Cool college for chemical research.

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

VNIT campus is biiiiig, 215 acres with lots of greenery. Chemical labs have advanced reactors for research, library bhi huge with journals and fast wifi. Old buildings need repairs, no AC, summers hot. Hostels clean with gym, but maintenance slow. Good for research.

VNIT PhD Chem Eng: Strong research, cool campus life.

Verified Review

College Infrastructure

The labs in Chemical Engineering department at VNIT are pretty good with all the basic equipments for research. Library has lots of books and journals which help in PhD work. Campus is big and green, hostels are clean but some buildings feel old. Its okay for studies but could use more modern updates.
