Indeed, other branches except for civil engineering get much more placements which eventually lead us not to choose our core branch campus to get hired.

Keeping this in mind, the university management has established practical laboratories for all the courses that are conducted in every department.

Other: There are many courses in this college, like NCC and NSS, in which we are given discipline.

I would like to suggest this college to every student I know for admission.

Placements: Of course, RNTU is one of the best, but I don't think it has the highest chance of placement. Fastly, but placement and internship from our college are actually given, and the percentage of students who got internships is 80-90%. Overall, a good college.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is good, and the hostel is also good. The security level is safe for students, but as we know, good food in the hostel is not expected. The facilities provided and hostel rooms are good, and overall RNTU is a good one.

Faculty: The faculty of RNTU is good just like the university. Exams are continuous, and many events, even small ones, are organized and celebrated. The pass percentage is, I guess, 40%. Teachers are helpful to students, and the way of teaching and everything is nice.

Other: Actually, I only want a degree in it. For humanities students, one of the best starting courses is B.A. I think they should take objective tests for preparation. Activities and events are all good.
