Remarks
I always wanted to do B.Tech in CSE. First, I applied to government colleges thru jee main but didn't score enough marks. That's why I appeared for VITEEE and got a relatively good percentage. We needed at least 60 % in 12th for the program. After that, I took admission to the college by visiting the campus for seat allocation. On the counseling day, we submitted our documents and paid fees for the first year. After that, we got our admission letter and took a campus tour.
Course Curriculum Overview
I did B.Tech from CSE because it has the scope and I always wanted to be a software engineer. The faculty: teacher ratio is good in VIT. Generally, for technical classes, we had 45-50 students and for arts, management classes we had 60-70 students. All of our professors are very knowledgeable and hold Ph.D. We had a mixed teaching method with lectures and lab courses as well as Digital assignments. We have 2 CAT's and a FAT throughout the semester along with internal quizzes and assignments. Exams were generally medium to hard in difficulty. So, we had to study a lot but they were mostly easy to pass.
Internships Opportunities
We are required to do at least one internship during our program. We are free to apply for an internship after 2nd year. VIT itself gives several internship opportunities during our 3rd year. I myself got a paid internship at VISA in my 3rd year. Apart from that, I was also a campus ambassador for few companies.
Placement Experience
Placements are very good in VIT. Students get placed in the 4th year. During my last year, we had to register with Pat center of VIT, where we received mentorship and guidance for placements. Placements go on for about 3 months. In 2021 nearly 700 companies came and made around 3000 offers. The average CTC was about 8 Lakhs with the highest going for 45 Lakhs approx. I would say nearly 90% of students appearing for placements get placed generally. I myself got placed in Paypal and got a good job as a software engineer.
Fees and Financial Aid
I had to pay a yearly fee of,50,000. In the first year, I had to pay 2000 as a caution fee and in the last year 5000 as a certificate fee. Apart from this, we didn't have any other fees or charges. VIT does have a scholarship policy for low-income students but I didn't avail any. I got an Internship in my 3rd year with a stipend of 10000.
Campus Life
Our library is very big and well maintained with a large collection of books from all genres. We study a lot in Library during exam times. Classrooms are well equipped and generally spacious. The classroom generally had a blackboard along with projectors and a whiteboard. There are sports facilities for cricket, basketball, and football on the campus. Also, there are facilities for indoor sports like chess, tennis, badminton, table tennis, etc. There are a lot of clubs and societies run by students like robotics club, chess club, nature club, debate club, etc.
