Introduction The department of Information and Technology(IT) was established during the inception of the institute in 2007 with an annual intake of 60 students. Every year our students secure placements in reputed companies like INFOSYS, TCS, TECH MAHINDRA, EFFTRONICS, ADP etc. The laboratory practical classes are conducted in a systematic manner, where complete plan is given at the time of commencement of the semester .The laboratories are well equipped with modern training facilities that cater to the requirements of the university syllabus. This department plays a vital role in training students of other branches in training them to secure the job in software field. Vision To produce IT professionals who can develop globally competitive and socially useful information technology enabled solutions and products that offer cost effective solutions, for organizations, in particular and society in general, through their innovative ideas, and to create a knowledge pool through research in this field. Mission - • Producing information technology professionals for the Global IT industry.
- • Developing student centric and qualitative teaching-learning practices
- • Establishing infrastructure that endows cutting edge technology requirements of the industry
- • To extend service to the public, the state and the nation at large by building quality engineers.
- • To carve disciplined and socially, technologically better responsible citizens.
- • To make the students pursuing information technology the technological ambassadors of VVIT in whatever part of the world they find themselves in their future careers.
