Project Eloquence

VIT aims to produce professionals who have excellent communication skills in addition to cutting edge, state of the art technical abilities. The importance of English in this global world has strengthened the need to excel in the language. “Project Eloquence” was initiated in the beginning of the year 2019 by Department of English, School of Social Sciences and Languages to improve the language proficiency of the students. An objective English Proficiency Test (EPT) is conducted for the students to determine their proficiency levels. Based on the levels the students are taught courses that cater to their existing levels of language ability. The beneficial outcome of this would relate to the fact that students are given challenges and exercises that commensurate with their abilities. Staff members are also given training in English and communication skills. With a focus on clarity and adherence to global standards, “Project Eloquence” is expected to play a key role in taking VIT to the next rung among the universities of the world.
