The college is good.
Placements: Placements are not very good, for 50 members, nearly 10 are placed. This college is not very good for placements, but for GATE, it is good. The highest package is 8 LPA to 9 LPA, and the average is 6 LPA in this college.
Infrastructure: Our department is very good to see, and our faculty is also very experienced. In the Andhra Pradesh state, our Jayanti Kakinada faculty is the most expensive faculty. That will teach teachers from their experience, and teaching is well in this college, but not short and narrow, but it is well.
Faculty: Semester exams are very difficult for us. Our curriculum is very good, it contains all, but our exams are very difficult, and so many members will fail in our college. College staff is very busy, and there have no time for us. If we want to study, we can study, or if we want to play, we can play.

One of the best college for academics and placements with good campus life.
Placements: Very good placements in this college. Good core companies come to our college. Almost every student in our college is getting placed. The placement percentage is around 70 percent for all the branches, but majorly CSE students get more placements, such as Impetus, Infosys, and Visista.
Infrastructure: Classroom infrastructure is very good with Wi-Fi facilities, digital boards, and projectors. We also have separate libraries for separate departments and a central library with Wi-Fi and AC facilities. Hostels are okay with average food quality. We also have a dispensary on our campus for medical purposes.
Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified with good knowledge. They also solve doubts in the classroom, but they skip topics if time is not sufficient, and they take extra classes. In this college, exams are quite difficult with a very hard syllabus and tough question papers. They also conduct workshops for every semester.
Other: Teachers are supportive with good career guidance. We also have a placement cell for any students with startup ideas. Fests are held twice or thrice per year. Students also receive scholarships from different sources.

Good placement and satisfied with the teaching and infrastructure of the college.

Better placements with good repetition companies and good packages. 8 LPA is the best package, and 4 LPA is the least package. Good guidance is provided in placement training and other activities.
Infrastructure: Hostels are old, but the new hostel construction is going on. Already, they have constructed a new hostel for 1st years, and a 4th year hostel was built in 2019. For the remaining, a new hostel is being constructed. Departments have good infrastructure, and they are developing labs up to date.
Faculty: The teachers are qualified and knowledgeable. They have completed PhDs in their respective subjects. The curriculum designed by the college is so relevant. The semester exam is a little difficult, so it is up to us to improve our knowledge. Each department has an 80% pass percentage.

Good college. Worth studying for oneself.
Placements: Almost every student in our college gets very good companies. The highest package is nearly 20 LPA, and the lowest is 4 LPA. The top recruiting company is Moschip, where almost all got internships. Top roles offered are as an analog engineer and a digital engineer.
Infrastructure: I never went to college, but there is a facility of Wi-Fi. The quality of the facilities in our hostel, the quality of food available in the mess and canteen, sports, and games are above average. Sometimes there is no Wi-Fi in the hostel. The ground facilities are also good.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is very good. The teachers help when we have doubts. The course curriculum is relevant to the industry, and the syllabus is also related to GATE. Semester exams are tough. The pass rate is about 75 percent.
Other: I am interested in electronics, so I chose this course because it is the best thing that I have seen. This college has freedom. I think the lab facilities in the college must be improved. There are very few events.

I am absolutely satisfied with our department because it got so many GATE ranks in 2024.
Placements: Almost every student in our college gets placed in a very good company. The highest package is about 24 LPA, and the lowest package is 4 LPA. The average package is around 10 LPA. The top recruiting companies are Moschip Technologies and TCS. Almost 90 percent of students got internships from my course in the companies I mentioned above.

Infrastructure: There are Wi-Fi facilities in the classrooms, labs, and library also. The infrastructure of classrooms and the library is very good. The quality of food available in the mess and canteen is very good. There is also a dispensary which has very good facilities. Many sports and games competitions are conducted every year.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They have so many types of experience, and they give so much guidance to our careers. The teaching quality is excellent. The course curriculum is very relevant, as it prepares the students for industry-ready skills. The course curriculum is very relevant to the GATE exam. The semester exams are somewhat difficult in this college. This pass percentage is 80 percent.
Other: I chose this course because I have a strong interest in electronics, semiconductors, and VLSI technologies. I wish that there were mini-projects in every semester. In this college, the fests are very few. In a year, there are only two fests. There are so many extracurricular activities in our college, like clubs. There are so many types of clubs, like singing clubs, dancing clubs, etc. Many scholarship organizations also come to our college and give scholarships to poor and needy students. The campus surroundings are very good, and it is located in a city.

Good results with no teacher.
Placements: JNTUK can have around 80-90 percent of its students placed in top courses. The highest package is 35 LPA, the average package is around 5 LPA, and the lowest package is 3 LPA. Top companies recruiting students from JNTUK are TCS, Infosys, and Amazon. Around 10 percent of students secured internships at Infosys, Zoho, and Amazon. Robotics plays a major role primarily for developers and analysts.
Infrastructure: JNTUK has good academic infrastructure (labs, library, Wi-Fi) and good facilities. Hostel facilities are available, but the quality of each is ok. Mess food and medical facilities are available on the campus. There are large sports fields and equipment for various sports on campus.
Faculty: JNTUK faculty is very helpful, and they treat everyone with respect. This helps students move forward in their lives. Curriculum is relevant, but companies are looking for something else, this causes confusion among students, and there should be someone to work on this topic.
Other: The college is good, but the facilities are lacking, such as water and other resources like bookshops inside.

credits in that semester.

B.Tech students who obtains their degrees under R16 regulations ie. 2016-17 
admitted batch onwards (2017-18 batch onwards for lateral entry scheme). 

Equivalent Percentage = (CGPA – 0.75) X 10
