I would not recommend you to take up biotechnology in any of the private colleges in India, as there is a much larger possibility that you might land up in any of the IT companies due to the dearth of core biotechnology companies in India in comparison to the opportunities abroad.
VIT, as any other private university fails to comply with the same. The number of core biotech companies visiting the campus during the placement season is so meager that they only take a handful of 3 - 4 students.

1. The labs are well equipped.

6. As for teachers, there are two sides to every coin so just get hold of a senior and you will get the teacher of your choice.
