Course Curriculum Overview

I wanted to do BTech computer Science as it is a relevant course in this technical era In VIT there are about 2000 students in Computer science department.Each class consists of 60 students with a faculty for each subject. The faculties are well equipped and we have Fully Flexible Credit System where we can choose our faculties. The exams are timely .We have three exams in a sem. And the structure of exams is well defined.Relative grading is a boon for us.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fees structure depends on the category you get admission in. Categories are divided on the basis of VITEEE rank. There are 5 categories and category 1 pays an amount of 2 lakhs.Vit regularly sends mails about scholarships across India.

The infrastructure is pretty good. We have two major fests- Technovit which is a technical and sports fest and Vibrance which is a cultural fest.There is an international level library and the classes are well lit and ventilated. There are about 80-100 clubs and chapters in VIT

4.5

The hostel facility is pretty good. There are different kinds of rooms from 6 bed non-ac to 2 bed ac. The hostel fees depend on the room selected by the student. The room allotment depends on the hostel rank. The mess menu is decided by the students and the food is tasty and prepared hygienically

A Good Learning Experience with Opportunities for Growth

Likes

Good campus infrastructure with decent classrooms and facilities.
Friendly faculty members and supportive classmates.
Good opportunities to participate in events, activities and improve technical skills.

Dislikes

Placement training and career guidance could be improved.

Placement Experience:

The college provides placement opportunities through its placement cell, with students generally preparing for recruitment during their pre-final and final years. Various companies offer opportunities in IT, software development, business and other fields. The placement support helps students improve their communication, technical and interview skills. However, more reputed companies and higher-paying opportunities could improve the placement experience. My goal after completing the degree is to secure a good job, gain industry experience and continue developing my technical skills.

The College that Balances Academics, Opportunities and Overall Growth

Likes

The college provides numerous opportunities to participate in hackathons, technical events, project competition, and cultural activities. This gives students a chance to explore their interest.
Faculty members are approachable and students can interact with them comfortably regarding academics, projects, and other college - related activities. Good staff interaction makes it easier to clarify doubt and seek guidance.
The availability of both technical and cultural events gives students to take break, socialize, discover new interest. Students can improve their problem-solving, teamwork, communication, and presentation skills by participating in competitions.

Placement Experience:

Easwari offers placement training and oppotunities with recruiters like TCS, Infosys, Amazon, Accenture and Goldmann Sachs. Reported 2026 statistics include 50LPA highest package and 98.25% placement rate. I aim to become Software developer and will build my skills through projects and internships.

The training provided is very exquisite and some of the trainings start as early as 1st year. 2026 highest package was 55LPA. Many companies like from product companies like Microsoft, Capgemini to service based companies like TCS, INFOSYS etc.. visit our campus for regular placements.

My insights on Vit Chennai

I applied for very less college.since my cut off was low the possibility of me getting any Anna university affiliated colleges were less. So i wrote entrance exam for Amrita University and Vit. I did get Amrita but felt Vit had better exposure. They were lot of reasons as to why I chose this college. Of most the colleges I searched this had mechanical with specialisation courses. Doing a minor in something will make me a step ahead of every other mechanical engineer. I also compared the curriculum with many institutions,this was far by the best with perfect exposure. They have variety of other non graded courses to help me focus on my hobbies and interest. Their tie ups with many foreign institutions and industries will be an advantage for me if I use it in the right way. Again the only way of getting into Vit is through their entrance exam VITEEE. Since my cut off was low I had to rely on these entrance exams. Based on the rank obtained in the entrance we will be allocated a counselling phase and through that we can choose our respective course....Read More
