Course Curriculum Overview :
For ECE, the course curriculum is pretty good. It makes sure to cover a wide range of career foundations throughout the fields of Electronics and Communications. There are research oriented faculties, hence paper publications and patent filing procedures are quite common.
Placement Experience :
Placements are offered in VIT, but the placements are not subjected to individual campuses. Companies come to VIT seeking new employees and as a student you'll be competing with other students across all 4 campuses. Hence the placement seasons are extrememly competitive. As the recession has affected the job market, the expected paclages were lower than previous year's average. But on the brighter side, the number of students getting placed are still maintained, compared to the fall in placement oppurtunities in other colleges.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
Compared to a government college or an average private institution, VIT falls towards a bit higher end of the fee spectrum. There are a few scholarship oppurtunities, but kindly refer to the website as I don't have detailed understanding in how that applies.
Campus Life :
The campus is brimming with clubs, student chapters and fests. The college environment is lively and there'll be some event, workshop or competition happening every week. Furthermore there are 2 fests in VIT Chennai, one being a technical fest (TechnoVIT) and the other being full on cultural (Vibrance).
Admission :
I was in the 2020 batch, so that particular ear VITEEE was not conducted. Hence my admission was solely based on my CBSE and JEE rank. Post-pandemic changes have brought back VITEEE, so from 2021 students were enrolled based on this entrance exam rank.
