VIT was established with the aim of providing quality higher education on par with international standards. It persistently seeks and adopts innovative methods to improve the quality of higher education on a consistent basis. The campus has a cosmopolitan atmosphere with students from all corners of the globe. Experienced and learned teachers are strongly encouraged to nurture the students. The global standards set at VIT in the field of teaching and research spur us on in our relentless pursuit of excellence. In fact, it has become a way of life for us. The highly motivated youngsters on the campus are a constant source of pride. Our Memoranda of Understanding with various international universities is our major strength.

Many of our students who pursue their research projects in foreign universities, bring high quality to their work and esteem to India and have done us proud. With steady steps, we continue our march forward. We look forward to meeting you here at VIT.

"Erasmus+ stands as the European Union's flagship program dedicated to bolstering education, training, youth, and sport across Europe. With a significant budget of €26.2 billion allocated for the 2021-2027 period, this marks a notable increase compared to its previous iteration, underlining the EU's commitment to fostering growth and development in these crucial areas. Emphasizing key pillars such as social inclusion, the green and digital transitions, and enhancing youth engagement in democratic processes, Erasmus+ serves as a cornerstone for advancing the objectives outlined in the European Education Area, Digital Education Action Plan, and European Skills Agenda. Furthermore, it aligns with broader EU initiatives such as the European Pillar of Social Rights and the implementation of the EU Youth Strategy 2019-2027, while also nurturing the European dimension in sport. Through its multifaceted approach, Erasmus+ embodies the EU's dedication to nurturing a skilled, inclusive, and socially engaged society poised for the challenges of the future."
