Group-Wise B.Tech Program Allocations
Group A encompasses traditional branches like Civil Engineering, Biotechnology, and Mechanical specializations, available primarily at Vellore and Chennai, with limited options at Amaravati and Bhopal. Group B focuses on tech-heavy streams such as Computer Science and Engineering (with specializations in AI, Cybersecurity, Blockchain, and more), Electronics and Communication, and advanced Mechanical fields across all four campuses. This separation ties fees to program demand, with Group B commanding higher rates for computing disciplines.
- Vellore (Group A): Biomedical, Biotech, Chemical, Civil, CSE (Bioinformatics), EEE, etc.
- Chennai (Group A): Civil, EEE, Electronics and Computer, Fashion Technology.
- Group B (All Campuses): Extensive CSE variants, ECE, Mechanical with AI/Robotics/EVs, plus unique offerings like Aerospace at Bhopal.
Scholarships and Admission Pathway
Top VITEEE performers access the GV School Development Programme (GVSDP) scholarship: 100% tuition waiver for ranks 1-10, 75% for 11-50, 50% for 51-100, and 25% for 101-500, applied over four years.
