ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLINESS @ VIT


VIT is one of the few universities which offer a course in Mechanical Engineering specialized in Energy. Students from this branch have their study related to environment friendly use of energy. VIT also has its own CO2 Research Centre.



VIT students have also contributed to the projects like Wind Mill, Solar Dish. These projects show how much is VIT interested in environment.



VIT also has one of the clubs based on environment - E2PC. It conducts various events based on environment including a marathon.
Greenery we find at VIT is indicative of the fact that VIT cares for our degrading environment.
VIT’s own Sewage Treatment Plant also shows the same. Waste management and handling skills of VIT is comparable to the institutes abroad. The well managed and clean footpaths, roads, lawns and buildings, with trash bins at every nook and corner of the university… this all shows VIT’s effort to have clean and healthy environment. It’s simply superb!!!



Proud to be a VITian!!!
