The college is absolutely the best for students who want to study technology.
Placements: Our college has maintained a 90% placement rate, reflecting strong academic and industry-focused training. The highest package is 90 LPA, the lowest is 3 LPA, and the average stands at 12 LPA, showing a solid career start for most students. Top recruiters include Microsoft, PhonePe, Cognizant, Deloitte, Infosys, Dell, Aveva, and Being. Most students are placed in Software Engineer roles, highlighting the college's strong programming and technical foundation. The curriculum focuses on industry-relevant skills like software development and problem-solving, with regular placement training to prepare students for interviews and real-world challenges.
Infrastructure: Our campus offers a vibrant and supportive environment for overall growth. With 24-hour Wi-Fi, students can study and work anytime. The newly built, spacious library is rich with books and digital resources, providing a perfect study atmosphere. Each department now has separate buildings, enhancing academic focus and accessibility. The addition of RV University nearby adds to the institution's prestige. Sports are equally encouraged, with well-maintained grounds and facilities for cricket, football, basketball, and indoor games. Regular tournaments and sports events promote fitness and team spirit. The campus truly balances academic excellence with personal and physical development.
Faculty: The teachers here are well-qualified, knowledgeable, and always ready to help students understand concepts clearly. Every semester includes at least one project, which helps students apply what they've learned and get a feel for real-world company projects. There are also skill labs and workshops that train students in hands-on technical skills, making them industry-ready. When it comes to exams, the difficulty level is moderate. If students stay attentive in class and do a quick revision, even a night's study is usually enough to pass. The focus is more on learning and applying concepts than just memorizing.
Other: 8th Mile will also happen every 2 years, it's a big fest. Canada Habba will happen where they organize different cultural activities.

Review of RVCE College of Engineering.
Placements: About 40% of students were placed in the course. The average package was around INR 20 LPA. Recruiting companies included Bosch, Intel, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, BookMyShow, and other big tech companies.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good and everything is kept clean and ready for use. The mess is okay, not the best, but meets expectations. The canteen is phenomenal, with great food, although it's expensive. It’s a big canteen with a nice outdoor tree area for sitting.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful, qualified, and ready to assist. Some are even great and encouraging. The curriculum has been revised many times, so it's up-to-date. The difficulty level is moderate, and you need 84% attendance to write exams for any subject.

My review of this college
Placements: Placements and job opportunities are out of this world. That can be one of the biggest driving forces for a student to join this college. RVCE is a brand, and every year, more than 100 companies visit the campus to hire resources. Internships and jobs are available, and the reason these students got placed was that they actually had some relevant skills and showed up in interviews conducted during campus drives. Good companies like L&T, Tech Mahindra, Geodesic, TCS, Infosys, Amazon, HDFC, ICICI, etc., were the top recruiters. The minimum package is from 3.5 LPA, and the maximum is 7 LPA.
Infrastructure: Hostel life is awesome. A very large area is occupied by the hostel in the college, with rooms having the required furniture, Wi-Fi, canteen, and mess (not compulsory). Students can move anywhere on campus 24×7. All festivals are celebrated in the hostels. Full freedom is given to students for good activities.
Faculty: Faculty are highly qualified and expect a lot of high-level thinking from the students. Every student is required to complete one project per semester, which is a non-academic project. These projects need to be done following software development life cycle techniques. Every semester, in every course, there are at least two labs a week, and they are conducted strictly according to the timetable. Exams called Internals are conducted in the second, third, and fourth months of every semester, and the semester end exams are conducted at the end.

Overall RVCE is good in terms of placement and studies.
Placements: As of my branch, EEE 85% of my seniors are nearly placed with the highest package being 31 LPA the lowest being 6 LPA and the average being around 12 to 12.5 LPA. As for other electronic branches, nearly 80% of students are placed with the highest being 41.1 LPA. The lowest is 5 LPA and the average is 14 LPA. As for computer branches, nearly 70% of students are placed (the percentage being low is due to high intake) the average package is 15 LPA the highest is around 90 LPA and the lowest is 6 - 4 LPA as an entire college has the highest package of 90 LPA. The average package is 13 LPA.
Infrastructure: Since the colleges are under construction nearly 30% of the colleges are inaccessible due to construction. The playground has become the parking area due to which sports can't be played where the lab and classrooms are well maintained and have a digital board due to now is your cooler you might feel hot in summertime. The quality of food in the mess and canteen is good as compared to the other colleges so in the food area you won't have many complaints.
Faculty: Most of the faculty members are Ph.D. holders and others are pursuing to get their Ph.D. They are well qualified due to so many Ph.D. holders. Many companies come to collaborate with professionals and other teachers and give them projects then the professors and other teachers choose the students to work with them on the project so the opportunities here are good. The curriculum is the same as that of the other colleges so it's not that different. Semester exams are not that difficult but still, you have to study well to score well.
Other: One of the most shocks that I got after joining the college was that it's getting under-constructed and that here there is an EL thing which is experiential learning where you have to meet teams with your friends or other branch members. They have to work on a model or prototype that solves any world problem they take it very seriously. You will be awarded marks for this and this is as important as your internal marks so if you plan on coming to RV remember to make a team in the starting stages only.

Overall experience of RV College of Engineering .
Placements: Placements are very good in my college. Every year, almost 90 percent of students get placed. The highest package received by my senior is 92 LPA, and the average package is about 18 LPA. The lowest is 4 LPA. Companies like PhonePe, Google, Microsoft, Mercedes-Benz etc. Are the top recruits of my college. New companies also offer very good packages.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is good in my college. Labs and classrooms lack new technology devices and new PCs. Recently, they opened a very good new library with lots of facilities and new technologies, but the old library lacks the new and the number of computers and infrastructure and charging sockets for laptops.
Faculty: Some teachers are good and some are literally bad in my college, but they have egos. Coming to the academics courses in the first year and some courses in the second are useless only for marks. Semester exams are comparatively easier than the CIEs; these are the difficult ones. The curriculum is too good in my college; there are lots of clubs and lots of opportunities as well.
Other: Campus surroundings are among the worst, highly polluted places, and extra-curricular activities are too good. Events are regularly arranged, and fests are arranged a little bit rarely. Connectivity is a very good thing in my college.
