UCT is a SPECIALISED institute (Chemical Engineering, Food Technology, Textile Technology) - not a general engineering college offering CSE/ECE/mechanical. Different from 'University College of Engineering (UCE), Osmania University' which is a separate, older, general-engineering constituent college. The previous version of this profile incorrectly used generic engineering content (CSE recruiters, TS EAMCET general branches) - corrected.

2024 batch

Per NIRF-linked reporting, 65 UG students were placed with a median package around โ‚น5 LPA. This is a small, specialised chemical/process-engineering-oriented placement pool, not a CSE-driven tech-recruiter pipeline - relevant recruiters are chemical, pharma and process industries rather than IT services or product companies.
