshops, and Short courses and Expert Lectures, for continuous improvement of Students, Research Scholars and Faculty.

Considering the above points we may know that the Oil Technology course has higher scope and well developed in this particular college , so opting this course might be a good choice for you .

GOOD LUCK
