Great experience at Veltech.
Placements: I'm from the B.Tech Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AIML) 2025-29 batch. The placement opportunities at Veltech are quite good especially for CSE and AIML students.

The highest package in our department is around 15 LPA, the average package range is between 4 LPA and 5 LPA, and the lowest is about 2.5 LPA. Top recruiters include TCS, Infosys, Cognizant, HCL, Wipro, Zoho, and Accenture.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure for AIML students is impressive. The labs are well-equipped with modern systems and software support. Every department has Wi-Fi access, smart classrooms, projectors, and a good library with digital resources. The hostels are clean and spacious. There's 24/7 water and power backup. The mess food is decent with both North and South Indian options. There's also a canteen and juice shop on campus. Medical facilities are available with a campus doctor and ambulance service. The college also encourages sports. We have cricket, volleyball, basketball courts, and indoor games. Overall it's a good and safe place.
Faculty: The faculty in AIML are qualified and approachable. Most professors have M.Tech or Ph.D. degrees and are very helpful during projects and research work. The curriculum is updated according to the latest industry trends including topics like Deep Learning, Data Science, and IoT. Exams are moderately difficult but easy to pass if you study regularly. There is continuous assessment, internal tests, and project work help students perform better. The pass percentage is above 90 percent in our course.

Good infrastructure and decent placements for AI.
Placements: Around 80 percent of students from our B.Tech artificial intelligence and data science course got placed in reputed companies. The highest package is 12 LPA, the average is 4.5 LPA, and the lowest is 3 LPA. Top recruiters included TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, Accenture, Zoho, and IBM. Around 60 percent of students received internships from companies like SmartInternz and TechnoHack. Major roles offered are data analyst, python developer, machine learning engineer, and business analyst. The placement cell conducted mock interviews and training sessions that helped students perform well on-campus drives.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure for our AI and data science department is excellent. Classrooms are clean and equipped with smart boards and projectors. Labs have updated systems with high-speed Wi-Fi and the latest AI tools. Library has good reference books and e-resources. Hostel facilities are neat with 24X7 water, power, and Wi-Fi. Mess food is hygienic, and the canteen offers tasty snacks. Medical facilities, sports grounds, and a gym are also available. The environment is safe, comfortable, and supportive for both academic and personal growth.
Faculty: Faculty members in the AI and data science department are well-qualified, helpful, and always ready to guide students. Most teachers have good industry and research knowledge. Their teaching methods make complex topics easy to understand. The curriculum is updated with AI, ML, and data analytics subjects, which help students become industry-ready. Semester exams are moderate in difficulty, focusing on understanding rather than rote learning. With regular assessment and lab work, the pass percentage remains above 90 percent. The faculty support and course structure are very effective for practical learning.
Other: I chose the B.Tech in artificial intelligence and data science because of my strong interest in technology, coding, and data-driven problem solving. The course offers great exposure to trending domains like machine learning, data analytics, and AI tools. Our college also organizes tech fests, hackathons, and seminars, which help in gaining practical knowledge. The campus crowd is friendly. There are good opportunities for extracurricular activities. I wish the placement opportunities for core AI roles could be further improved, but it’s a great course for students interested in future technologies.

The Vel Tech has good courses and placement.
Placements: Vel Tech University reports a strong placement record, with the percentage of eligible students placed exceeding 90 percent. The highest package recorded in recent drives is 44 LPA which is offered by Amazon, while the average package for B.Tech programs is between 4 LPA and 6.5 LPA. The campus is visited by over 300 companies including top recruiters like TCS, Wipro, Infosys, Capgemini, Accenture, and Zoho. Many students secure internships (sometimes it is reported up to 70 percent) with these firms, which offer final roles predominantly in Software Development and System Engineering.
Infrastructure: The hostel buildings themselves are well-maintained, offering multiple occupancy options (AC/Non-AC) with basic furnishing. Facilities are comprehensive including 24/7 water, unlimited Wi-Fi, laundry services, a gym, and sports courts. The experience is marked by two main factors management is very strict with rules and curfews. Regarding food, the quality is often consistent while South Indian cuisine is generally fine overall, mess food receives mixed feedback and is best described as okay. Medical and canteen facilities are readily available on campus.
Faculty: The faculty at Vel Tech are reported to be highly qualified with many holding Ph.D. degrees or actively pursuing them. They are considered knowledgeable and helpful adopting a friendly and supportive approach with students (the mentor-mentee system is frequently mentioned). The teaching quality is rated as good, with professors using modern methods and providing notes. However some long-term student reviews mention occasional inconsistencies in teaching quality across departments, and some regional bias from certain placement coordinators has been noted by a few non-local students.
Other: I'm from the B.Tech CSE (AI & ML) 2024-2028 batch at Vel Tech University, Avadi. I chose this course because of my interest in technology and artificial intelligence. The best parts are practical learning, workshops, and helpful faculty. However more real-world projects and placement support could improve. The campus has good events, scholarships, and friendly students.
