NEW DELHI: The NIIT University (NU) organised its 10th convocation ceremony in the virtual reality mode, keeping in view the safety measures triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Living up to NU’s 100% placement record, the students who were eligible and opted in for placements have been placed with leading organizations like IBM, PwC, EY, Airtel, HCL Technologies, Cognizant, Big Basket, Byjus, to name a few.
