4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Absolutely I love the college because of the faculty, good placement in 2026, & good infrastructure.

Placements: 92% students are placed. 33 LPA is the highest package offered, and 3 LPA is the lowest. TCS, Accenture, Capgemini, and DHL recruit. 90% got internships, and every semester, one paper is compulsory, an internship should be taken, and mini projects are also done by us. FedEx and DHL offer internships. Inventory Manager and warehouse Manager, route planning, and project manager are the roles offered.

Infrastructure: We have well-equipped lab facilities, a library, and free Wi-Fi. The hostel is equipped with AC and non-AC rooms, providing an affordable feel. For sports, there are clubs and teams. Medical facilities are available, like they have their own medical room where trained medical students are ready to take care.

Faculty: All the professors are Ph.D. graduates and have more experience in teaching. The course curriculum is relevant, and we also have industry visits related to the courses to gain practical knowledge. The semester is very easy, and 37% is the pass percentage, so we can easily score.

Other: I chose this course because I wanted to build my own business in logistics. The best thing about my course is that it is now globally wanted, and there are more chances of employment. I wish our course had more industrial visits. Events are so wonderful, and the campus has enough parking facilities, and restrooms are also nearby. About the scholarship, every year they conduct the VSAT exam, in which I have got 25% scholarship. We have dance, music, and all kinds of extracurricular activities.

B.B.A. in Aviation Management - Batch of 2027

4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

It is a highly recommended college for students.

Placements: 45 out of 100 percent of students get placed in this course. The highest package offered is 33 LPA, and the lowest package offered is 2 LPA. The top recruiting company is Singapore Airlines. Above 90 percent of students got internships in Indigo. The top roles offered in this course are cabin crew and ground staff at the airport.

Infrastructure: Our college provides free Wi-Fi, Stim lab, smart classrooms, and a library with more than 10,000 books. I would rate 9 out of 10 for the college hostel facilities. The food provided is fresh enough for students, and the menu changes daily. On Sunday, they provide non-vegetarian food for students.

Faculty: Teachers are friendly and knowledgeable. There are professional staff members. They maintain discipline. The course curriculum is relevant, and it makes students industry-ready. It is easy to pass exams. Mostly, they will provide the question bank. The pass percentage is 80 percent.

Other: I chose this course because I am interested in aviation. It will be profitable when they lose the annual fee. Vels Nakshatra event is organised here.

B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering - Batch of 2029

2Placements2Infrastructure2Faculty2Crowd & Campus Life2Value for Money

Reality of so called reputed university.

Placements: Placements are pretty mediocre at their best, only 30 percent of students get placed mainly in software based companies and we do not have proof that we ever have a product based company for placements. The roles offered are pretty basic and only very few get the opportunity for internship.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is below average. You get pretty slow Wi-Fi in campuses, classrooms are cleaned once a week, medical facilities are not free and they are very expensive if it is an emergency too and the hostel is fine there is nothing too fancy or bad, but the food is bad.

Faculty: Faculty members, some are good some do not even know what they are teaching, some just blab and get away. The facilitators who are doing Ph.D. here and teaching are very poor in terms of subject knowledge. Semester exams are moderate the pass percentage is 40 percent.

Other: I chose this college only because it has lower fees compared to others.

Offered by School of Life Sciences, VELS Institute of Science, Technology and Advanced Studies

4Placements3Infrastructure5Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Satisfied with the faculty, infrastructure could be improved, and good placements last year.

Placements: I just joined my batch a few months ago. I don’t know the placement percentage, but there are 63 students enrolled in my course. I also don’t know the package system yet. The recruiting companies for my course are SYASANS and ZOHO, and the top roles are Senior Microbiologist and Lab Technician.

Infrastructure: The whole college is divided into particular blocks for certain courses. Some newly built blocks are very comfortable, but the block I am in, the first building made, is honestly not the ideal block to have classrooms in. I come from Lucknow, and it is sort of difficult for me at the start, but now I have adjusted to hostel life. It has been a hard journey, but overall, the hostel is good.

Faculty: The best thing about my course and college is my teachers. They are very helpful and listen to all sorts of complaints, especially my mentor, she is the best. Teaching-wise, they explain topics clearly so they enter our minds. Right now, I am having my semester exams for the first time, and they have been moderately easy.

Other: I chose this course because I want to move abroad and become a Senior Microbiologist, as I am fond of Biology. The only thing I would wish to improve about the college is the infrastructure of my block.

Good faculty and better studies.

Placements: Legal side roles are offered in limited companies only. The highest package for my course is more than 1 lakh per semester. 100% of students are placed in my course. We have three sections in each batch. Top recruiters are Zoho Corporation, HDFC Bank, and other companies.

Infrastructure: We have labs, a moot court hall, classroom projectors, and a library for our course. The quality of food is okay but not very hygienic. They provide both veg and non-veg from the same canteen, and a medical room is available. Sports and games are conducted every semester in our college.

Faculty: Faculty members are very helpful overall. They have limited knowledge of their subjects only, but they clarify doubts. The curriculum is relevant. Semester exams are a little difficult, but the passing percentage is very high in our college. They also conduct regular exams.

Absolutely very good college you can go for it if you get a scholarship .

Placements: Totally 92 percentage of students are placed in my college but we can't predict what kind of job they will get some may I get placed in a very good company or some way even get placed in normal company and they are very few top companies will come for the campus interview like accenture company etc. But only three company will come which are like top they will provide you intention in the summer holidays but you have to pay separately for the term internship top role in my core is like data analyst.

Infrastructure: The food will be good but the feels will be or nearly one Lacs per annum labs and classroom will be very good the bench will also be very clean and they will be SMART board projector etc. In every classes there is no Wi-Fi connection the library will be common for all the department also you will be very good.

Faculty: The teachers are very knowledgeable but they can't cover the portions example totally 5 unit will be there and they will complete only three, the passing percentage will be 40 and it is not that much difficult to pass in the exam. But you should get at least 18 mark in the internal out of 40 so that you can pass or else you will fails in the semester.

Other: I choose vels University because they provide scholarship for most of the people and it is very value for the money you can save a lot of money but you have to work a lot to maintain that's scholarship.
