What Gokaraju Rangaraju Institute of Engineering and Technology does

Gokaraju Rangaraju Institute of Engineering and Technology (GRIET) is a private engineering college established in 1997 in Hyderabad, Telangana, under the Gokaraju Rangaraju Educational Society (GRES). The institution operates from a 24-acre campus in Bachupally, Kukatpally, and offers undergraduate B.Tech programs across nine specializations (CSE, AIML, Data Science, IT, ECE, EEE, Mechanical, Civil, CSBS) and postgraduate M.Tech programs in five areas (CSE, Structural Engineering, VLSI, Power Electronics, Design for Manufacturing). Admissions are routed through the government-mandated EAPCET counselling process for 70% of seats, with the remaining 30% filled via management and NRI quotas, and lateral entry through ECET for diploma holders. Tuition pricing is government-regulated at ₹1,60,500 per year for B.Tech (2025-26 batch) and ₹86,400 per year for M.Tech, supplemented by special fees, NBA fees, and rank-based scholarships.

The technology stack supporting academic delivery includes KOHA-based library automation with cloud-based OPAC, a High Performance Computing Center, an AICTE IDEA Lab and Incubation Centre, a DST-FIST sponsored Scanning Electron Microscope (worth ₹1.2 crore) with EDAX and Core Scan, a NABL-accredited GRMTL material testing laboratory, and Centers of Excellence in Material Processing and Characterization, AI/ML, and Applied Blockchain Technologies. The institute integrates learning platforms including Moodle, NPTEL/SWAYAM, Coursera, EdX, Infosys Springboard, and IIT Bombay Spoken Tutorials, alongside skill development partnerships with AWS, IBM, Oracle, Google, Microsoft, SAP, Autodesk, and CISCO.

GRIET generates revenue through annual tuition fees (subscription model), government grants (TEQIP-II World Bank grant of ₹400 Lakhs), research and consultancy projects, scholarship endowments, and placement-driven industry engagement. The Training and Placement Cell coordinates with software, hardware, manufacturing, and maintenance industries for campus recruitment, while a Finishing School provides remedial support for academically weak students. The institution holds NAAC A++ accreditation (CGPA 3.55, valid Feb 2021-Feb 2026), NBA accreditation across 10 programs, UGC Autonomous status through 2030-31, AICTE approval, NIRF 101-150 ranking band (2023-2024), and Careers 360 AAAA rating, with permanent affiliation to JNTUH.
