Vels Institute of Science, Technology & Advanced Studies, Chennai

Hindustan University is a better option when compared to Vels Institute. Since you are looking for courses related to Arts and Science, this university will offer you the same with job-oriented courses.

• It offers a triple major in BA that includes English, psychology, and political science. 
• They also offer specialization in BBA apart from the BBA (General). The specializations offered under BBA are aviation management, Hospital and healthcare, and logistics in collaboration with logistics sector skills. 
• B.Com course is offered under various specializations like Banking Management and Applied Accounting. 
• BCA also has specializations in Multimedia and Animation and Database Systems.
• For the B.Sc, HITS offers Avionics Aircraft Maintenance, Fashion Design and Arts, Food Technology, Visual Communication, Cardiovascular Technology, Optometry, and Sports and Anesthesia Technology. 
• The university also gives BLIS, B.Voc in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering, Autotronics, Communication Design, Food Processing Technology, and Textile Design.

Apart from academics, the university provides every opportunity to excel in different extracurricular activities. There are a lot of clubs offering a joyful experience to the student life. 

With such diverse courses, Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science is the best choice to study arts and science courses.

Indian Maritime University (IMU) Chennai is obviously better than Vels University. It has a brand of its own and is known outside of Chennai as well. Vels University, on the other hand, is just like any other university and anyone hardly outside Chennai even knows about it. 

The study environment at Vels University is not at all good though other facilities are good to decent. I would say that if you want to relax and just want a degree after 3-4 years of enjoyment, go to Vels University. Otherwise, IMU Chennai is the one to go for.

One of my friends recently graduated from VEL Tech University and according to him, IT usually gets more companies than other departments such as MECH, EEE, AUTO, and AERO. 

A few students get placed in the core sectors; however, these core sector companies have limited vacancies, and they want students who are experienced (meaning they have held an internship or completed some projects), and they don't want to waste time training freshmen. 

You don't need to look for a job to get better placements; instead, you should master abilities in a specific field better than everyone else, then apply to the firms/companies, and you will almost certainly get hired.

Here is the highlight of the recent placement drive at the institute. 

• The placement average for the institute is 89%.
• The average CTC offered by the institute is 17 LPA. While the highest CTC offered is 28 LPA.
• The major recruiters at the institute are Dell, TCS, Infosys, Amazon, Byju’s, etc. 
• Almost 75% of students participate in internships. 

The institute has a great placement cell that attracts a large number of enterprises with higher packages. In addition, twice-weekly career guidance workshops are held. Professors with advanced degrees are assigned to teach online tests, which are administered under the supervision of a knowledgeable teaching team.

Doing an MCA from Vels University will not be worth it. The college will add nothing to your professional career and the degree will become just another degree which I do not think should be your intention especially when going for a master’s degree.

Following are a few points I would like to mention –

• Infrastructure: The campus is very small and you can literally cover the whole campus within a few minutes. You will not enjoy good campus life.
• Education: There are some extremely talented and experienced teachers. However, very few can guide you properly towards your goal properly.
• Placement:  This is one of the biggest disappointments as not even 10 companies visit the campus even though they claim a 100% placement record.
• Location: It is located at Pallavaram and it is still close to the bus and railway stations. So this is one of the few things I like about the college.
• Sports: The football team of the university regularly win trophies at various tournaments.

If you are still convinced about joining this college then go ahead but I would certainly not suggest you for the same.

My cousin is from this institute, so I think I am eligible to answer your question.

It is a well-established institution with a well-qualified faculty and a placement track record ranging from 60% to 90%. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at the institute is 17 LPA. 

The university has all modern conveniences, such as air-conditioned classrooms/laboratories, a fine canteen, and a pleasant environment. 

However, you have to look out for expenses as if you know it is an expensive university with fewer than 210 days of classes every year. So if you can afford it, then you should definitely go for it.
