Advantages - Scholarships, Timings and Teacher's Support.

Infrastructure: Facility members are good. There is a Central Library incorporated with a digital library, which is useful for the students. Food in the canteen is good. The college is not involved much in sports. Sports events are not informed beforehand otherwise they are good. If you're prepared then you can easily win in sports.

Our college is good in all aspects.

Infrastructure: In this college, Wi-Fi is available in the department. The hostel is not good in both food and facility. The food served in the canteen is good. In the hostel, no one is going to take care of students' health, because there are no medical facilities. The food served is South Indian, and the mess is working.

It is a good college particularly for this department as it received NBA accreditation.

Infrastructure: It provides all laboratories regarding our subject, well-designed equipment, Wi-Fi facilities, air-conditioner facility. But for big equipment like CT, MRI, students move to a hospital visit to learn about the website. Students have MatLab licenses installed, new computers, equipment, and all those.

Review of VELS School of Engineering.

Infrastructure: As the biotech batch was started only in 2019, there were only a few facilities and infrastructure for us to do our project. Classrooms were well spacious, and the library was top-notch, which is my favourite place in the entire college. We can utilise our free time to develop skills and educate ourselves in various fields in the library. Our digital library is world-class.

Absolutely dissatisfied because of the faculty, no placements, no sports opportunity.

Infrastructure: The college internet is not so good. Labs don't have enough equipment so that all students can perform experiments. Classrooms are somewhat okay and the library infrastructure is superb but most of the books are old dated and out of edition. I was not a hostel student. There are two grounds in the college but you don't get to play any sports as they are occupied for vehicle parking.
