Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham Coimbatore Answered Questions

Being a student from Tier-2 college, I can tell you that the following companies generally come for placements:
-Caterpillar (offered Highest package during my college time )
-Mahindra and Mahindra
-Tata motors
-L&T
-Wheels India
-Bosch
-Suzlon
-Flowserve
-Ucal fuel systems
-Hyundai motors
-Ford India
-Blue Star
- Elgi
Apart from these, there will be software companies for recruitment.

We can differentiate one from other on the basis of following factors.
1. Faculty: Faculty at Amrita and VIT are reasonably good but more number of Ph.Ds are at Amrita I guess. Faculty at Amrita are friendly compared to faculty at other colleges.
2. Discipline and Values: In this Amrita stands at top giving importance to discipline and values. Along with education for living one can learn education for life at VIT only. But VIT university sometimes fails in this( this is from the information of my friends)
3. Labs: Labs are good at Amrita, VIT and Manipal University.
4. Infrastructure: Infrastructure at Amrita is good compared to rest. Vellore also has good infrastructure and hotels they say. But being in Amrita is homely.
5. Placements: Placements percentage at VIT stands top among these but the placement percentages of others is also not very low. They are almost comparable. But the companies come to hire, sometimes take the students for IT jobs (even the non-computer science student). Students placed in core (mechanical, electrical and electronics ) are low, mostly they will be placed in TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Tech Mahindra etc. Based on the above details you have to decide which suits you.

Go for XIME Bangalore. You need not stay at your home town and do your MBA. You should consider place and exposure as well. Come out of your comfort zone, you will put through tests and vigorous training. Bangalore being the IT hub can give you a better exposure in terms of placements and learning.
