Remarks
The College is overall pretty good for Engineering. I graduated from ECE, and I must thank the college management, the faculty staffs, the fellow students in my college to support me all through my engineering career to achieve short goals, such as unders
Entrance Preview
I took AIEEE entrance exam in the year 2010. I got 112426 AIR in General category. I was drawn towards the domain of Electronics and Communication Engineering right since my +2 days. I had to take up this course anyhow, because I wanted to learn. Not qualifying in IIT-JEE, not getting any NIT through AIEEE counseling, and not getting a seat in the only Govt. Engineering College in my state were huge set backs during that time. Then I came to know about this college in Vizag, AP. I collected lots of info from the pass-outs of VITAM, and most of them told that the college is good and provided good environment ( Though all of the passouts of VITAM didn't hold this general opinion).
Course Curriculum Overview
VITAM is affiliated to JNTU Kakinada, which is one of the most renowned universities in AP. So, The course curricula for all the courses are strictly in accordance with the JNTU-defined framework and rules. I didn't find any kind of divergence from the JNTU-defined curriculum throughout my studies there. Talking about research and other meritorious stuffs, VITAM does provide full support to those who are keen. But The general crowd of students are not too keen except a few.
Internships Opportunities
No, The College doesn't provide any kind of internship. But I did a 15-day internship at Vizag Steel Plant, Visakhapatnam. The college gave consent for it, and I learnt pretty much good things there too. There was no stipend. Some of my friends underwent interships at BSNL also. They also learnt good stuffs there and later presented them in the college.
College Events
Tech Fests are organized every year. Freshers' Day celebrations are also organized every year. The Tech Fests have proved to be really bigger in the past, as I have observed. This is one college in this region where students have always come to participate in various events from various other colleges nearby.
Fee Structure And Facilities
For Management Quota students ( students in this category are generally from states other than AP), fee is around 90, 000 INR per year. For Local students coming from EAMCET, Half the fee is generally re-imbursed by the Government of AP. So, The Fee structure may seem to be feasible for localites while it may seem somewhat expensive for the students from other states.
Fees and Financial Aid
Major Banks readily have given loans to students in the past, and I know many of the students availing the scholarship from the Goverment of AP also.
Campus Life
Male-to-Female ratio might be around 10:3 (roughly). The College encourages students to participate in various cultural events in Fests and Freshers' Day celebrations. Labs are pretty good, and upto the mark and meet the standards set by the NBA Accredition. The college was accredited by NBA upto 2011. The college is a bit low on sports. The college doesn't have any Robotics club as such. But during our studies, we actively participated in Robotics Workshops and Robotics Competitions in the likes of AU and IIT-KGP. This was because there was good exposure to such things and faculties were always guiding us and lighting our ways to do these extra things beyond our studies.
Hostel Facilities
The college management provided us Hostel only in the first year. Later, They stopped providing hostel facilities at all. So, for now There is no Hostel from the College management side. The college is situated at a distance of around 35 KMs from the city
Alumni/Alumna
I didn't have any connections with the alumni. But The college management does keep all the records of various alumnis, and these contacts do come in handy many a times.
Exam Structure
The JNTU Exam structure changes with every regulation. But The general structure consists of 2 mid exams in each semester, out of which only the one with the best score in the paper is considered for inclusion in the final calculation. This mid exam carri
Faculty
Well, That's a good thing to answer. And I would point out that I was fortunate enough to spend my 4 Years of Engineering under the terrific guidance and mentorship of some of the very good faculties, who are not only passionate in their areas which they
