A short review of VELS School of Engineering.

Placements: Don't need to worry about placements. VELS is providing good placements, 90% of the students particularly. They have been doing good in this part for the recent few years. VELS is a trusted university. They are offering placements from good companies, salary is not so high but I can say that VELS is one of the top 10 colleges in Chennai that is offering good placements with a decent salary package.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure and facilities are good. Hostel is not a good option not satisfied with my college hostel but it's not that bad also. Well, there are also not much canteens present in my college. Mess food is good. So, if you ask me an overall review of my college's infrastructure and facilities it is average but manageable.

Faculty: Faculty members are very friendly, liberal, and lovable. Teaching at VELS is so trusted and good. That's the main part I like about my college. They will complete the syllabus within the limited time so no need to worry about studies. But exams are a little pressuring here maybe there you will lack.

It is a good college with memory space.

Infrastructure: We have good labs with a Wi-Fi connection. All computers are high in standards. We have a huge library which is helpful for students to learn. We can yearly sports activities to support physical skills.

Faculty: Teachers are knowledgeable and highly qualified with PhD degrees. Many teachers published research papers. The syllabus is well-equipped and correlated with current trends. The pass percentage is above 70% in our college. The course is aligned with subject trends. Courses are taught well.

Other: I want to become a data analyst so I chose BCA in the college. We have many tech-related festivals which encourage students technical skills.

B.Sc. in Aeronautical Science - Batch of 2025

3Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

Good for aviation - overall average.

Placements: Our program has a good record of placing students in companies like Indigo, Air India, etc. Many students from our senior batch have secured full-time positions, while even second-year students have obtained part-time jobs on campus. While the number of companies visiting our college is limited, those that do tend to be high-quality employers, offering opportunities to a select group of students.

Infrastructure: Our college's outdated infrastructure and poor maintenance make for an unpleasant experience. The bathrooms, in particular, are unsanitary and emit strong odors that can be suffocating. This, combined with other shortcomings, creates a less-than-ideal living environment for students residing in the hostel.

Faculty: The accelerated pace of the course may hinder students' ability to fully grasp the material, especially in the final stages. However, the curriculum is relevant and prepares students for the industry, providing them with the necessary knowledge and skills for success.

Satisfied with the college and good placements.

Placements: There are 50 students in the class. The minimum salary offered is Rs. 10,000 per month and the maximum is 1 LPA. Companies for recruiting are not that many only some top companies, others are startups, and not that many salaried companies. Maximum students do not get that many internships. Top role offered is BPO.

Infrastructure: Computer labs have AC. It is a good and cool lab system. Wi-Fi is awesome and it has good speed but only in lab, you can access the phones only by without knowing and sneaky. The library is fine. The hostel is average. Canteen provides snack items, which are good and meals are average.

Faculty: Few teachers are good for me and others are average. Teaching quality is good. They don't make students industry-ready, we have to be self-ready. MCA has 4 semesters, 3 semesters, and the final semester has only one project.

Other: I chose this course MCA because I have already done BCA I have computer knowledge, so I took the MCA. The best thing about the course is we can learn programming and computer knowledge. Events are made very grand. Culturals are made for 3 days which is very fun.

My college is very bad at parking. They should improve it.

Placements: They offer good packages to the passed batch, but some of them are not satisfied with the package. Also, some students can’t get jobs because they don’t learn the necessary skills during the semester. Most of them don’t look out for opportunities, and the college leaves them free at the end of the semester without proper guidance. They see everything.

Infrastructure: Our department staff is good, but the only problem is the building. It is an old building and has many problems due to a lack of maintenance. At least they can improve the seating benches and replace all the electrical equipment with new ones. That may help.

Faculty: They are enough qualified and also good at conveying knowledge to students, but sometimes they lack English skills. They are not good at speaking English. The semester exams are strict and difficult, but it is easy to pass if you fill the paper with a minimum of 35 pages.

Other: I chose this course because I took computer applications in my 11th and 12th grades, so I selected this course.

Not that great but a good college

Placements: Not sure about the percentage of placed students as it's final year for us. As of now highest was 7 LPA and lowest was 4 LPA. Top recruiting companies are TCA, Accenture. Almost everyone who applied for internship is in Sutherland. Top role is BPA.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is quite good in VELS. The ground is too small and whole campus is small but classrooms are good and equipped with projectors and some departments have air conditioners. Hostel facilities are great. Mess food would get bored after 6 months. Medical facilities are less inside the campus, sports and games are okay.

Faculty: Teaching quality is good but not upto the mark in some subjects and maybe in other departments not sure. Curriculum is relevant to the course and it makes the students somewhat industry ready. Semester exams are difficult and the percentage of pass is above 90%.

Other: I chose this course because i have interest in economics and investments. Best thing about this course is it's easy to understand and learn. The course should be more real life oriented apart from theories which we'll never use in life. I am particularly not satisfied with the campus life as the campus is mostly crowded. Extracurriculars are good.
