Manav Rachna University, Faculty of Engineering Faridabad B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. Yes, Manav Rachna University is a UGC-recognised private university established under the Haryana Private Universities Act. The B.Tech CSE programme is AICTE-approved. The university has received NAAC accreditation and has been ranked by NIRF. Students frequently ask about this on forums, and it is important to note that MRU (Manav Rachna University) and MRIIRS (Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies) are two separate institutions on the same campus - MRU is a university while MRIIRS is a deemed university. Ensure you check which institution you are applying to, as fee structures and programmes may differ slightly.

Ans. The B.Tech CSE Normal programme follows the standard 4-year curriculum. The B.Tech CSE (Hons.) variants require students to earn an additional 20 credits in a specific domain - such as AI & ML (with Xebia/HCL Guvi), Cyber Security & Threat Intelligence (with Quick Heal/Cisco), Full Stack Development (with Xebia), Gen AI (with Google Cloud), or Quantum Computing. These specialisations involve industry-delivered courses and certifications, and the annual fee for Hons. programmes is Rs. 3,33,800 compared to Rs. 3,05,800 for the normal programme. Students often ask whether the Hons. tag adds value - the industry certifications bundled with these programmes do provide a tangible advantage during placements.

Ans. MRU's CSE department has a strong placement record with 600+ MNCs and Indian corporates recruiting from campus. The highest CTC offered has been Rs. 60 LPA, and the average CTC for CSE graduates typically ranges between Rs. 4 LPA and Rs. 10 LPA depending on specialisation and individual performance. Top recruiters include companies from IT, consulting, and product sectors. The university's Career Resource and Corporate Development Centre (CRCDC) provides dedicated placement support including soft skills training, resume workshops, and mock interviews. Students should note that placement statistics are university-wide and not always broken down course-wise, so it is advisable to speak to current students or alumni for course-specific placement data.

Ans. Yes, MRU accepts multiple entrance exam scores for B.Tech CSE admission. Apart from JEE Main, students can apply through MRNAT (Manav Rachna's own entrance-cum-scholarship test), CUET, or SAT. MRNAT is particularly beneficial as it also serves as a scholarship test - scoring 90% or above can earn you a 100% tuition fee waiver. Students who have not appeared for JEE Main can still secure admission through MRNAT, which is conducted in two phases (Phase I in January and Phase II in April-May). JEE Main is not mandatory for admission to MRU.

Ans. Hostel accommodation at MRU is optional and not mandatory. The campus offers both boys' and girls' hostels with multiple room categories ranging from 2-seater AC rooms to 6-seater non-AC rooms. For AY 2026-27, hostel fees (inclusive of mess, laundry, medical care, and insurance) range from Rs. 1,72,100 to Rs. 2,33,000 per year depending on the room type. A caution deposit of Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 20,000 is charged separately and is refundable upon leaving. Students from Delhi-NCR often prefer to commute, as MRU provides a GPS-tracked bus service from Delhi and Gurugram. Hostel allotment is done by the competent authority and fees must be paid via Demand Draft after formal allotment.

Ans. This is one of the most frequently asked questions on student forums. MRU follows the UGC refund policy guidelines. If a student withdraws before the commencement of classes, a processing fee is deducted and the remaining amount is refunded. The exact refund schedule is available on the official MRU website under the Refund Policy section. Students are advised to check the specific refund policy for AY 2026-27 before paying fees, especially if they are waiting for results from other institutions. The caution deposit paid for hostel accommodation is refundable separately, subject to no dues clearance.
