At Cauvery College of Engineering, Mysore, we believe that education goes beyond academics—it’s about empowering students to achieve their long-term career aspirations. Our Career Guidance Center, launched in 2025, is dedicated to helping students navigate their professional journey, whether they aim to secure a job in the tech industry, pursue higher studies, or start their own ventures. With a focus on our tech-driven programs—Computer Science & Engineering (CSE), Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI & ML), Data Science, Cyber Security, Information Science and Engineering (ISE), and Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE)—we provide personalized support to ensure every student can shape a successful future.
Career Counseling
We offer one-on-one career counseling sessions to help students identify their strengths, interests, and career paths.
Our experienced counselors provide guidance on:
- Choosing the right career path based on individual skills and aspirations (e.g., software development, data science, cyber security, or core engineering roles).
- Exploring job opportunities in Mysore’s IT hub, Bengaluru, and global markets.
- Understanding industry trends and aligning career goals with market demands, such as the growing need for AI & ML experts or cyber security professionals.

We encourage students to explore entrepreneurship through our Innovation Hub, fostering a startup culture on campus:
