The V.L.B Janakiammal College of Engineering & Technology is a self-financing engineering college in located at Coimbatore, India.

The College was established by the V.L.B. Trust in the year 1985, a charitable organization founded by the great philanthropist and industrialist, the late Shri.V.L.BalaKrishna Naidu. Since its inception, it has been relentlessly serving the society by promoting engineering education to the common man and the rural masses. Ms.S.Malarvizhi, Chairperson and Managing Trustee and Dr.S.C. Natesan, Principal are at the helm of the administration of the college. They are supported by a team of experienced faculty, skilled technical staff and excellent non-teaching staff. Housed in an area of 130 acres, the college offers its students physical infrastructure facilities on the most modern lines.

It is a private school affiliated with Anna University. It offers both undergraduate & postgraduate education. It was awarded its accreditation status by the NBA (National Board of Accreditation) in 2004 for Mechanical, Electronics and Communication engineering and Civil Engineering. Eventually Computer Science department withdrew from the application.

Undergraduate Engineering courses offered includes Civil Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical, Electronics and Communication engineering, Mechanical Engineering & Information Technology. In addition to this, the institution offers Post Graduate degrees such as Master of Computer Applications, Master of Business Administration and Master of Engineering in Computer Science.

It is located in Kovaipudur, within the Coimbatore border, about 30 km from Palakkad. Due to its proximity to Kerala and the relative lack of engineering colleges in Kerala, a considerable number of Malayalees study here. It is in tune with the number of Malayalee students in other Coimbatore colleges.
