SJ
Shalini Jain Posted On : August 20th, 2021
B.E Bachelors in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa Campus (2020)

VIT and BITS both are excellent engineering schools in our country. Both of them are known for their academics and placements in the CSE department. A friend of mine has experienced all three institutes. During his time of admission, he was studying in VIT in the CSE department and then changed to BITS Goa.

  • It is considered as the brightest students of VIT is equal to an average student of CSE in BITS Goa. 
  • The reason for this is mainly the programs and events being held at the institution continuously and frequently. 
  • BITS Goa has amazing faculties too which is an added bonus. 
  • Almost every student in BITS Goa is involved in Google Summer of Code (GSOC) or related to Competitive Coding. 
  • This enables and pushes the student towards better personality build and development. 
Categories CSE at BITS Pilani Goa
Course Fee 19.19 lakh
Highest CTC 24 LPA
Average CTC 11 LPA
Recruiting Companies Google, nVidia, DE Shaw, Arcesium, etc.

When compared to the NIT’s it all comes down to the NIT you’re comparing to. Older NIT’s like NIT Trichy have high scores even amongst premium education institutes for not just CSE branches but in every other major branch.

Which is better: VIT Vellore or BIT Sindri?

B
Biswajit Posted On : May 15th, 2024
B.Tech from VIT Vellore

I am a B.Tech CSE student at VIT Vellore, while my elder brother studies at BIT Sindri. Therefore, I can offer a more unbiased insight into why I chose VIT Vellore for my engineering studies-

  1. Infrastructure- Both the institutions have a huge campus, but in terms of infrastructure, VIT Vellore is better. Its labs are modern and well equipped, whereas BIT’s labs are old and require maintenance. 
  2. Placements- VIT delivers better packages. Moreover, it is a better choice for IT placements. On the other hand, BIT Sindri delivers better core placements with companies like Tata Steel, Tata Hitachi and JSW visiting the departments for recruitments.
  3. Exposure- VIT offers really good exposure to its students in the form of internships, student exchange programs and training. At BIT Sindri, internship offers are a rare phenomenon. Tata Steel does offer PPOs to BIT students.
  4. Faculty- The faculty at VIT is more experienced and qualified.

The yearly B.Tech course fee at VIT Vellore is approx. INR 2 lakhs, while that in BIT Sindri is approx. INR 20,000. But VIT offers much better infrastructural facilities and exposure to make up for the huge fee difference. 

Due to these reasons, my brother suggested that I pursue my B.Tech CSE at VIT Vellore instead of BIT Sindri.

Is Thapar University better than VIT placement-wise?

PS
Piyu Saha Posted On : August 12th, 2021
Studied at Thapar University (2019)

When placements are concerned, the better opportunities are secured by the student’s overall performance and rather than the college. But if I have to choose one among them, then I’d say Thapar receives better placement offers than VIT.

  • The number of students at VIT is greater than Thapar. So there is more competition for any particular job opportunity.
  • The number of companies visiting both campuses is almost equal. 
  • The faculty at Thapar is highly educated and cooperative. 
  • Students get enough industrial exposure through seminars, industrial visits, and internships.
  • Several mock group discussions and interview sessions are also conducted at Thapar to groom the students. 
  • The college also has a lot of societies to improve the students’ soft skills. 
  • It helps them in boosting their confidence and developing good communication skills. 
Category Thapar University VIT
Total Fee INR 66,000 INR 1,73,000
Companies Visited Wipro, Adobe, Infosys, Bosch, etc. Wipro, Intel, TCS, Tech Mahindra, etc.
Highest Package 25 LPA 26 LPA
Average Package 14 LPA 15 LPA

The biggest factor is that a lot of companies visit Thapar and so it is easier to get a placement there. The placements are better in Thapar. But do remember that the placements completely depend on you and not the college. A lot of companies visit the college for placements but it is up to you the kind of effort that you wish to put in that will land you a job.

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : September 2nd, 2023

If you are getting the same branches, then choosing NIT Kurukshetra over VIT Vellore is a better decision. Here is why 

  • NIT Kurukshetra is an Institute of National Importance and its tag is highly regarded.
  • You will get a permanent membership to the NIT fraternity.
  • The placement opportunities are much better at NIT than at VIT. You can get a good package even if you are an average student here
  • NIT Kurukshetra is located in close vicinity to cities like Chandigarh and Delhi. Students have more places to explore.

VIT Vellore is a decent college but if I had to choose between NIT and VIT, I would have chosen NIT Kurukshetra.

What should I prefer Heritage Institute of Technology or VIT?

SM
Subhashree Mukherjee Posted On : September 22nd, 2021
CSE at HITK

Honestly, this is not even a comparison. VIT (any campus) is way better than Heritage Institute of Technology. Actually, Heritage Institute of Technology is not even the best college in the Kolkata region. It is the Institute of Engineering and Management (IEM).

Heritage Institute of Technology is obviously cheaper than VIT to study and also closer to your home if you are from the eastern region of India. You will get a job after graduating with a starting salary of around INR 3.5 lakhs per annum. If you have financial constraints and you are ok with this kind of starting salary then Heritage Institute of Technology will not disappoint you.

However, if you are well enough to pay for the fee of VIT, then in no way you should even think of Heritage Institute of Technology. The environment you will get there are obviously the placements of VIT are way better than Heritage Institute of Technology to even consider them for comparison.

Which ranks higher, VIT or Anna University Chennai?

KA
Karim Avram Posted On : December 16th, 2022
M.E Aeronautical Engineer from Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2018)

First of all, don’t trust the official figures regarding rankings for colleges. They are misleading and are meant for advertisement purposes only. No good college needs to show itself at the top of the rankings. 

Now comparing VIT and Anna University, Anna University is definitely better in the ranking than VIT. Its CEG branch is at another level and not on par with VIT at all. Some points that support this opinion are:

  • Student quality at Anna University is better than at VIT.

  • VIT is a private university therefore more expensive than AU

  • The curriculum is harder in AU than in VIT, but the assessments are direct and easy here.

  • Placement opportunities are better at AU because of the variety of companies that visit the campus in contrast to the mass IT recruits that happen in VIT.

All these points strongly favor my opinion. One thing to keep in mind here is that when I say Anna University is better I mean the main campuses (CEG, MIT, ACT) not the affiliated colleges.

Can VIT Vellore defeat all the NITs and BITS (Goa & Hyderabad) in the coming years?

AD
Asmita Deshmukh Posted On : August 24th, 2021
B.Tech Computer Science Engineering, Vellore Institute of Technology, Vellore (2020)

VIT is an ABET-certified institution that is acclaimed by only a few universities and this itself is a big achievement. But now the situation is not so good and VIT is slowly losing its name and reputation in the industry. 

With their current system of conducting exams and a new system of counseling, the quality of its students is drastically decreasing. They are counseling students who are still preparing for JEE Advanced and forcing them to pay even before the results are out. 

Due to which most students withdraw their names and this creates a large number of vacancies and they are not allotted on the basis of merit. 

Also, the placements of NITs and BITS are excellent compared to VIT and the average packages offered to the students of these colleges are much better than the packages offered to the students of VIT.
