Many students secure offers by the end of 3rd year.
Top engineering MoUs include — Foxconn (manufacturing excellence centre), Zoho (software engineering, summer internships), Infosys (campus certification programs), TVS Motor (automotive engineering), Lakshmi Machine Works (textile machinery), L&T (civil and mechanical), and Schneider Electric (EEE student projects). These partners collectively recruit 200+ JKKN engineering graduates annually.
Yes. Healthcare MoUs are particularly deep given JKKN's in-campus 500-bed hospital. Partners include Apollo Hospitals (clinical training and placement), Fortis (nurse recruitment), KMCH Coimbatore (MD/MDS exchange), PSG Hospitals (joint research), NHS UK (international nurse placement), and Gulf hospitals (DHA/MOH commissioning support). These drive international placement pathways for nursing and dental graduates.
Companies interested in MoUs should contact industry-relations@jkkn.ac.in with their proposal. The process: initial discovery call, MoU drafting, scope agreement (internships/research/placement commitments), formal MoU signing, and partnership launch event. JKKN also actively seeks international partners, startups in AI/biotech, and NGOs working on rural development programs.
