VNIT Nagpur, like other NITs, is an Institute of National Importance.
It is located in Nagpur, so you can easily access all the basic facilities from there. But as far as campus facilities are concerned, they are very poor.
Both the college canteens available for Engineering students are kept in an unhygienic condition. Only a few of the menu items are actually available, and this is the situation at all times. A single playground is available for all the college students. So during inter-NIT practices, one can not possibly play one’s favorite sports over there.
The Badminton and TT courts however, are quite well developed. Other than that, the college campus is well maintained and covered in greenery. The Health Center within the campus is open for students, without any extra charges. An ambulance is also provided by the college in the health center. The maintenance fee for the center is included within the college fee.
In spite of the various shortcomings, you’ll enjoy your time at VNIT, especially the hostel life.
I am a student of B.Tech Mechanical at VNIT Nagpur, so I can’t tell you anything about the Mechanical at SVNIT.
VNIT has a good reputation for its Mechanical. Most of the renowned alumni of our college are from this branch. Here’s a few of their names- Dr. Dinesh Keskar (President of Boeing India and VP of Boeing International Trading), Ashish Saraf (Vice President at Airbus), Hemant Karkare, Satyendra Pakhale and Sanjay Joshi. The faculty for Mechanical is good, and the department offers good lab facilities as well. The senior- junior interaction is also good at the department.
Though I do not know much about SVNIT, I expect that its Mechanical department must be at par with the one at VNIT. Do a thorough research before deciding between either of the colleges.
VNIT Nagpur has four girls’ hostels in total- Girls’ Hostel Old, Hostel 10, Girls’ Hostel New and Kalpana Chawla Hostel.

In reality, VNIT Nagpur does not stand up to its reputation. Being a student of Metallurgy at VNIT, I can shed some light on the life of students in my department-
Based on my experience, I would say that the life of metallurgy students isn’t good at VNIT Nagpur.
VNIT Nagpur has one of the best Metallurgy Departments in India. The college offers a good campus, and Nagpur is a pleasant city to live in.
The department faculty is good, and labs are well-equipped. The problem lies in the branch, and not the college. The requirement of metallurgists is low in India. Because of this, the scenario is poor for core metallurgy placements.
Tata Steel and JSW do not recruit B.Tech Metallurgy students from VNIT. However, non core companies come in and fill the gap. Brands like Capgemini, L&T Infotech, etc. give equal opportunities to B.Tech Metallurgy students.
VNIT Nagpur offers very few core placements in Metallurgy. However, it offers a decent faculty and other facilities to its B.Tech Metallurgy students.
In comparison to MNNIT, MANIT and other colleges with similar cutoffs, VNIT Nagpur is better for B.Tech Electrical.
The Electrical faculty of VNIT consists of highly experienced teachers. The course curriculum is well defined, and contains one Electronics subject for every semester. The department labs are well equipped for use.
The department records good placements, and brands like Siemens, Reliance, Bajaj, Pepsico, SunPharma, etc. visit for recruiting B.Tech EEE students. Sometimes, PSUs also visit the department for placements.Core companies offer around 6 LPA and PSUs offer around 17 LPA (including allowances) to B.Tech EEEstudents. Many IT companies visiting the campus are open for EEE students.
The campus life and college environment are good, and various events take place throughout the year. There are numerous clubs on campus.
Thus, VNIT Nagpur is a good option for B.Tech EEE.
VNIT Nagpur is constantly improving from the past few years. You should be proud of yourself for managing to get in.
As an alumni of this institute, I will be giving some valuable advice to you-
Study well and make the most of your first year at VNIT Nagpur. You’ll remember this period for the rest of your life, so make it worthwhile.
B.Tech Chemical at VNIT Nagpur offers good faculty, decent facilities and decent placements.
The faculty of B.Tech Chemical is highly qualified. Our professors have studied from IITs, IISc, and even abroad. Most of our labs are well equipped, barring some. Our curriculum is better than most colleges. The department seniors and research scholars are very helpful.
The department students grab paid internships right from their second year. Our department witnesses one of the highest number of placements, and students get jobs in both core and non core companies. Aditya Birla Group, Tata Consulting Engineers Limited, Godrej, Hindustan Unilever Limited, ONGC, etc. are some of the top brands that recruit B.Tech Chemical students from VNIT Nagpur.
Apart from studies, our department performs really well in sports and extracurriculars.
Thus, VNIT is a decent option for B.Tech Chemical.
To compare two institutes, you need to consider various factors. A few of such parameters are briefed below.

Other than that, you can also choose a college which is closer to your hometown, if necessary. That way you can save valuable travel time and visit home during holidays.
