Twenty Five Years and still marching ahead!
Vellore Institute of Technology is located in the historic city of
Vellore, about 120 km from Chennai. From modest beginnings as Vellore
Engineering College under the aegis of Madras University in 1984, it has come a very long way under the
able guidance of the founder and Chancellor, Mr. G. Vishwanathan, to
become a University in its own right, and to be rated among the best
engineering colleges in the country. Here, emphasis isn’t on education
alone, but on overall development of the individual to equip one with
all the skills required to deal with life. With cutting-edge
infrastructure and a wide range of facilities to harness the hidden
potential of each student, VIT provides an educational experience they
will cherish for the rest of their lives. VIT truly is, A Place to
Learn, A Chance to Grow.

Welcome

Its time for creativity to show its power.
With a pen on paper or a mike on stage,
The literary events bring a creative package.
Music and dance to challenge your counterpart,
Here is where the tunes of festivity start.

Who would sweat it out to call themselves winners.
The glamour of fashion show and energy of pro show,
Would never let you down or feel low.

Riviera,
Enlighten your spirits and “revive the era.”
