According to some of my friends studying at Vel Tech, the placements here are really good. The average salary packages offered are good, however, the core companies are just for CSE. More than 60,000 per month are offered by Amazon, Informatica, and Musigma.

Many reputed companies participate in their placement program. These include Capgemini, IIIT Hyderabad, MAITRI Technology Solutions, VENUS Geo, HICO, TCS, Reliance, Aditya Birla, Tech Mahindra and many more.

Firstly, clear your mind regarding the ranking of Vel Tech University. It is still a deemed university which means it is still under development. The university does not hold any Asian Rank or even the country-wise rank, but it holds a decent rank in Tamil Nadu. The university is considered better than many North Indian Universities. 

Overall Vel Tech University has a good reputation among students and is considered good for academics and the rules that are being implemented here.

Lastly, we can conclude that do not look much into rank as nowadays paying more and attaining higher rank is not very difficult. Weigh the pros and cons of the university and then take your decision.

A few of my friends graduated from Saveetha University and Vel Tech University and based on their experience I will say Saveetha University is better than the Vel Tech engineering college.

Saveetha University is the best because the college environment is excellent and has good faculty, good communications skills trainers. The college infrastructure is good with more labs, good teaching, and a friendly environment. The teaching methodology employed is quite good. There are only smart board classes. 

Placements are way better at Saveetha University as compared to Val Tech. According to the recent placement trends around 91% of students get placed from Saveetha University. 

Saveetha University is overall a better choice in terms of infrastructure, faculties, and placements.

VelTech is a good institute if we talk about the infrastructure, location, placements, faculty, and management. Check the following points for more insight into the institute:

• You will be given the opportunity to get a full scholarship if you have appeared in VelTech entrance exam and if your 12th score is the highest in your state.
• The students of CSE, Mechanical, and EEE can make the most of the facilities. However, the facilities for students pursuing Aeronautics are not up to the mark, unfortunately. 
• Compared to other private institutes, VelTech promises better placements to its students.
• The curriculum here focuses more on practical learning than theoretical knowledge. This helps the students to think in a broader way and improve their ideas.
• VelTech also has collaboration with foreign universities in Taiwan, Japan. Apart from internship opportunities, you will also get the chance to pursue your studies abroad with full financial backing from VelTech.

It is the first institute in the country that took on the initiative of CDIO for the quality of education. The fee structure is also constructed in such a way that people from all sections of society can seek admission.

M.Tech at Vel Tech University is of two types –

1. A regular college where you pass from the university with poor placements.
2. A tie-up in collaboration with ARAI. After 2nd-year in Pune, you will have an opportunity to get placed in an automobile company but the placements are not 100% guaranteed.

In 2017, there was 25 to 30% placement, in 2018, it was 30 to 35% and in the year 2019, the placement percentage ranged from almost 40 to 50%. 

There is an average package of 6 LPA for companies like TVS, escorts, FCA. An average package of 8 to 11,00,00 per annum is offered by Tata, Mahindra, and ARAI.

One of my cousins graduated from Vel Tech. According to him, the CSE department of Vel Tech is great. Many students of CSE at Vel Tech are pursuing separate courses outside in Taiwan-like countries and getting credits in their international.

The institute has a great atmosphere for programming. It also offers many scholarships to deserving students.

Here are some of the benefits that you will get from attending Vel Tech.

Vel Tech also offers good placement opportunities. According to the recent placement highlights, around 90% of students get placed in companies like Amazon, Wipro, Infosys, Capgemini, Lenovo, etc.

I would like to provide you with insights about both the given colleges.

Bharath Institute of Higher Education and Research aka Bharath University is a Deemed University located in Selaiyur, Chennai. Bharath University offers more than 150 courses in 14 streams. The placements of Bharath University are better than Vel Tech. Around 93% of students got placed in 2018 - 2019. More than 175 companies including Amazon, Wipro, Hexaware, TCS, Infosys, Byju’s, HCL and many more top companies visited the college. The companies offered both technical and non-technical jobs. The maximum salary offered was 15 Lakhs per annum. The average salary was 3 Lakhs per annum. Also, 350+ students were given internships in their respective fields. Mostly students from Computer Science, Mechanical and ECE got placed.

Vel Tech offers undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral programmes in Engineering and Technology and Master of Business Administration. The placements in Vel Tech are decent as around 80% of students got placed in 2018 – 19. Companies like Yamaha, Kaar Technologies, Accenture, TCS, Mahindra & Mahindra, Tech Mahindra, Byju’s, Tata, Ashok Leyland, Jingsung and many more visited the college. The highest salary package offered was 6.8 Lakhs per annum. The average salary package offered was 2.7 Lakhs per annum. Very few students get placed in ‘core’ companies.

Both the colleges are good enough. Placement chances in Bharath University are somewhat more than Vel Tech. In the end, Decision lies in your hand which college to choose.
Thank you
