Which is better for mechanical engineering in Pune: VIIT, VIT, or MIT?

I have many friends pursuing Mechanical Engineering in Pune from institutes like CIIT, VIT or MIT. Here is a comparative analysis of the two based on some common aspects Infrastructure: Infrastructure-wise, MIT is way ahead of VIIT and VIT. It has better campus facilities and a more diverse curriculum than other institutes. VIIT also has a decent infrastructure followed by VIT. Academics : All the aforementioned institutes have a well-updated curriculum mainly because they are autonomous. The faculty pool in general is of similar quality and you will have to depend on self-study more or less everywhere you go. Diversity : MIT has a more diverse student pool and you will get to interact with people coming from different states. Based on the crowd diversity, the preference order would be MIT> VIT> VIIT Practical exposure : VIT offers the best practical exposure because its Mechanical Engineering program is the oldest among the aforementioned institutes. VIIT and MIT ME branch is new so the exposure offered is very limited. In fact, these students are taken to VIT for exposure. Placements: VIIT and MIT have a similar average package of around INR 7 LPA while VIT had a lower average package of around INR 4.77 LPA. The final decision will depend on your future prospects and inclinations.

How is VIIT Pune college for Mechanical Engineering?

VIIT Pune Mechanical Engineering program is a 4-year course and the course fee is around INR 5.96 Lakhs (General). The hostel fee is INR 1.21 Lakhs. You should not waste your year and get admitted to VIIT Pune for your Mechanical Engineering. VIIT Pune is quite a good college. If you drop a year, you might regret that decision because then you will need to explain your gap to the recruiters during placements. All the institutions in Pune are similar in terms of facilities. The crowd at VIIT Pune is pretty good. The faculty is average. The placement scenario for Mechanical at VIIT Pune is average. Here are the placement statistics for B.Tech Mechanical Engineering (2022) at VIIT Pune- Particulars B.Tech Mechanical 2022 No. of Companies that Participated 4 No. of Students Registered 283 No. of Eligible Students 72 Placement Percentage 26% Highest CTC INR 6 LPA Average CTC INR 3.47 LPA Based on these figures, VIIT Pune is a pretty decent choice for your B.Tech Mechanical. However, the institution is secondary. What matters the most is your dedication and effort. You can use this information to decide whether you wish to pursue your Mechanical from VIIT Pune or not.

Which is the best for mechanical engineering, VIIT in Pune, VIT in Pune, or MIT Pune?

Among these, VIT Pune is the best option for Mechanical Engineering. VIT Pune Mechanical branch is more than 20 years old. So, it had better exposure. This helps in better industry recognition, tie-ups. VIT offers better placements for the Mechanical branch. It offers more core placements compared to VIIT and MIT. According to the VIT Pune Mechanical Engineering placements of the last few years, the average CTC for the branch is 5-6 LPA. VIIT shares campus placement with VIT. But few companies visiting the placement drive don’t allow VIIT students to sit for placement. VIT, VIIT, and MIT three of these colleges are autonomous, and they update their curriculum regularly. So, you can expect similar academics from all three of these institutes.
