Good social community but highly crowded nature.
Placements: Almost 100% of the students who opted for sitting in the placements got placed in a company. The highest package of 1 Cr per annum was offered to a CSE student and 3 LPA is the lowest package, while the average package offered is around 8 LPA. The top recruiters for electrical students are TCS, INFOSYS, and Honeywell. 60 percent of the students do their internship, which is unpaid and offered by VIT. 35 percent do internships privately, and only 5 percent receive internships with a stipend from the companies. The roles differ by the vacancies in companies.
Infrastructure: All the labs are equipped with high-speed internet facilities, and there are a lot of lab components for important core subjects. Classrooms consist of 4 boards, two blackboards, and two for marker usage. There is one projector per classroom with dual speakers installed around the corners. Facilities inside the hostel include two cupboards, one bunker bed space, and a chair. The quality of food goes up with the pay scale, and for the lowest mess option available, the quality is decent. Apollo Hospital has a space on the campus providing basic treatment.
Faculty: 90 percent of the teachers are knowledgeable, but the remaining 10 percent are not up to the mark. The course curriculum is highly relevant. The lab components for the core subjects really do make the students industry-ready. The semester exam questions are medium, but the correction is highly strict, which makes the pass percentage around 90 percent.
Other: I chose this course because of the lab components provided here to learn a subject practically. If the courses offered had faculty members of the same major, it would be much better. There are two events: one is a technical one that comes up during the month of August and the other is an annual fest that comes up in March. The campus is really crowded as it has attracted a lot of people. Scholarships are given as waivers to the VITEEE toppers by the institute. Extracurricular activities include badminton and basketball as the main sports.

VIT - A place to learn and grow.
Placements: Nearly 90% of students got placed in our course. The highest salary package offered is around 24 LPA. The average salary package offered is 8 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is around 4 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Google and Amazon. They provide entry-level jobs. As a fresher, I don't know how many percentage of students got internships. Other than that, placements are pretty good.
Infrastructure: Our college provides all the necessary facilities. Every class has a projector, speakers, mic, and Wi-Fi access for all students in both the college as well as the hostel. Our college library is a great place if students are seeking a silent environment to study. It has a large amount of books from journals to fictional books. Our college also has every kind of lab needed, and it contains a variety of standard tools and machines to practice with. The infrastructure of the hostel is great but the quality of the food available is not up to the standards. Medical facilities are decent and there is a large number of sports and games to play in our college like basketball, football, table tennis, etc.
Faculty: All teachers present here are well-knowledgeable. They teach students in a way where one would get an interest in the topic. The course curriculum is relevant and provides a fair amount of knowledge and practice to make students industry-ready. Semester exams are pretty hard to score high marks but it is pretty enough to clear the course. The pass percentage is around 95% for our course.
Other: I chose this course because it has value in the future as the semiconductor industry is developing rapidly. As a fresher, I can't say anything about improvements until I get experience around here. Also, our college holds many kinds of events and fests like Vibrance, Technovit, and many more. Campus life here is great. There are many spots to hang out here. Our college provides scholarships that are approved by the government.

Old and under construction hostel blocks.
Placements: Most of the students that go through the placement procedures get placed in one way or another. Mass recruitments, such as 3-5 LPA, are most common. Packages above 15 LPA are very rare and only 2–3 students from each branch get placed in such companies. Overall, the placement rate is high compared to other colleges.
Infrastructure: My college has excellent facilities, especially the exquisitely constructed academic buildings that add to the campus's visual appeal. The campus's overall superb architecture fosters an atmosphere that is ideal for study and exploration. The college library, a three-story building with a sizable book collection that guarantees students have access to all the materials they need for their degrees, is one of the highlights. This library is a great academic resource for students, offering a productive and peaceful environment for research and study. The library is accessible even at late-night times. An additional benefit on campus is a health centre that provides free medical care and prescription drugs to students. The availability of the health services and their free price show how dedicated the college is to the welfare of its students. The hostel's services, however, show an important gap in class. The food in the oldest block on campus, where I stayed, was superior to that of the other blocks, even though it was the holder. Regretfully, the living circumstances are not comparable. On the other hand, three brand-new hostel blocks have just been built, but they are still under construction and not yet completely functional. In spite of this, students are already being housed in them, which raises questions regarding their comfort and safety while visiting. All things considered, my college's academic and medical facilities are excellent, but the dorms could use some serious work. The institution can guarantee a higher standard of living with sustained investment and attention to the completion of the new dorm blocks.
Faculty: I have currently finished the second year of my degree. I have had several faculty members who have lectured me. Out of these, 2/3 of the faculty members are exceptionally good and have good subject knowledge. However, one-third of the faculty members that I had didn't even know how to speak English properly. Even though most of the teachers have good subject knowledge and will help you if you go to them personally,. Their contribution in classes is very minimal. 99 percent of the studying you do in college is by yourself, and that includes finding the materials and everything. Most of the teachers won't even give proper lecture notes. The passing of exams purely depends on the faculty members. If the faculty feels like passing, everyone will pass. If they feel like failing more than half of the class, they can.

The eligibility says nothing about Diploma. I personally haven't seen anyone join by lateral entry in Chennai’s campus. It would be better to call and ask, either from Chennai campus or Vellore campus. You can find their contact information online.
