Placement is held under VIT brand image so there is an universal placement cell for all the branches of VIT. Needless to say placement is definitely good and almost all the students are placed every year. However, some of the major companies hire students only with a certain CGPA.

Yes, there are rigorous placement classes for those students who opt to sit for placements.
