'A home away from home' concludes everything.

Placements: The placements were pretty good this season. The maximum package offered was 24.5 lakhs by DE Shaw. Along with it, PayPal also offered 14 lakhs per annum. IT companies who came for mass recruitment recruited almost 70% of the graduates which is a greater mark as compared with other big universities in the city.

An awesome college for learning and growing

Placements: The placement of my senior batch is still going on. Since i am from the mechanical background and I am going to sit for the placements next year, I am interested in what is happening in the placements this year. Till now dream companies of electrical and electronics branches have come. Currently, the placements for TCS, Infosys, and other IT companies are going on. Dream companies want high grades and technical skills. IT companies too have raised the bar for the selection. The placement this ye...

Great placement opportunities at VIT University

Placements: There was 100% placement for our batch. There are numerous companies that visited the campus during the placement season be it Google, Microsoft, De Shaw, Flipkart or mass recruiters like Accenture, Wipro and Cognizant. The average package of our batch was 5-6 lakhs per annum, 12-15 lakhs per annum being the highest.

Really good infrastructure and facilities. Dream placements for those who deserve.

Placements: The placements are good. This year, Amazon took 3-4 students from the ECE branch for 26 lakhs per annum. Others were offered a minimum of 20 lakhs. It mostly depends on the in-depth knowledge and performance of the students in the placement exams conducted by the companies. The companies want students with expertise in their branches. In addition to this, coding is mandatory for the students to get good placements. Not just this branch but all other branch students were also placed in the dream...

Best food in India, highly qualified faculties. The ratio of placements is less.

Placements: Fiat, Escorts, Titan, Ford, SKF, Futures First, etc. took my seniors last year. Honda took 1 student from both Vellore and Chennai campuses. The core placements ratio is very less. Also, most of the companies like TVS take students who are 9 pointers, and Bosche takes the students who are 9 or 9.5. Again, placements are easy but getting a dream company is difficult here.

Something out of self experience.

Placements: Placement training and opportunities for campus selection are plentiful and the process of placement is encouraging, experience generating and helpful in creating a better personality for the professional years. There is a high scope of getting placed. If not under dream companies, some employment of decent package is an assured thing at VIT.

Well organised curriculum with helpful faculty and state of art infrastructure

Placements: Placements were pretty good with almost everyone getting placed in more than one company. The highest package would be Rs. 21 lpa offered to computer science students. 40-50% students got internships. The roles offered include various types of entry level jobs in software and core technologies.

Placements: The placement season is very good at VIT. All the top MNCs come to recruit such as Amazon, Paypal, DeShaw, CodeNation, Directi, Cisco, SAP Labs, HP, DELL, Tapzo, Morgan-Stanley and much more. It is believed that if you are from IT and CSE departments, then you might be getting placed in the first 2 months of the placement season. The placement season starts from Mid July and continues until May. The companies are divided into 3 categories- mass, dream (5-10 LPA) and super dream (>10 LPA). Studen...

The best 4 years in my life.

Placements: Placements are very good. In the final year, we have every company for placement. The students who didn't have a backlog got a job. The highest package was Rs. 16 LPA and the lowest was Rs. 3.5 LPA. Most of the students got international internship programme. The average stipend is around Rs. 18k pm. Most of the MNCs visited every day throughout our final year.

Good campus life, well-versed faculty and plenty of opportunities

Placements: As I am in the final year right now, placements are good so far. There are plenty of opportunities for the CSE branch and ECE branch students. As most of the companies which visit our campus are software-based. The average number of companies visit our campus is 2-3. As per the trend, I prefer anyone to join CSE and any other CSE-related branch with some specifications.

A place to learn, maybe a chance to grow

Placements: The placement months saw a wide range of companies visiting the campus. Large packages were offered for computer science students and a decent package was offered to mechanical students. Infosys, Cognizant, Maruti Suzuki, TCS, LnT Infotech, Honeywell, etc. were some of the companies that visited the campus. The college recorded 100% placements.

VIT Chennai- as seen and experienced.

Placements: Our placements have recently started therefore I cannot say much about that, but as far as the senior batch is concerned, if you had no failing subjects (back log), then you sure could sit for placements. The highest package was around 23 LPA CTC. Lowest was 3.25 LPA. Average package was around 5-6 LPA. Companies ranged from Microsoft, Adobe to Wipro, TCS, Infosys and Cisco. All the students got placed if not in product companies, then service companies. The college makes no efforts to provide...

VIT: a place to learn and a chance to grow. A better place for learning.

Placements: In VIT there is 100% placement. In mechanical, our seniors got placed in very reputed companies like (Renault, Nissan, SKF Bearing, Carrier etc). The highest salary paid was 24 lakh, which was a super dream offer from Cisco R&D. Most of the placed students were given R&D or projects to work on. Almost 80% out of those who applied from the college got internships. As it's a reputed institution, there were no rejections and stipends were given to fully paid interns. Mytacs was a company which had...

VIT is a place to learn and a chance to grow with ample resources.

Placements: The recruitments from big players like TCS, Infosys, Cognizant, Wipro were cut to half when compared with our senior batch. But this time, VIT had invited many dream and super dream companies to minimize the difference. I guess the highest salary is a whopping 28 lpa and the least is 2 lpa. Most of the companies are hiring as interns and converting them to full-time employees. So, I would definitely give a 5 star in terms of placements but the only irksome factor is you need to go to the main ca...

Overall, an unforgettable experience.

Placements: Our batch's placements have just started and 2 companies (Honda R&D and Johnson Controls India Private Limited) have already come. Placements for our seniors were decent as quite a few students got placed in good companies and for the rest of the people, mass companies were the saviour. Around 85-90% students got placed. The highest package in mechanical was greater than 10 LPA(lakhs per annum). The average salary was around 4.5-5 lakhs and the lowest salary was 3 lakhs. Data science companies, ...

The honest review of vit Chennai should you join or not

Placements: Seniors say that "forget the tension of placements if you are a CSE student". The college will make us capable of finding a placement and will ensure that all the CSE students are placed along with students of other branches like ECE, EEE, ECM, etc. We have a record of the largest placements in the world and around 200 companies visited the campus for placements, so don't worry about placements as you will get placed, but the package depends on you for the CSE branch. ...

Good in placements, satisfactory faculty, really good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: Placements were too good in this college. It is just that we have to clear every subject without backlog. The interaction with faculty members will help students a lot. If our CGPA is above 8.00, we will get dream companies and if it is less than 7, we will get a package of around 3 to 4 lakhs.

Dissatisfied with placements (mechanical). Other than that, everything is great.

Placements: For mechanical, placement is not good. Most of the students get placement in IT, sales and marketing companies. CS students have immense opportunity though. The problem is that because there are more than enough students in a particular branch, so even though most of the very renowned companies visit the campus, all the students don't get placed in core companies.
