Thank you

A few of my friends graduated from Saveetha University and Vel Tech University and based on their experience I will say Saveetha University is better than the Vel Tech engineering college.

Saveetha University is the best because the college environment is excellent and has good faculty, good communications skills trainers. The college infrastructure is good with more labs, good teaching, and a friendly environment. The teaching methodology employed is quite good. There are only smart board classes. 

Placements are way better at Saveetha University as compared to Val Tech. According to the recent placement trends around 91% of students get placed from Saveetha University. 

Saveetha University is overall a better choice in terms of infrastructure, faculties, and placements.

Firstly, clear your mind regarding the ranking of Vel Tech University. It is still a deemed university which means it is still under development. The university does not hold any Asian Rank or even the country-wise rank, but it holds a decent rank in Tamil Nadu. The university is considered better than many North Indian Universities. 

Overall Vel Tech University has a good reputation among students and is considered good for academics and the rules that are being implemented here.

Lastly, we can conclude that do not look much into rank as nowadays paying more and attaining higher rank is not very difficult. Weigh the pros and cons of the university and then take your decision.

Being a Deemed-to-be-university, Veltech University is quite lenient when compared to other private universities. It has an amazing infrastructure.

Regarding the rules at the university, it is important to carry ID cards, formals, and various other things. You will not be allowed to enter the college premises if you are not wearing formals which include shoes, shirt, pants, and no jeans, T-shirt. 

Previously the classrooms had a blackboard, a platform for the staff, and no whitewashed walls. But now the university has improved it with Air-conditioning in every classroom. They’re not as big and developed as SRM but their classroom infrastructure is still remarkable as compared to its previous setup.

I have a few friends from Vel Tech University and according to them, it is a decent college with affordable course fees. A B.E from Val Tech will cost you around 2 lakhs. 

Mainly IT companies visit the college campus to recruit students from IT, CSE, EEE branches. So, you will get decent placement opportunities. You will be placed if your aptitude and spoken English are good.

According to the recent placement highlights, around 90% of students are placed. The highest package last year was 12 LPA. The college has a placement cell that invites a number of companies. Some of the major recruiters visiting the campus placements are Google, Capgemini, Amazon, Vivo, etc. 

Career guidance programs are conducted twice a week. Some highly skilled professors are allocated for teaching online exams which are conducted under the guidance of the smart teaching staff.

My brother is from SRM, So I think I can give you some insight into the institute.

I have visited VelTech and found it to be an unappealing college. And if we talk about SRM for an MBA, then definitely it is a great deal, with so many events encouraging students to broaden their horizons. Vel tech is less expensive than SRM, Although the quality of education is better in SRM in comparison to Vel tech.

Here is a brief comparison of Vel Tech and SRM.

So, you should go for SRM and if you want, you can also consult any senior of Vel tech because this will give you a better picture and decision-making will be easy for you.

VelTech is a good institute if we talk about the infrastructure, location, placements, faculty, and management. Check the following points for more insight into the institute:

• You will be given the opportunity to get a full scholarship if you have appeared in VelTech entrance exam and if your 12th score is the highest in your state.
• The students of CSE, Mechanical, and EEE can make the most of the facilities. However, the facilities for students pursuing Aeronautics are not up to the mark, unfortunately. 
• Compared to other private institutes, VelTech promises better placements to its students.
• The curriculum here focuses more on practical learning than theoretical knowledge. This helps the students to think in a broader way and improve their ideas.
• VelTech also has collaboration with foreign universities in Taiwan, Japan. Apart from internship opportunities, you will also get the chance to pursue your studies abroad with full financial backing from VelTech.

It is the first institute in the country that took on the initiative of CDIO for the quality of education. The fee structure is also constructed in such a way that people from all sections of society can seek admission.
