Discovering Viva institute of technology: A Student's Perspective

The college is affiliated with Mumbai University, thereby adhering to all university policies. However, it's worth noting that the curriculum from Mumbai University appears somewhat outdated and could benefit from a revision. Each semester entails three exams- two unit tests and one semester exam - amounting to a total of six exams per year. With examinations occurring every 3-4 months, it allows for a continuous assessment structure. The exams are generally manageable, and one can qualify by combing academic efforts with the development of additional skills.

Local companies in Virar offer competitive packages, with an average placement range of 4-5 LPA. Many students opts for M.Tech or international opportunites after graduationn.

The cultural fest "Hitashi" is also enjoyable. The library is well- stocked, and there's a book bank for reservation category students. Classrooms have single benches. However, there are no specific clubs, and sports facilities are available in common rooms for boys and girls, accessible with the ID cards.

The admisssion process was exceptionally smooth, with the entire staff being extremely helpful.
