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.

Short and to the Point Review of Vit Chennai
Placements: Approx 85% students get placed with very good packages. Highest package: 54lakhs per annum. Lowest package: 7-8 lakhs per annum. Average package: 4-5 lakhs per annum. Top recruiting companies are Deloitte, TCS, Robert Bosch, Texas Instruments, Schneider Electric, Nokia, etc. Vit is very active in providing internships, it is mandatory for the students to complete at least 2 months of internship, they send their resume to the companies and apply for the internship. Almost 90% of the students in EEE get internships. Recently, Whirlpool, TATA, ford, L & T, Cognizant has provided internships to EEE students. Top roles that are being offered in this course are programming internships, mechatronics, industrial safety, PLC internships, etc.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is really very good, the labs are air conditioned and are well equipped with all the required instruments. There are several auditoriums for all the events going on. There are many lifts in the buildings however because of such big crowd, we have to wait for at least 10-15 minutes for the lift. The classrooms are not airconditioned, it becomes difficult to study in the classrooms some times. The campus is full with greenery all around and clouds here at vit never fail to amaze us with its beauty. The hostel is good. 3 bedded rooms are a bit less spacious however Four beds have enough space. Ac rooms have bunker beds. The mess food is good, they provide a variety of snacks in the evening but they repeat the menu a lot in lunch and dinner. They also provide beverages such as lemonade, buttermilk, hot chocolate, etc and fruits in dinner. There are many cafeterias in the campus and a night canteen open from 9 to 12:30am in night. There is a health center for immediate check up and they take you to a hospital if needed. You can play your favorite sports, there are basket ball court, tennis court, volley ball court, cricket play ground and more. Hostel in time for girls is 8 PM and for boys is 9 PM
Faculty: The teachers are well qualified, however being a north Indian, I sometimes feel less connected to their teaching styles and way of communication. Although, the course curriculum is upto the mark and it makes the students industry ready. With so many assignments and exams, we are made well equipped to cope any difficulty in less time with more efficiency. Each semester has 3 exams. Cat 1 which is a moderate level exam. Cat 2 which is an open notes exam and hence quite tough. FAT which is a final assessment of moderate level. Around 40% marks are required to get passed.
Other: I wish that the mess menu could have more varieties of north Indian cuisine. The campus life is very vibrant, if you know how to manage your time among all the assignments, there are two fests in a year, a tech fest (technovit) and a cultural fest (vibrance) in fmwhuch they call celebrities to perform among us. You will find many couples sitting together in the evening. The campus is quite big. You will have a great life here once you know how to manage your time.

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.
