Strict rules, yet a very systematic college. It is definitely a place to learn and a chance to grow.

Placements: In VIT Vellore, most of the above-average to top-performing students are placed. In B.Tech Biotechnology, the highest package is 20 LPA, and the minimum is 4 LPA. Top recruiters include Biocon and other Bangalore-based biotech companies. Top roles include assistant manager in companies and intern. About 70-80% of students get placed in Biotechnology.

Infrastructure: The whole campus is well connected by Wi-Fi and is covered with lush green surroundings. Hostels are very neat and tidy, and the management works to keep them clean. Classrooms are quite spacious and airy. The library is well-lit and air-conditioned. There are also stores for snacks.

Faculty: Most of teachers in VIT are Ph.D. holders, and they are the most capable in their fields. Honestly, apart from academics, the faculty focuses on the holistic growth of an individual through hackathons, cultural events, and assigning management positions to students.

Other: The course is very relevant to the industry standards, and everything else in the college is on point. The only thing that can bother freshers is that the college is very strict regarding its rules, and you can get fined very easily if you're found breaking rules

Average college.

Placements: The placements are okay, but super dream offers are not that many. Most people get placed in service-based companies through mass hiring. If you prepare well, you will get around 10-12 LPA CTC; higher offers are also received, with the highest around 1.2cr and 50 LPA. Internship opportunities are good; many companies like PayPal, Wells Fargo, Visa, Intuit, Motorq, etc., come for placements.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is good and available in hostels, the mess, and libraries, but not available in classes. Mess food is normal, not too bad and not too good, but the sports facilities are all paid, which means you have to spend even more on top of the fees you already pay.

Faculty: Teachers are average; many are not enthusiastic about teaching, and most teachers just read from PPTs. The course curriculum is updated and relevant to industry standards. Exams are average; very few people fail, around 5%. Memory is important to do well in these exams; they are not very innovation-based.

Other: I chose biotech because I wanted to pursue a Master's in a similar stream. Events are plentiful, with lots of clubs that have a good environment.
