VIT Vellore Departments and Schools

Both IIIT Ranchi and VIT Vellore can help you build a strong profile if you want to pursue your MBA abroad after your B.Tech, but they have different benefits:

Quick Comparison Table

Good placements and a government-approved degree that enhances educational credibility are two benefits of pursuing an MBA from MBA Abroad View IIIT Ranchi. But apart from its greater alumni community and more structured international exposures, VIT Vellore has experiences that will be useful while seeking an MBA abroad, particularly through networking and word-of-mouth recommendations.

 – In case you would like to choose, pick IIIT Ranchi: lower fees and improved placements, a government degree (occasionally useful for MBA or scholarship exams), and greater personal attention are outcomes of having fewer students.

 – In case you would like to choose, pick VIT Vellore, in consideration of international programs and transfer possibilities, a large, engaged alumni community overseas, and further assistance to construct an MBA record through internships, activities, and clubs.

Although all three of these colleges are well-renowned for their engineering courses, there are certain factors that particularly interested me to opt for VIT Vellore. I am currently pursuing B.Tech CSE at VIT.

1. VIT Vellore ranks excellently in the NIRF Engineering rankings, even better than the other two colleges mentioned by you. In the 2023 NIRF engineering rankings, VIT Vellore ranked 11th. 
2. VIT Vellore is located near Chennai and Bangalore. This allows the students of VIT to gain the much needed exposure which allows them to grab good career opportunities after their graduation.
3. Academically, both VIT and Thapar are equally placed. VIT offers good academic opportunities, but the North Indian might face some cultural shock.
4. In terms of faculty, Thapar has an advantage. But even VIT has some really good teachers.

These factors made me interested in joining VIT Vellore. I would suggest you consider VIT for your BTech as it offers good infrastructure and ample opportunities.

I am a student of B.Tech IT at VIT Vellore. According to me, VIT Vellore is a better option for IT as compared to MAIT because of the following reasons-

VIT Vellore offers top class infrastructure and opportunities for its students. The campus is visited by top recruiting companies each year because of which IT placements are quite good for VIT. These companies offer good packages to students during placements. The college offers ample exposure to IT students in the form of internship offers, training offers, and student exchange programs. The IT companies that visit VIT Vellore for placements are- TCS, Wipro, Infosys, and Cognizant, among others.

Thus, I would recommend you join VIT Vellore for B.Tech IT instead of MAIT. 

As a student of VIT Vellore, I find myself eligible to only comment on my college.

VIT Vellore is a private college with top class infrastructure and other facilities. It is ranked highly in the NIRF 2023 engineering rankings, at 11th position. The infrastructure of VIT is top notch, with well equipped and modern laboratories.

VIT offers really good IT placements, and the college faculty is highly qualified and experienced. The students at VIT are given plenty of opportunities in the form of internships, student exchange programs, and training offers. 

Apart from all these pros of joining VIT, the con is that its fees are quite high. The fee structure is divided into several categories, and is different for each engineering branch. But the minimum academic fee is approx. INR 2 lakh for the first year (excluding hostel and mess charges).

Here is a detailed video on VIT Vellore for your reference-

Despite its high fees, VIT offers good infrastructure, faculty, academics, extracurriculars, placements, and brand name. This is why, I would recommend you consider VIT Vellore for your engineering studies.

I am a B.Tech CSE student at VIT Vellore, while my elder brother studies at BIT Sindri. Therefore, I can offer a more unbiased insight into why I chose VIT Vellore for my engineering studies-

1. Infrastructure- Both the institutions have a huge campus, but in terms of infrastructure, VIT Vellore is better. Its labs are modern and well equipped, whereas BIT’s labs are old and require maintenance. 
2. Placements- VIT delivers better packages. Moreover, it is a better choice for IT placements. On the other hand, BIT Sindri delivers better core placements with companies like Tata Steel, Tata Hitachi and JSW visiting the departments for recruitments.
3. Exposure- VIT offers really good exposure to its students in the form of internships, student exchange programs and training. At BIT Sindri, internship offers are a rare phenomenon. Tata Steel does offer PPOs to BIT students.
4. Faculty- The faculty at VIT is more experienced and qualified.

The yearly B.Tech course fee at VIT Vellore is approx. INR 2 lakhs, while that in BIT Sindri is approx. INR 20,000. But VIT offers much better infrastructural facilities and exposure to make up for the huge fee difference. 

Due to these reasons, my brother suggested that I pursue my B.Tech CSE at VIT Vellore instead of BIT Sindri. 

I graduated from VIT Vellore in 2023, with a B.Tech degree in ECE branch. 

You’ll probably come across people who’ll tell you that low ranking NITs like NIT Agartala, Srinagar, etc. still carry the ‘NIT’ tag, and thus, they have a higher brand value compared to VIT Vellore. However, that is not the case.

My sister is currently studying at NIT Agartala, and according to her, VIT Vellore has a much higher industry reputation and a bigger brand name in comparison to lower ranking NITs. 

I have personally come across NITians who were unplaced after graduation. But as far as VIT Vellore is concerned, it delivers a high placement record each year. Many of the NITs suffer from poor infrastructure and shortage of facilities because of lack of funding and bad administration. As a private institution, VIT Vellore does not suffer in these areas. 

These are some reasons why I chose VIT Vellore for my B.Tech despite getting lower ranking NITs after 12th. If you are happy with the location, and you get your desired branch at VIT Vellore, I would recommend you to join this institution. 

The IITs, NITs and IIITs have a certain brand name attached to them which makes students feel that other engineering colleges might be inferior to them. However, this may not always be the case. 

VIT Vellore is a reputed private institution, and it is better than IIIT Vadodara in many aspects-

• VIT Vellore offers a greater variety of courses to choose from as compared to IIIT Vadodara.
• Infact, VIT offers specialization courses in various engineering branches.
• VIT Vellore was established much prior to IIIT Vadodara, which is why it has a much stronger industry reputation and alumni network.
• VIT Vellore is ranked 11th in the NIRF Engineering 2023 rankings, while IIIT Vadodara does not make it into the top 100 list.
• VIT has a rich extracurricular culture. The campus regularly organizes sports events, makeathons, hackathons, designing events, cultural events etc.
• Some of the VIT faculty members are ex-IITians.
• VIT is a private institution and has top class infrastructure facilities.

These are some reasons why I feel VIT Vellore is much better than IIIT Vadodara. Both the colleges will offer you good learning, but the exposure and opportunities provided by VIT Vellore are unparalleled.

I am a student at VIT Vellore, so I can only comment on my college. Here are some reasons why I chose VIT Vellore for my engineering degree-

1. Academics- VIT Vellore follows FFCS (Fully Flexible Credit System) for academics. As the name suggests, this system of education is very flexible as one gets to choose one’s subjects and faculty based on the opinion gathered from friends and seniors. One can either take morning lectures or evening lectures as per one’s choice.
2. Extracurricular- There is always some activity going on in the VIT campus at all times. There are multiple clubs at VIT Vellore, and one can become a member of any of them.
3. Campus Life- The campus life of VIT is full of fun experiences. Apart from the flexible academic system, one gets to live in a campus that is simply beautiful. Other than that, every six months the university organizes tech and cultural fests. I have been a part of Gravitas and Riviera, and both of them offered extraordinary experiences. 
4. Placements- As for engineering placements, a lot of companies visit the VIT Vellore campus for recruitments. Then there are several IT companies that intake candidates from all engineering branches at VIT Vellore. These are- Accenture, Wipro, Cognizant, Infosys, and TCS. Apart from job placements, VIT Vellore gives deserving students an opportunity of foreign internships. 

These reasons are enough to explain why I preferred VIT Vellore for my engineering studies. I would recommend you consider VIT as it has a lot of opportunities and facilities to offer. 

VIT offers BTech courses in around 20 specializations. Some of the popular specializations at VIT for BTech courses are AI, Cyber Security, ML, CSE, etc. The BTech fees is divided into 2 groups which is as follows.
