studied Master of Computer Applications at University of Hyderabad (2018)

Among Hyderabad Central University (HCU) and GITAM University Vizag, it is suggested that you go for Hyderabad Central University.

  • The faculty is much more interactive here, and are more than willing to stay back after work if guidance is required.
  • GITAM has better hostels than Hyderabad Central University.

Lastly, placements majorly depend on the individual and not on the institution. So, if you work hard no matter the institution, you will definitely secure a good placement offer from a reputed company.
