ORGANISATIONAL PROFILE
About VJTI
The Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute was given its present title on January 26, 1997.
Founded in 1887, it was then known as Victoria Jubilee Technical Institute.
The Institute is reputed for offering premier courses in engineering and technology at
diploma, degree and post graduate levels for over three thousand students. Twenty seven
courses are offered at the undergraduate, postgraduate, diploma, postgraduate diploma and
post diploma levels. A full time Ph.D. programme has been started in 2006-2007 and a total
of 108 students are on roll.
The Institute was granted financial and academic autonomy from June 21, 2004. As a result,
the autonomous VJTI has implemented the revised syllabus for the students since June 2004
at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels by implementing much valued credit system.
The revised scheme of examinations, which follows a grading system and later grade point
system, has been implemented. An important part of curriculum is the practically oriented
project at the final year of graduation and the dissertations compiled by the postgraduate
students.
Significant changes under autonomy are the setting up of Distance Education Programmes in
collaboration with IITs; upgradation of the existing library to a digital library. Mention must
be made that postgraduate students can access the journals online throughout the week.
Under the World Bank grant(s) – TEQIP I & II the Institute has implemented several projects
to establish itself as a world class technological Institute. The modernization offers excellent
central computing facilities to students, access to improved laboratory and workshop
facilities. The faculty at the Institute is recognized for its Testing and Consultancy work.
Realizing the potential of the Institute, reputed industries have sponsored laboratories - for
instance, the high voltage laboratory, courtesy Siemens; and the Computational Fluid
Dynamics laboratory, courtesy B.A.R.C.
Several students‘ activities such as gymkhana, social day and intra/inter collegiate
programmes and the college magazine "Nirmaan" serve as a platform to enhance students‘
soft skills and personality. The Institute has also started its own newsletter from January
2005.
Individual student‘s profiles through departmental brochures are centrally positioned with the
"Training and Placement" office of the Institute. This office competently liaises with over
hundred companies and successfully places students for employment and in-plant training
through campus recruitement programmes.

going so that we can start collecting donations from our overseas alumni.
We are also actively working on getting the necessary certification for classifying this
entity as Non-Profit organization and subsequently we shall be granted a Tax- exemption

new website has been encouraging. More than 8000 Alumni cum students are registered
on the website and the number of page views has been steadily increasing. During the
year, about 4-5 webinars in areas of current interest were conducted and the response was
very good. Incidentally, even today a webinar titled ―Achieving Career Success in
Turbulent times‖ was conducted.
In addition, about 7-8 prominent Alumni (like Mr.Amit Chandra, Dr. V.N. Gupchup
to name a few) and a few Professors at VJTI (like Dr.Rohin Daruwalla) have been
interviewed. The same have been posted on our website as well as Facebook page of
VJTI Alumni Association. Likes have been constantly increasing. A mobile application
has also been launched which has good features like Chats, Messages, Mentorship, Job

Debate & Literary Arts Society (DLA)
Introduction
The Debate & Literary Arts (DLA) Society has been a platform for VJTI‘s young engineers to
showcase their talent in fields outside the technical realm.
Debate and Literary Arts are essential in today‘s increasingly competitive world as excellence is now
standard and the extra ordinary is now the ordinary. It‘s about pushing your mind into places you
never imagined.
This is what is needed for one to succeed in the real world and we, the
DLA society, hope to guide the students along this path.
Objectives
The DLA Society will work towards achieving four major objectives:
1. Preparing students for debates, group discussions and the like, required in today‘s competitive
learning and job arena, where students‘ verbal skills are tested extensively. The DLA Society aims to
hold regular group discussions, competitions and other activities where students‘ will be able to work
on their communication skills as well as foster a sense of healthy competition.
105
2. Exposing students to subjects other than those associated with their engineering syllabus. For a
student to be equipped with the necessary skills to face the real world, he/she would require a holistic
education. Therefore, the DLA society aims to organize regular seminars and lectures on Economics,
Literature, Business, Creative Writing, etc.
3. Through VJ News, the official VJTI newsletter, we create a platform where students can nurture
and hone their writing skills. We hope to inculcate in students a passion for reading, writing and
debating which would only help them in the long run.
4. Encourage a better understanding of the subjects they learn in college, by organizing interactive
seminars and lectures by eminent research fellows as well as authors of various engineering
textbooks.
Year-round Activities
The VJTI MUN Club
The Model United Nations is an academic simulation of the United Nations that aims to
educate participants about civics, current events, effective communication, globalization and
multilateral diplomacy. In standard Model UN students take on roles as diplomats, research a
country, investigate international issues, debate, deliberate, consult, and then develop solutions to
world problems.
During a conference, participants must employ a variety of communication and critical
thinking skills in order to represent the policies of their country. These skills include public
speaking, group communication, research, policy analysis, active listening, negotiating, conflict
resolution, note taking, and technical writing. Hence to equip our students with all these
important skills we propose to hold practice MUN sessions which would also familiarize the
students with its lengthy protocols and procedures.
The ‗VJ MUN‘ organized by the DLA society completed 11 years this January2016 ,and is
now well renowned and is recognized as a National MUN and is now also affiliated to the UNIC (
India and Bhutan) We have seen participants from as far away Aachen-Germany, BITS-Goa, Rajiv
Gandhi National University of Law-Punjab, IIT-B, ICT Mumbai, etc.50% of VJMUN participants are
usually VJTI students.
Thus the VJMUN has also given the students of VJTI a platform for interaction with their
peers from all over the country as well as from abroad and has thus helped in mixing of
thoughts ideas as well as helped the students to network with their peers.
In addition to this, many students from our college have participated and won in National
MUN‘s in part due to the knowledge, experience & encouragement provided by the DLA. We hope
to take this a step further by equipping our institute‘s students with enough expertise so as to be able
to participate in international MUN‘s such as the Harvard World MUN, we plan to achieve this by
means of this MUN Club.
The VJTI Quiz Club
In today‘s competitive world, a student‘s knowledge of current affairs, History, Business, etc. is
vital in not only enabling him/her to obtain a job, but also for admission to a post-graduate course.
Employers and universities value a student who is cognizant of the world around him/her, and any
knowledge of subjects apart from his/her academic syllabus is appreciated greatly.
Participation in National Festivals/Competitions
A student‘s participation in competitions outside VJTI is essential for his/her overall development.
They can interact with their peers in other colleges and network with like-minded people. The
DLA Society will represent VJTI at all Inter-College festivals involving Debates, MUNs, and
literary activities.
Inter-College Debate Competitions
In the upcoming academic year, the DLA society plans to schedule debates with other colleges in
Mumbai such as the Institute of Chemical Technology (ICT), St. Xavier's College, and IIT-Bombay.
Debates help in the development of speaking skills, which are required in interviews. Debates and

Theme: The theme of the quiz was ‗E-Commerce‘. The theme was chosen because it laid a good
foundation for the beginning of the quiz series. The world is now more than ever is using internet.
And thus people don‘t shy from shopping online.
Thus this mix led to the e-commerce theme.
Event Description: The event began at 5:15 pm, since the students after finishing their college
lectures reached at MSH. All the participants were seated and given basic introduction to the format
of the quiz. This time was also utilized to inform the participants about the rules of the quiz.
108
Once the participants were ready, at 5:30 pm they were presented with the first round of the quiz
which is the General Quiz. The rules were simple, the participants were given a sheet of questions
with multiple choice answers which they have to answer in 15 minutes. At the end 6 teams with
highest scores would move on to the second round which is the Main Quiz.
The series was started to let people know and gain more knowledge about basic things we usually
overlook. Simple things like the online bazaars fascinate people and thus was the best choice to begin
with. Although participants thought that they were smart enough, the tricky questions gave
information that nobody had ever predicted. A new and wild quiz competition from E-Cell brought a
new wave of excitement among the students of VJTI and we look forward to have more successful
instalments.
