How are BITS Pilani and VIT better than IIT?

AB
Aditi Banerjee Posted On : August 5th, 2023
Lives in Bangalore

Both BITS and IITs are the best institutes in India, and they provide effective class and placement support to intelligent and aspiring candidates. But VIT is not up to the mark and cannot be compared with the other two institutes. 

IIT has twenty-three campuses in India, while BITS only has three campuses, which is a major difference. This is one of the main factors that make IITs superior to BITS. 

Apart from this, they gave quality education and a resourceful atmosphere to the students. Both of them have well-experienced scholars and rich alumni networks.

You can choose either IIT or BITS based on your preferences

Are least ranked NITs like Agartala, Srinagar, etc. good? Or should one prefer colleges like VIT/SRM/Manipal?

A
Admin Posted On : May 15th, 2024

I graduated from VIT Vellore in 2023, with a B.Tech degree in ECE branch. 

You’ll probably come across people who’ll tell you that low ranking NITs like NIT Agartala, Srinagar, etc. still carry the ‘NIT’ tag, and thus, they have a higher brand value compared to VIT Vellore. However, that is not the case.

My sister is currently studying at NIT Agartala, and according to her, VIT Vellore has a much higher industry reputation and a bigger brand name in comparison to lower ranking NITs. 

I have personally come across NITians who were unplaced after graduation. But as far as VIT Vellore is concerned, it delivers a high placement record each year. Many of the NITs suffer from poor infrastructure and shortage of facilities because of lack of funding and bad administration. As a private institution, VIT Vellore does not suffer in these areas. 

These are some reasons why I chose VIT Vellore for my B.Tech despite getting lower ranking NITs after 12th. If you are happy with the location, and you get your desired branch at VIT Vellore, I would recommend you to join this institution.

B.Tech Mechanical Engineering at SVNIT

Both SVNIT and VIT are very good engineering colleges and both of them have their own advantages. 

  • If you want a college with less strict rules, a more chill environment, fewer college fees, and an NIT tag, then you should choose SVNIT. 
  • If you are planning to go abroad for higher studies or a job, then you should choose VIT as you will get a lot of opportunities there. But there is a lot of competition and the college rules are very strict too. 
  • The campus of VIT is very beautiful and all the modern facilities are available there and you will find students here from all over the country. 
  • The hostels at VIT are also clean and well-maintained. There are both North Indian and South Indian food available separately at the hostel mess. 

The placements of VIT are very good as it is a very popular college and all the top companies visit the campus for placements. You can easily secure a job if you possess the right skills and you prepare yourself well for the interview and be confident enough.

Is Thapar University better than VIT placement-wise?

PS
Piyu Saha Posted On : August 12th, 2021
Studied at Thapar University (2019)

When placements are concerned, the better opportunities are secured by the student’s overall performance and rather than the college. But if I have to choose one among them, then I’d say Thapar receives better placement offers than VIT.

  • The number of students at VIT is greater than Thapar. So there is more competition for any particular job opportunity.
  • The number of companies visiting both campuses is almost equal. 
  • The faculty at Thapar is highly educated and cooperative. 
  • Students get enough industrial exposure through seminars, industrial visits, and internships.
  • Several mock group discussions and interview sessions are also conducted at Thapar to groom the students. 
  • The college also has a lot of societies to improve the students’ soft skills. 
  • It helps them in boosting their confidence and developing good communication skills. 
Category Thapar University VIT
Total Fee INR 66,000 INR 1,73,000
Companies Visited Wipro, Adobe, Infosys, Bosch, etc. Wipro, Intel, TCS, Tech Mahindra, etc.
Highest Package 25 LPA 26 LPA
Average Package 14 LPA 15 LPA

The biggest factor is that a lot of companies visit Thapar and so it is easier to get a placement there. The placements are better in Thapar. But do remember that the placements completely depend on you and not the college. A lot of companies visit the college for placements but it is up to you the kind of effort that you wish to put in that will land you a job.
