In a powerful sign of shifting tides in India's education and employment landscape, Jaipur's JECRC University has reported that 35% of its campus placements in 2025 were bagged by female students, making it one of the most significant examples of gender-progressive hiring in the country's private higher education sector.The announcement comes on the back of an impressive placement season that saw over 2,230 job offers rolled out to students across various disciplines. The highest package touched a staggering 33 lakh per annum, while over 876 students secured packages above 7 LPA. But beyond the numbers, it's the growing presence and performance of women candidates that have sparked headlines and conversations.'Our young women aren't just being placed - they're breaking barriers, leading from the front, and proving that merit has no gender,' said Shri Arpit Agrawal, Vice Chairperson, JECRC University.Corporate India Bets Big on Campus DiversityFrom top tech companies like TCS, Capgemini, LTI Mindtree, and Accenture to roles in consulting, operations, and business management, recruiters hired JECRC women across the board. In fact, tech firms alone accounted for 860 offers, many of which went to female students who stood out in coding, analytics, and cloud computing roles.Meanwhile, non-engineering streams such as BBA, B.Com, and BCA also witnessed high demand, with firms like Accenture and TCS rolling out 125 offers, affirming that JECRC's women are making their mark across sectors, not just STEM.The Engine Behind the Numbers: Skill-First EducationJECRC's placement success is rooted in its Campus Recruitment Training (CRT) - a rigorous 300-hour program that grooms students in aptitude, communication, coding, and behavioral skills. In collaboration with PrepInsta, HackerRank, CoCubes, TCS iON, and AMCAT, the CRT module is tailor-made to match current industry expectations.'CRT has been a game-changer,' said a placement officer at JECRC. 'It doesn't just prepare students for interviews - it builds confidence, especially among first-generation female learners.'Tech-Driven Exposure & Industry AlliancesJECRC's placement success is no accident. It's the result of years of investing in industry partnerships and real-world learning experiences. Programs like ServiceNow training, AWS cloud certifications, and Google Cloud internships give students hands-on experience in high-demand domains.Over 450 students annually benefit from structured industry training, ensuring that graduates are not only academically sound but job-ready from day one.National Stage RecognitionThe university's commitment to inclusive, job-aligned education has earned it invitations to some of the country's most prestigious platforms. In 2025, JECRC was spotlighted at:HR Success Talk (Delhi) - for exemplary corporate collaborationInternational Business Conference (Bengaluru) - for innovation in graduate employabilitySHRM TECH 2.0 (Mumbai) - for AI-integrated hiring models and CRT implementationBeyond Placements: Changing NarrativesIn a country where women make up only a fraction of the workforce in many sectors, JECRC's figures are more than a success story - they are a social indicator of change. The university's rising women placement figures challenge the long-standing gender gap in engineering, IT, and management roles.'JECRC is showing the country what's possible when opportunity meets preparation - regardless of gender,' said an HR leader from a multinational firm that recruited on campus this year.Looking AheadWith 12,000+ students placed in the last five years and momentum building with each batch, JECRC University is poised to become a national benchmark for inclusive, industry-ready education. The 35% female placement share is not just a statistic - it's a symbol. A symbol of the shift from token representation to real leadership, from inclusion to impact.In the classrooms and placement halls of JECRC, a quiet revolution is unfolding - one job offer, one empowered woman at a time.Disclaimer: The material and information contained are for advertorial purposes only.
