Very much satisfied because of the opportunities and placements.
Placements: I have studied in the AI & ML branch. More than 70% of my course students got placed in TCS. Meesho offered a guy with 20 LPA, which was the highest of the year 2025. The average package is 4 LPA. TCS offered 3 levels of hiring. In Ninja, 20 students got placed for 4.5 LPA. In Digital, 9 students got placed for 6 LPA. In Prime, 1 student was selected for 9 LPA.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the classrooms is moderate, but in the labs, the facilities are excellent. We have access to every system in the lab. In the hostel, we have a computer lab facility. The food is above average. Medical facilities are also good. Sports are conducted every year at the college fest. The classrooms are fully digital.
Faculty: Our teachers are very qualified. They teach us by using real-world examples. The last semester's pass percentage of my course was 90%. Faculty can upload each topic in the modules of the respective course. They played a key role in the 2025 placements.
Other: My expectations are fulfilled by the college faculty. My overall experience of the college is memorable. I would recommend that future students try to join the college.

Placements are conducted in the year 2020.
Placements: The highest package in this course is 40 LPA and the average package is 3.5 LPA in any of the branches. Top recruiting companies are TCS, Cognizant, and Accenture. I don't say that everyone can get placed but most of the students get placements like 70-80%.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is the one most exciting thing to say because the college's infrastructure is so good as it was built in 1985. It is filled with full of plants and greenery which gives a very pleasant vibe in the college. The hostel is not that good and average with a minimum range of facilities and average food.
Faculty: Teachers are very highly qualified. They will clarify students' doubts and they never skip a class. The course that the college teaches is ready enough for the company level, and we can go to interviews just by reading what the college thinks. The course changes every four years. Semester exams are easy, and we can read for them before night and pass exams.

Placements: I don't think any student got placed through campus placement as out of 350 people, minimum 270 people are still struggling to find jobs as we don't have any on campus placement. Whatever job students get, comes from off campus only.
Infrastructure: The course in the college is easy to crack as there is nothing much tough in the college. Coming to hostel, the hostel premises are good and the hostel buildings are also very nice to see in terms of appearance but the food and hygiene conditions are not upto the mark but manageable.
Faculty: Faculty in the college is highly educated and have completed higher level of studies. The teaching standards are not that good as they could have been. Coming to exams, we have 2 mid exams for a semester followed by a semester exam and internal lab exam, external lab exams which are not that tough to crack.
Other: I chose this college because it is a Government University so my degree adds value to my career. Coming to the cultural events, once we had a cultural event in every month but gradually it decreased and we have only one fest every year.

It was a famous college during the golden days.
Placements: About 70-80% of students get placed after completing this course. The highest package offered is 40 LPA, while the average package is 3.5 LPA across any branch. Top recruiting companies include TCS, Cognizant, and Accenture. Although not everyone may secure a placement, most students do find job opportunities.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is one of the most exciting aspects to highlight. Built-in 1985, the campus is filled with plants and greenery, creating a pleasant atmosphere. However, the hostel facilities are not as impressive. They are average, offering minimal amenities and standard food options.
Faculty: Teachers are very highly qualified. They clarify the student's doubts, and they never skip a class. The course that the college teaches is ready enough for the company level.

A: 
{Source: B.E. / B.Tech students & alumni}

Effectiveness of Placement Cell for B.E./B.Tech Courses at Acharya Nagarjuna University

Unfortunately, according to multiple student reviews, the placement cell at Acharya Nagarjuna University is not effective:

* "Don't expect anything from the placement cell." (Student)
* "There is no placement cell in our college." (Alumni)
* "No placements from the last 6 years. Off-campus placements are the only option." (Student)
* "There is no single placement even for CSE branch. No intention to provide placements." (Student)

Additionally, some students mentioned that the placement cell is non-functional, and employees do not show interest in providing placements:

* "Only one person works in the placement cell, and he creates a WhatsApp group to give us information about other colleges' placements." (Student)
* "The placement cell is not functioning properly, and we have to rely on off-campus drives for placements." (Alumni)

It's essential to note that these reviews suggest that the placement cell is ineffective in providing job opportunities to students. However, some students reported success in securing jobs through off-campus drives and self-preparation.
