4Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

This is the best university in the state of Andhra Pradesh.

Placements: 80% of our students from our departments are placed in various companies like Moschip, Capgemini, Infosys, etc. The average package in our course is 9 to 13 LPA. 90 % of our students are getting internships every year. Many roles in the VLSI domain are offered to our students.

Infrastructure: Every department has Wi-Fi facility in our college, but sometimes it does not work properly, our management is working on it. We have one of the best academic libraries with plenty of books across our state. Hostels are average, but the mess food is good, with a menu of non veg three times a week. University premises also have a medical dispensary.

Faculty: Exams are difficult enough to challenge the students on their academic excellence. Faculty members in our department are well qualified and experienced. All the faculty are post graduates and Ph.D. holders. Our curriculum mainly focuses on the root basics of the subject.

Other: A tech fest is held every year when many colleges across the state visit our university for workshops, hackathons, etc. We can also have good communication with other students and faculty members at that time.

The college has strong academics and a decent campus.

Placements: Around 80-90% of students are placed. The highest package is 20 LPA, the lowest is 3.5 LPA, and the average is 5-6 LPA. Top recruiters are TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Accenture, Capgemini, and Amazon. 40% of students got internships in TCS, Virtusa, and Deloitte. The roles offered are SDE, analyst, and engineer.

Infrastructure: UCE Kakinada (JNTUK) offers a well-developed infrastructure with spacious classrooms, campus-wide Wi-Fi, modern labs, and a large central library with digital access. Each department has seminar halls for academic events. The hostels are separate for boys and girls, with basic shared rooms and mess facilities offering average South Indian meals. A canteen is available for snacks and fast food. Wi-Fi is accessible in hostels with some limitations. Sports, medical facilities, and cleanliness are adequate. Overall, the campus provides a supportive environment for academics, though food and maintenance could improve.

Faculty: The faculty at UCE Kakinada are qualified, helpful, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good, with a focus on fundamentals. The curriculum is mostly relevant, but needs a minor update for industry trends. Semester exams are moderate, and the pass percentage is around 85-90%.

I'm dissatisfied with faculty, poor placements in 2025, bad infrastructure, and facilities

Placements: Out of 60 around 25 students have been placed most of them are girls. The campus placements have been very poor this time for us. L&T compared last time took around 25 students but this time they have taken only 2 girls. Packages are also very less. The highest is around 8 LPA from JSW and Reliance offered around 6 LPA least. Recruiting companies are Cognizant, TCS, etc. The package offered is around 3.5 LPA to 4 LPA. For internships around 5 students secured by companies like Apollo Tyres, Galaxy, Coromandel, etc., are some of the companies that students got placed in.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is very bad. They have very old equipment which doesn't work properly. Most of the time, labs have been upgraded recently so I can say slightly improving now (computer labs and EDC labs). Classrooms are average. Wi-Fi is practically dead and doesn't work at all. The library has AC and a variety of books and also love the digital library.

Faculty: Faculty most of them are contract-based. The professors we have are very less and they visit the department very often, most of them can't complete the syllabus in time so exams are a bit difficult, and we have to study by ourselves is the best thing better not depending on the faculty. Course curriculum is also dumb if they have a subject in a particular semester they should also have the corresponding lab but no our college is different and has the lab and subject in different semesters.

Other: Can't expect much since this is a government college, fee is only Rs. 10,000 per year so worth it for students who study themselves. The good thing is that at least we have a gym and grounds to play. Events and fests are good we conduct it ourselves and we enjoy it. Faculty and department should be improved and they should also change the syllabus pattern.

It is located in Kakinada. Very good college. Overall, it is better.

Placements: It is a very good college in terms of everything. 80-90% of people were placed in my course in multiple companies. The average package is a 4-5 LPA. A very good student will get into an 8 LPA. There are several MNCs taking interviews in our college. Top roles like data analyst, data scientist, etc, will be there if you want to give interviews.

Infrastructure: The library is massive. It has all sorts of books for engineering. The staff is also very good and supportive. The hostel is also very good. Cleaning and maintenance will be top-notch.

Faculty: Teachers are very responsible towards you and clear your doubts very clearly. There are enough staff to complete your whole syllabus, and well-experienced teachers they are. Semester exams are very tough when compared to other colleges. Pass percentage 90%.

Fantastic environment and nice faculty.

Placements: Above 50% of students are placed from the campus interviews. The highest package is 12 LPA, the medium package is 6 LPA, and the lowest package is 4 LPA. L&T is the top recruiter for our course. About 40% of students got internships with companies like NCC, Ashoka Buildcon, etc. Role offered is in designing.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure and labs are good for our civil course, equipment is well-maintained, and classrooms are also neat and clean. The quality of facilities in the hostel is good, and the food also tastes awesome in the hostel and canteen. Facilities for games and medical facilities are good.

Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable and they explain neatly, also teach us patiently, and they neatly clarify our doubts. The course curriculum is very much related to the perspective of industrial work, and they will be ready to face the industry tasks. The semester exams are a bit difficult, but you can easily write if you have studied. The pass percentage is 80%.

Other: I chose this course because I am interested in doing civil engineering. If our course had more outside work rather than teaching us in class, it would be beneficial, as our work is related to the outside world. The above extra-curricular activities and etc., are conducted, and well performed.

Only suitable for students who have clarity about what to do.

Placements: About 70-80% of students are placed in my course. The highest package offered is 42 lpa, the lowest is 3.5 lpa. On average, the package is 6-8 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Galax e-Solutions, MS chip, Efftronics, TCS, Accenture, Cognizant, Commvault, Tejas network, MathWorks, etc. Almost all the students who got placed are offered a 6-month internship in their company. Top roles offered are Software Developer, Data Analyst, Web Designer, Hardware Designer, etc.

Infrastructure: All the basic facilities, such as Wi-Fi, Library, Digital Classrooms, and Indoor and Outdoor Stadium, are also available. The quality of all these amenities is very basic. The facilities in my hostel and the quality of food need huge improvement. They are very basic and have very little comfort.

Faculty: Yes, the teachers are quite knowledgeable. All the Professors and Assistant Professors are Ph.D. holders and have wonderful knowledge in their respective fields. The course curriculum is somewhat relevant, and it is being regulated to make students industry-ready. In the coming years, the curriculum will be such that students will become industry-ready.
