The IITs, NITs and IIITs have a certain brand name attached to them which makes students feel that other engineering colleges might be inferior to them. However, this may not always be the case.
VIT Vellore is a reputed private institution, and it is better than IIIT Vadodara in many aspects-
These are some reasons why I feel VIT Vellore is much better than IIIT Vadodara. Both the colleges will offer you good learning, but the exposure and opportunities provided by VIT Vellore are unparalleled.
IIIT Vadodara is an autonomous institute of national importance and this itself provides a brand value that VIT Vellore will never have. Perception matters a lot in this world and that’s why even new IITs have greater brand value than old institutions.
So, if you're faced with a choice between IIIT Vadodara and VIT Vellore, it's clear that IIIT Vadodara has a lot to offer in terms of brand reputation, quality of education, and placement opportunities.
IIIT Vadodara has greater brand value than VIT Vellore, as IIIT is an autonomous institute which is recognizable all around India. IIIT Vadodara is also more reputed than NITs and BITs, despite the NIRF rankings. One of my cousins studied at IIIT Vadodara. He is quite satisfied with the education he has received.
