Good college but if you want to get into a good company opt for a college which has placements.
Placements: There are no placements in campus, but faculty will say if any job drive goes on, they will try to put almost all students into good companies and also they will assign every student for project work where each candidate get absorbed into that particular company.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not up to mark. The lab equipment is very limited, and we must adjust to what we were given there. There are research labs also where everything is fully equipped. PhD research scholars use it and if we want to use it we can use them, and faculty is excellent and they take care of every student.
Faculty: All the faculty are very well-educated, and all have PhD doctorates. Every faculty have more than 15 years of experience, and they are very friendly to everyone. Coming to course curriculum the syllabus what we have it matches the level of national exams like CSIR, etc. 90% of the syllabus was taken from CSIR syllabus and practicals are up to mark.
Other: College day, sports day, integration and national seminars will be conducted by different departments, etc.

Q:   Is B.E. / B.Tech at Acharya Nagarjuna University worth the investment?

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

B.E./B.Tech at Acharya Nagarjuna University: Worth the Investment?

Infrastructure: The infrastructure at Acharya Nagarjuna University is decent, with some improvements needed. While the classrooms and labs are good, the hostel facilities are subpar, especially regarding Wi-Fi and food. However, the library is well-maintained and has a vast collection of books.

Placements: Placements at Acharya Nagarjuna University are limited, particularly for non-IT streams. The highest package offered is around INR9 LPA, while the average is around INR4 LPA. Fewer than 20% of students receive internships, and the placement process is mostly dependent on individual efforts.

Course Curriculum and Faculty: The course curriculum is somewhat outdated, and the faculty is generally helpful but not outstanding. The teaching style is traditional, and self-study is emphasized.

Overall: Considering the limitations mentioned above, whether or not B.E./B.Tech at Acharya Nagarjuna University is worth the investment largely depends on personal preferences and expectations. If you're looking for a strong industry connection and cutting-edge curriculum, you might consider alternative options. However, if you prioritize affordability and a relatively stable educational institution, Acharya Nagarjuna University could still be a viable choice.
