For Devansh Bajaj, a student of the B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering (Batch of 2027) at Galgotias University, securing a total package of ₹60 LPA from Microsoft is more than a remarkable personal accomplishment — it reflects how curiosity, determination, and structured mentorship can create extraordinary results. His growth from an eager learner to earning a position at one of the world’s leading technology companies highlights the effectiveness of an industry-driven academic environment that blends strong fundamentals with intensive practical learning.

Where passion meets possibilities

Devansh’s interest in technology developed at a young age, shaped by a desire to understand how software can transform everyday life. This early curiosity gained clear direction at Galgotias University, where an outcome-based curriculum, coding-focused atmosphere, and innovation-led culture enabled him to convert enthusiasm into expertise. For him, choosing Computer Science was not just an academic decision — it was a path to explore the logic, creativity, and engineering behind modern digital solutions.

Building skills that match global expectations

During his journey at Galgotias, Devansh gained far more than theoretical understanding. He developed industry-ready capabilities through rigorous practice in Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA), competitive programming, and hands-on, project-based learning. His participation in hackathons, coding contests, and innovation-led challenges strengthened his ability to create scalable, high-performing solutions under real-world conditions.

“Every project or coding competition was a fresh opportunity to challenge myself, learn deeply, and advance. The ecosystem here constantly encourages you to push beyond your limits,” Devansh said.

Preparation for global opportunities

A key part of Galgotias University’s success stories lies in the early and continuous preparation provided to students. Through the Career Planning and Development Division (CPDD) and experienced faculty mentors, students receive dedicated support, including mock interviews, technical training sessions, and structured mentorship that enhances both technical expertise and professional confidence.

Devansh’s internship at Microsoft, with a monthly stipend of ₹1,00,000, proved transformative — offering real-world exposure and enabling him to apply academic knowledge to complex, global-scale systems. This experience played a vital role in securing his full-time placement.
