Alumni Testimonial

Yogesh Kumar

(2020-22 Batch)

M.Tech Biomedical Instrumentation program offered at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham helped me develop my technical and personal skills that transformed me into a confident and industry ready person. I feel grateful for my institution for supporting me to get this exciting opportunity at INXEE.

Chitranjali

(2020-22 Batch)

One of the factors that makes Amrita different from other universities is its curriculum. It includes more practical sessions than theory sections in current technologies, which helps us gain knowledge and prepare us for real-world engineering skills. Amrita has a dedicated course for placement training, which helps to groom soft skills, social skills and aptitude skills. All these things will help me to get an internship at INXEE and TATA ELXSI

Sanjeevi
