Jntuk petroleum engineering course review.
Placements: During covid time placement are less and even in 1 placement only 5 people were selected out of 50 members. Times are difficult during covid but the subject we learned didn't leave us like an abandoned child. Overall it was great before Covid time. We had IT tours during iur course that helped us learn a lot during those 15 days visit to several Ongc's in north india. I have been offered upstream data analyst in teach mahindra. And we do have lot of opportunities in IT especially for petroleum associate.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure, labs, classrooms that you'll SEE in our college will be no match to a corporate college. There are laboratories with full equipment and computers for each student to learn and create projects. Coming to sports, great opportunities were provided for our university players. Our canteen facility is not that good, I would say this goes for a 1 star.
Faculty: We have well knowledge faculty. Our semester exams would be quite challenging due to a differ course that has few resources to study. We have drill engineering, product engineering, reservoir engineering. These three course if properly learned gives you all insights of what is actually happening in extracting oil.
Other: I haven't planned to study petrol engineering. But life steered me to pursue this course which I won't regret. Petrol engineering is a core subject that offers in depth knowledge of the whole oil and gas life cycle to retail marketing. Attending GATE exam and getting a good score will help you be in a position that earn you more than we deserve.

I will definitely recommend this college.
Placements: Only software companies recruited students here. For other branches like petroleum engineering, there were no core companies. While joining, we were told that core companies and software companies would come and recruit us. It didn't happen. At least a few candidates were hired by software firms.
Infrastructure: All the labs were perfect. Some equipments did not work. They did not change them. Classrooms were good. Air conditioning was present for final-year students in our department. The remaining departments were old. The hostels for first and final-year students were good, but not for second and third-year students. Medical facilities were available.
Faculty: Teachers were helpful. They encourage us every time. We could enjoy their teaching. All the materials were shared with us. Everything related to the course and the curriculum was good. The difficulty of the exams was medium. If we understand the concepts, exams are easy.

I am a bit dissatisfied with our course.
Placements: In our course, about 40% of the students got placed. All the placements are from software companies. None of us got a job on our core side. The salary packages offered range from 4 LPA to 6 LPA. If there are placements from the core side, then it will be much satisfactory for our course.
Infrastructure: We have facilities like projectors in every classroom, Wi-Fi, good infrastructure labs, and a good seminar hall. The quality of food and facilities in the hostel is average. But sometimes it will be disappointing for us to be here.
Faculty: We have qualified faculty members who are good enough to nourish our learning skills. The course curriculum is related a bit. Semester exams are a bit difficult and the evaluation is also tough. The pass percentage will vary between 70 to 90%.

It was a good college when we started studying, but it's reputation is in downfall now.
Placements: Our course is somewhat special. All the seats will be filled without any vacancy. We don't have any placements from our core related companies. We have to try on our own to get jobs. We usually get IT companies to recruit us. 3-4 Lacs per annum is what we get as starting package.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available throughout the college. Cass rooms are good. Labs are good but equipment. Is old and sometimes won't work. Hostels and quality of food are average. Some hostels are very old and need renovation. A big library is there but petroleum engineering books are not available.
Faculty: Some faculty are good and friendly and knowledgeable. Some don't have thorough knowledge they don't take teaching seriously. They don't sign records if they have grudge against students. High authority are full of corruption. We have seen some incidents regarding corruption published in local news paper. Exams are normal difficulty but exams schedule is different, daily exams with no gaps.

This college provides good infrastructure and students enjoy it a lot.
Placements: Around 50% of students are placed. The highest salary package offered is 7 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 3 LPA. TCS, Cognizant, Infosys, Wipro, and Accenture are the top recruiting companies. Till now, no students are placed based on this course, but some are placed in software companies. Top roles are offered based on the interview.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good, and laboratories are also provided. The food is very good except for dinner, and good development students can gain in sports and games. Canteen is not much popular, but medical facilities are good in this college.
Faculty: Faculty members are good and helpful. The exams are difficult and the average pass percentage is 70%. Students are able to visit various industries based on their courses along with India through industrial tours. But from previous year, due to pandemic industry tours are suspended.
Other: I opted for this course, because of my interest in it. I liked this core course. Fests, events, and campus crowds are very good and students enjoy them a lot.
