I am satisfied because of good placements in 2018.

Placements: Placements in the college are decent but do not expect high salary packages. Overall, the average salary package offered is 2 LPA. However, you will get many opportunities to gain knowledge of chemistry subjects. This institute is new and is strongly increasing its strength day by day. Overall, the college is very good at providing a job for freshers.

VISTAS is the best college with the best fee structure.

Placements: Placements in our college are very good. BPO companies visit the campus for placements, but we are expecting core companies for placements. The college trains students to perform better in campus interviews. Thus, there are many good things to study in VELS University. Faculty members are very friendly with students.

Our college is neither too good nor too bad.

Placements: There are no placements for my department yet, but for other departments, many companies came for campus interviews; this is because the course was started just three years ago. As far as my department is concerned, we are told that we might get a few companies this year.

A good college and nice teaching.

Placements: The college has good placement facilities for students. Companies like HCL, HP and TCS recruit students in good numbers. They select students based on their skills and help them to bring out most of their talents. Companies this year were quite selective and hired students who can cope up with company requirements and help in the further development of the company.

Definite Enjoyment with Education.

Placements: Placements for my field are mostly from BPO's (call centres). Companies like Ford have also visited. Roles such as beginner or learner for big companies have been given to the students.

Overall, not much satisfied with the college.

Placements: The placements are better than other colleges. I got 3, 4 offer letters. A lot of companies are coming here, and college will teach how to attend the interview and everything. They will fix the target to give jobs. It is a good one. They conduct two weeks training for placements. They are inviting more companies for the sake of students.

Complex fees structure,Less trained faculties, Poor Placements,Infrastructure

Placements: Poor placements for Computer Science and engineering department. The people who got placed are placed by BPO's and call centres mostly. The highest placement offer 32,000 per month for MBA department. In the engineering department the placements are not too good. Big Companies like Amazon came to recruit but no one was recruited. Very few students were placed. Less than 5 students got job letter in our department salary was between 8,000 to 15,000 per month as per my knowledge.

VISTAS - good for certification and exposure in core level knowledge. Not good placement.

Placements: There is a poor placement record. Initially, they placed the students in some of the tier 3 companies and some voice process industry. I am the one who placed in one medium scale industry (dong Sung Pvt Ltd) and offer letter is not issued properly. Instead, they gave one dummy offer letter from some consultancy which is not even existed properly. I waited for nearly 4 months after that I am not getting proper information from placement department after I left my college.

Recommending this college at the rate of 80% for day scholars and 65% for hostellers.

Placements: The college is not just like engineering colleges to hook you up with a job via placements. Once you finish your course, it is your own ability to suit yourself further. An average of 70% to 80% students gets through the final year. Anyhow, the students who entered the college through counselling may get around Rs. 1,000 to 2,000 as a stipend I guess, and I am not aware of the current scenario as you can only get through NEET exams.

Absolutely not recommended for education.

Placements: The placements are not good. In our batch, around 4-5 people were placed out of 120 people that too in tier-3 companies. The highest salary offered was Rs. 30,000 per month and the lowest salary was Rs. 18,000 per month. The placement cell was formed during our final year but got closed before our batch finishes off.

I suggest everyone to join.

Placements: Most of the students got placements in the senior batch's even the second year students and the first year student gets a part-time job in the college campus itself. All the staff motivate students to get placements. The staffs want all the students must be placed in the campus placements only.

Dissatisfied with the ability of this college of securing a cadet future.

Placements: Please don't expect much. Generally, the placements are about 9-11%, that too after lots of shortlisting. We have just 2-3 companies visiting each year, offering a maximum of 5 placements. Only one company takes those 5 students, and the rest take 2 to 3 students. These companies include K-LINE and MOLTA. Considering B.Sc, the conditions are better. We are expecting one more company to arrive.

A very good institute where you can enjoy your college life and at the same time learn well.

Placements: Core MNC companies come for placements. They offer a package of Rs. 2,30,000 per annum at an average. So, don't need to worry about the placements. There is no internship available for B.Pharmacy. The recruitment offer comes from production, quality assurance, quality control, and marketing basis.

A lot of MNC companies recruit students from this university. Out of 100 students, 20 can easily get selected in campus interviews.

There are no disappointment in anything. If you can study well you will achieve your placement.

Placements: 3-4 companies visiting the campus interview and get up to 10 placements for each company. The selected students get scholarship of last semester fees in hand. Only the top 20 students can enter the interview. There should not include any arrears to enrol on the campus. To enrol in the campus interview, the students should withstand above 80% marks.

Truth of School of Maritime Studies, VELS University

Placements: In a batch of 80, 5 on campus placement through K-Line shipping management and 3-4 outside through MOL Shipping. Placement is very less. Others have to pay to agents from outside and may contact companies directly which is fairly tough. Last year, only 4 were placed on campus for B.E. and 10 for B. Sc.
