Run a core-sector aptitude sprint

96 at-risk students; two weeks of timed drills lifts branch readiness from 58% to a projected 71%.

ECE

Add four semiconductor recruiters

Micron conversion ran 3× the batch average — Analog Devices, NXP, Sasken and Tessolve are open to a campus slot.

CSE

Build tier-1 system-design labs

42 students sit just under the product-company bar; six weeks of design labs moves most of them across.

MBA

Recruit six consulting alumni

Case club has no coach before the November drive; Deloitte and EY alumni have open slots.
