    My experience with VIT is good so far.

    College Infrastructure

    The infrastructure is good. Wifi is poor sometimes. The campus overall is clean. The libraries are good with many different books. The faculties are highly skilled except 1 or 2 who can be rejected during ffcs.

    Academics

    All the faculties are good except 1 or 2. The ffcs system can make us choose the faculties we want. The curriculum is updated as it is foreign syllabus. The ppts will be sent to the students for studying.

    Placements

    From what I heard from the seniors is that VIT has 100% placements. The CSE dept has very good placements when compared to other depts. The companies recruiting are good. The average salary is offered is also good.

    Value for Money

    The fees is a little too much for undergraduation. But I guess its worth as the opportunities are good. I guess the fees could be reduced a little as not everyone will be able to afford that much fees.

    Campus Life

    Its safe and cool. The faculties are not very strict and student friendly. But few are exceptions. The peer group will be good. All the students are talented and make the class average challenging. Emeergencies can be handled easily as treatments will be given inside the campus.

    Others

    Overall the students will have a good and pleasant college life. They will be exposed to new learning and extra skills. A place to learn and a chance to grow. Cultural fests are avaerage. Vellore campus has better fests.

    I had a very pleasant experience in VIT Chennai.

    College Infrastructure

    The college has two main academic blocks, an administration block and a library apart from the hostel blocks. All the classrooms are equipped with projector facilities and the labs are well-equipped. There are 6 hostel blocks including one separate block for first year boys and similarly for girls.

    Academics

    I am studying B.Tech Computer Science with Specialization in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Most of the faculty have done their PhDs and the faculty count for each department is pretty good, so is their teaching. My curriculum is updated according to the latest standards and has basic courses that are mandatory for a computer science engineer as well as courses that cover core concepts of AI and ML. We also get to choose which subjects we want to study and under which faculty.

    Placements

    In 2019-2020, over 700 companies have come to VIT Chennai for placements. The highest salary package offered was 40 LPA by Microsoft. The total number of job offers were around 6000 among which around 500 were under the Super Dream category.

    Value for Money

    All engineering courses cost the same per annum but it differs based on the category in which you get your admission, which in turn, depends on your VITEEE rank. I got my admission in the first category and the total fees per annum was around 1.95 LPA. Yes, the money I spent in it is worth the campus life, teaching services, and other cultural as well as technical exposure I received at the college.

    Campus Life

    The college has a vast campus of around 180 acres of land. VIT Chennai is well known for its "Green Campus". There are 2 academic blocks and an administration block apart from the 6 hostel blocks, medical center, food court, gym and Library. Sports amenities include basketball grounds, football grounds, tennis court, volley ball court and whatnot. Food court and eateries serve good quality food and the WiFi is also not that bad around the campus. Moreover, the campus is ragging-free.

    Not a bad colleges wrt to VIT Vellore

    College Infrastructure

    The college have all the necessary infrastructure, facilities and the equipments required for my engineering. Our classrooms are well equipped with smart boards and projectors. Our labs are all centralised air conditioned along with unlimited wifi. We have 3 hostels 1 for girls and 2 for boys. We have gyms along with the hostels which are well maintained. Infrastructure wise vit chennai stands tall with no compromises made.

    Academics

    It all depends on the FFCS which really comes in handy. It completely depends on what kind of teacher one wants to choose. Also it depends on how well you can manage your time. Curriculum wise it is the best and we need to do project in most advanced topics. Also we have relative grading so no one can actually slack off. VIT ensures that we are job ready by making us become competitive enough.

    Placements

    The average placement of this college is around 7.5 lpa. Around 90 percent of the students are placed. The highest salary package is 42 lpa from our campus and it went to CSE branch student. I have not been placed yet but our seniors are not generally worried about placements. Around 500 to 600 companies visit our college for placements.

    Value for Money

    It depends on the category you are studying. I think the course fee could be a little less. They charge us literally for everything and this could not be helped.

    Campus Life

    The college is best according to me. Only for girls there are restrictions to go out after 7 pm. So yes for boys it is 9 30pm and never is a problem for me. Even the location is not far from chennai international airport which is 15 km away. The hostel is very safe and hygenic. We have 24x7 ambulance service with hospital within 10km reach. We also have sprinklers in case of any fire in hostels and the academic block

    Others

    It is very good owing to the fact that it alll started only 10 years ago.

    You may like it, but I definately didn't.

    College Infrastructure

    It's just okay, classrooms and hostels and very congested. You won't get any personal space. Gardens are nice but those idiot guards won't just let you sit there in peace. Building looks good from outside but is actually very shitty from inside.now judge yourself.

    Academics

    It's shit, I'm no hater but trust me, they will make u do nonsense assignment throughout your semester. And worst, they will place holidays such that exams are straight after it, so you never get to really enjoy. And the exams are just shity easy of extreme hard, and you'll never kno where you'll lose marks.

    Placements

    If you are okay with 3-5 lakh packages, this is a perfect place for you. But if you want to achieve something, if you want gain knowledge, trust me, this isn't the place for you. You will definately have to go for higher studies if you want be well placed. I have lots of friends in 4th year, trust me with this.

    Value for Money

    Hostel rooms are too expensive, and too shitty to live in. Same goes for mess.

    Campus Life

    Well if you're the type of person whose parents doesn't give you much freedom. if you are okay with getting locked inside hostel after 9 PM, if you are okay with college not allowing you to go outside, if you are okay living in a strict environment for no reason at all, It should be fine. But if you are anything like me who like to go around and explore and party late nights, trust me, you will hate this place.

    Others

    There would be a lot of people and reviews telling you right now that that VIT is a great University. Well, it might befor you. If you've never had any freedom in your house, if you're okay working like a donkey 24/7 without any perticular reason, if you're okay with teachers and warden constantly poking in your personal life and telling you what to do, if you really have no real ambitions and just want a 9-6 job paying 30,000 a month, basically if u r already dead inside, u r good to go.

    VIT is an amazing college. You will really enjoy it.

    College Infrastructure

    The infrastructure is really good. It's getting even better. They have added 2 buildings in the campus after I joined and I am still a first year. Also, the labs are well maintained and have all the necessary equipment.

    Academics

    I am studying CSE and the teachers are good. They are approachable and we can take any doubts to them. The curriculum is definitely being updated according to the need like the addition of AI, ML, IoT, Cyber security, etc.

    Placements

    There are all kinds of placements from college. Some students get great placements in great companies and others get decent companies too. Most students are placed in some company or the other based on how well they perform overall.

    Value for Money

    The cost per year for your course depends on your rank and the category in which you receive admission. If you take admission in category 1 then you have great value for money. Although it falls heavy I'm the pocket if your rank isn't that good.

    Review of VIT Chennai

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    Infrastructure for the campus has been expanded to a great extent with the addition of new labs underway. A new gym along with a food court has been recently developed in the campus with a swimming pool under construction. Vit is equipped with all the required facilities. The hostels are well developed too.

    Academics

    A lot of professors are highly qualified and helpful in the ventures taken up by the students. The curriculum provides all-round knowledge to the students and helps them choose the path they want to follow themselves. Though choosing the courses for ourselves is a benefit provided in VIT, it sometimes restricts students to specialise in one field. In another sense, the curriculum helps students acquire knowledge about a variety of fields.

    Placements

    The college has strict rules, but it is good while working in the company. The college is well-known for its placements. About 90-95% of the students get placements. It depends on the students' overall performance and grabbing opportunities. The average salary package offered is 7 LPA.

    whether a BE in chemical engineering from thapar fetch better placement than a Be in IT/CSE from VIT Chennai

    Dear aspirant,

    Well, for placements, a B.Tech in IT/CSE from VIT Chennai is often considered a better option for placements than a B.Tech in Chemical Engineering from Thapar. While Thapar has a good reputation, VIT Chennai's strong placement record in IT/CSE, especially with higher packages, often makes it a more better choice for students pursuing these fields.

    Thank you.

    VIT chennai electronics engineering vlsi vs SRM kattankulathur electronics engineering vlsi. Which is best in terms of placements and core companies visiting

    Hello,

    Between VIT Chennai and SRM Kattankulathur for Electronics Engineering with VLSI specialisation, VIT Chennai is generally better in terms of:

    • Placements: VIT has a slightly better placement record, especially for core electronics and VLSI roles.

    • Core companies: More core and semiconductor companies like Intel, NXP, Qualcomm, and Texas Instruments tend to visit VIT (mostly Vellore, but some do come to Chennai as well).

    • Reputation: VIT has better industry recognition and alumni network in the core field.

    So, if you are focused on VLSI and core job roles, VIT Chennai is a better option than SRM Kattankulathur .

    Hope it helps !
