National Institute of Technology Warangal

NIT Warangal, established in 1959 and India's first REC, was upgraded to NIT status in 2002. Located in Telangana, its 248-acre urban campus houses ~5,800 students, 327 faculty, and robust academic facilities. NITW consistently ranks among India’s top NITs due to its faculty strength, research output, and alumni network. Placement is a major strength—top recruiters offer strong packages in branches like CSE, ECE, and Biotech, with average offers often surpassing ₹20–30 LPA in good years. While reviews mention that hostel food and living conditions occasionally draw critique, core strengths in academics and placements outweigh facility concerns. NIT Warangal remains a benchmark public engineering institute combining steady discipline, vibrant research, and high student engagement.
