Mr. Vikas Mathur (1988 graduating Batch - Computer Engineering)

Current designation: Founder and CEO RightCloudz, Banglore

Over the many years since its inception I have seen the college grow from strength to strength in all the areas of its operation. The dedicated management team and enthusiastic faculty have always kept the student’s interests in mind and created an environment where learning is fun, intensive and industry oriented. They have ensured that students have access to excellent facilities, labs and continuous opportunities for industry interactions including campus placement opportunities. I wish continued success to the college and current students who I am sure will find great careers in their chosen professional areas.

Mr. Sanjay Pundir (1990 graduating Batch - Computer Engineering)

Current designation: Founder and CEO at Right Aligned Solutions Pvt Ltd, Banglore

I run 2 IT companies (Right Aligned Solutions Pvt Ltd (www.rasls.com) and CorpYogi Systems Pvt Ltd: Brand – apnaoffice (www.apnaoffice.in)) and it is all because of the foundation that was laid down longtime back during my college days in D Y Patil College. We had the best set of professors who helped us mould our thinking and career. I thank every one of them including the support staff who would go beyond the normal to address our concerns. The formation years in D Y Patil College helped us do what we successfully do today. Sincerely wish to contribute with my efforts in building the careers of the next generation of professionals coming out from my college. Wish my college to continue the good work in helping students become successful professionals.

Ms. Blessy Cherian (2002 graduating Batch - Instrumentation & Control Engineering )

Current designation: AGM-HR & Admin,ElectroMech Group

It’s a proud feeling to be associated with DYPCOE.

The state of the art infrastructure, experienced and supportive professors and a diverse student population, gave us an exposure and confidence to strive and reach where we are today. The efforts taken to improve the industry-institution interface are commendable. Earlier as a student and now as a hiring manager, it amazes me to see the dedication & commitment by the college staff to ensure that the students are well prepared for the placements. Education is a huge responsibility as it contributes to building a society and a nation.

D Y Patil has taken this responsibility and they are definitely taking the education standard to the next level.

Mr.Kaustubh Githapathi (2004 graduating Batch - Instrumentation & Control Engineering)

Current designation: Founder of Kimaya Automation, Pune

I feel very proud to be a student of DYPCOE, Akurdi. The college supported and developed me personally and professionally as a manager and the great thing is that I am able to apply this knowledge gained in my own business. All my success is due to the support of faculties from the Instrumentation Department.

Sreeju Manoj Menon (2005 graduating Batch - Computer Engineering)

Current designation: Sr. IT Security Analyst,Oracle India

I think DYPCOE is one of the finest Engg colleges in Pune and I feel very proud to be alumni. It’s been 12 years since I passed out of college but when I think of my college, it brings back loads of wonderful memories and always brings a smile to my face. DY has been instrumental in my overall development, be it developing my interpersonal skills, leadership qualities, technical skills. I owe a lot to what I am today to my college and the wonderful faculty not just my stream (Computers) but all the support staff. It’s been truly amazing and I am sure all my friends and juniors agree with my emotions.

Mr.Ankur Sah (2008 graduating Batch - Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering)

Current designation: Technology Consultant with UMT consulting in Houston, Texas

I am thankful to college for providing platform for entering into software industry through placement cell. I graduated from E&TC in 2008 and joined Syntel through campus placement, following which I worked for AMDOCS, IBM and KPMG. I have completed MS & currently working as a Technology Consultant with UMT consulting in Houston, Texas.

Mr. Tushar Jadhav (2008 graduating Batch - Instrumentation & Control Engineering)

Current designation: Group Head-Controls, Global Engineering Center, Johnson Control

Dr. D. Y. Patil College Of Engineering has really providing a ground to nurture the talent. Campus is completely in line with the vision of imparting world class quality education to the students in various disciplines, with state of art infrastructure. Quality education has prime importance here rather than number of placements. If you have basics of engineering in place, then getting the job from campus becomes secondary. I would say college is truly focusing on bringing talent out, not the heads.

I am proud to have Dr. D. Y. Patil College of Engineering as my alma mater and wish them the best to achieve their fortune

Mr. Suyash Bhatnagar(2011 graduating Batch – Information Technology)

My journey at DYPCOE has been full of excitement, challenges and learning. It was an environment of great fun, where every day offered the chance to learn something new.DYPCOE has provided me a platform to realize my potential & to make the best use of it. The DYPCOE provided me an opportunity to work with L&T InfoTech through its placement cell, which gave my professional career a solid foundation. Today when I look at the different professional options available to me, I think my decision to join the DYPCOE was undoubtedly correct. I am overwhelmed by being an Alumni DYPCOE for whatever & wherever I am today.

Mr. Rahul Bagade, (2012 graduating Batch - Information Technology)

DYPCOE has provided me a great platform for the overall growth and development.
The campus has excellent infrastructure and is very beautiful with student-friendly amenities and greenery, canteen, activity center, equipped computer lab, and modern well-equipped library.

I found lifetime friends, who are part of my life. I miss the college days

Mr. Rahil Shaikh, (2013 graduating Batch - Information Technology)

Current designation: CEO, TechMainstay Software Pvt. Ltd.

Study environment in D Y Patil COE makes it easy for a student to learn and inculcate the spirit to stand out amongst the talented and hardworking students. Another feather in the cap is the professors that impart quality education to their students. Never can a student find himself lost in a concept and professors not being able to rescue him! I could see lots of changes in infrastructure, especially the Training & Placement department has improved a lot, and all the labs have been improved. The infrastructure of the institute speaks for itself. I would like to guide the students as & when needed. Currently I am working as CEO of TechMainstay.

Mr.Dipesh Bafna (2014 graduating Batch - Civil Engineering)

Current designation: Founder Director, Know How Schools

Few are lucky enough to get chance to stay connected with their college, their alma-matter even after graduation and I am happy to say I'm one of those few.The journey during graduation was worth in itself. Right from experienced faculty to well set labs, the college has a perfect blend of infrastructure and quality teachers. Besides, one can easily figure out it's emphasis on Kaizen with their continuous efforts to improve everyday.The training and placement cell does justice to the quality of students being developed in the college by bringing for them right opportunities at every stage. Know How Schools, my startup to give students hands on training, is fortunate enough to have started with DYPCoE, Akurdi itself and I am sure this association shall go long.

DYPCOE, Akurdi has provided me a platform for enrichment of my skills in 360°. Apart from this, lectures conducted over this platform are worth attending especially conducted by our Training and Placement department. The session on MEP domain is a good platform for presenting oneself in order to develop communication skills, presentation skills ,etc. which is the requirement of today's industrial world. It has also helped us to nurture our skill sets in civil engineering in order to make us employable. I really extend my sincere gratitude to all the honorable speakers, mentors and all the stakeholders of this platform who has helped us in building our future .

GAYATRI SHINDE (2021 Graduating Batch - Civil Engineering)

I am very grateful to all the teachers and would like to express my special thanks to Training and Placement Department of our college.

Ms. Axasusan Mathew (2022 graduating Batch – Instrumentation & Control)

Current designation: Graduate Trainee Engineer, Rockwell Automation

I still remember the pivotal moment of my journey as an aspirant engineering student, when I first visited DYPCOE's awestruck college campus. The first thought which came to my mind was that this place is going to change the way I look at the world. Indeed, it did in the next several years. It was a very fruitful journey from the start as the pleasant atmosphere of campus merged with vibrant and supportive college professors, we got the impetus to explore and innovate in our respective fields. As in my experience, I was a member of D.Y Patil Robotics and AI club and toastmasters’ team. Being enthusiastically involved in various challenging and mind-blowing activities, in turn, helped me to build my overall personality.

I'm really thankful to my department (Instrumentation and Control). All the professors helped me to get industry-ready by providing all the students with practical and basics knowledge.

I got campus selected by 3 top firms including Rockwell automation, Capgemini, and Evosys. It was the overall outcome of support provided by the T&P cell by conducting various sessions for placements. These brainstorming sessions helped ease the pressure of facing the interview panel. I deeply thank all the people who were beside me throughout my engineering journey and made my journey memorable.

Koushal Sharma (2022 graduating Batch – Information Technology Engineering)

I have improved my skills a lot over my span at this college. The faculty were always supportive. They helped us to think outside the box and always motivated us to be the best. The department took care of providing all the tools necessary to make learning a consistent process.Also, the kind of personalities I got to meet here was amazing. I got to learn from many people. They have truly made this college grow and all the credit for my success goes to my family, teachers and friends at DYPCOE.
