VIT Vellore Answered Questions

COEP and VIT are both good colleges and among the top most in Maharashtra. But among the two COEP is the winner. COEP has been ranked one in Maharashtra after the IITs and NITs. According to MHRD rankings COEP is ranked 24th while VIT is not even in the top 100.
Generally speaking COEP blows VIT out of the water. COEP is much well-known and trusted among recruiters as compared to VIT. Last time COEP had around 85% placement for CSE (this number seems less as the students who didn't accept the offers are also included) and the average salary was around 7-8 LPA for CSE department which is more compared to VIT which had an average package of around 6 LPA.
COEP in also better in academics and VIT is better in extracurricular as such. But what I have learnt from staying one year in Tamil Nadu is that COEP is well known all over India but the same is not the case with VIT.
So go for COEP over VIT.

Civil engineering in VIT is a good option. Faculties are decent and the opportunities of projects are also as per standards of good engineering colleges. However, the problem with civil engineering is that it is literally a dying field. Don't ever anticipate that after 3-4 years, there will be any progress in this field because no matter how many infrastructural projects come up, the intake of civil engineers in core jobs will be same. I don't know why it's that way. Talking about placements in the civil dept. of VIT, it's downright poor. About 30-40%. The best company that recruits from VIT is L&T construction. However, you'll have to be in the top 40s for it. Godrej Properties gives good package, however, their intake is less than 5. Tata housing, Saint Gobain are other 2 core firms that recruited last year but they too have a meagre intake and pay package. If you want to go for higher studies then you might take up civil in VIT. It is mainly about field work and you have to be very focused in your work site also.

Hello Abhishek,
All these three universities are the top colleges for CSE. But in terms of rankings, VIT University tops the list. While SRM University ranks second and Manipal Institute of Technology is at the third.
So my preference order would be :
1) VIT University, Vellore
2) SRM University main campus
3) Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal.
