Dyal Singh College Placement
Dyal Singh College Placement Overview 2025
Dyal Singh College (DSC), a constituent college of the University of Delhi, supports career development through its active Placement Cell, which organizes on-campus recruitment drives, webinars, seminars, guest lectures, and skill-building workshops. The cell collaborates with over 100 companies, focusing on commerce, economics, and computer science streams, where placements are strongest. As of November 2025, the official 2025 placement report (for the 2024-25 graduating batch) is not yet released. However, NIRF 2025 data (reflecting 2023-24 placements) shows modest outcomes: 200 UG students placed out of 2,045 eligible (9.8% rate), and 205 PG students out of 2,376 eligible (8.6% rate), with a median package of INR 5 LPA for both. Based on 2024 trends, the highest package reached INR 23.5 LPA, average INR 5 LPA, and over 200 students placed, with ~110 offers from major firms. Placement rates are higher (50-60%) in commerce/economics, but many students opt for higher studies or off-campus opportunities. Internships placed 270+ students in 2024, with stipends up to INR 40,000/month.
