==Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship==<div><span style="fontbig>VVIT not only strives to educate students but also inspires them to be more than literate. Students in VVIT will be taught how to be entrepreneurial. Our institute has an Institution's Innovation Council under the guidance of experts. Institution Innovation Council (IIC) is an '''Initiative of the Ministry of Human Resource Development for selected Higher Education Institutes'''. The '''MHRD'''(Ministry of Human Resource Development)''', Govt.''' '''of India''' has established 'MHRD's Innovation Cell (MIC)' to systematically foster the culture of Innovation amongst all Higher Education Institutions.

The main goal of CodeLabs is to bring Industry Level exposure to students. Students take full advantage of this lab to gain hands-on experience of the Industry. The objective was maintained with various sessions and Electronics Engineeringworkshops which brought consistency in the development of real-time applications. It is also serving as an incentive for the host universities to be involved in the training program. This is a great platform for students as well as developers. Some of the best developer programs took place in this very CodeLabs are - The Nano-Degree Certification program from Udacity, Computer Science Engineeringwith the support of APSSDC. CodeLabs started with Android Programming. This later continued with DT workshops, Civil EngineeringFront End Development, Mechanical EngineeringHackathons by GitHub, CSE(ArtificiaI Intelligence & Machine Learning), CSEIndo-Nordic Innovation Acceleration Cluster(Internet of Things), CSE(IoT and Cyber Security including Blockchain TechnologyINIAC),ArtificiaI Intelligence & Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence & Data ScienceNASA SpaceApps challenge.</span></spanbig>

<br big>The EWB(Engineers Without Borders) Student Wing of VVIT is with more than 120 students registering their names during the initial drive. The chapter's four cornerstones are societal welfare, leadership, competition, and bringing forth a deep-seated understanding towards valuing diverse opinions. The EWB will assist students in developing the empathy and industry-standard skills necessary to ensure a future of mutual growth. EWB works in over 68 countries and provides services to scholars from a variety of prestigious universities.<span style="font-size:medium;">&nbsp;</span></big></div> ==Faculty Innovation and Entrepreneurship==<big>VVIT highly encourages faculty to organize and participate in workshops, training sessions, national conferences, et cetera,.
