Which B.Tech branch group should you pick at AU?
Branch group
Materials and bio
2 branches. Open seat closes from 21,113 to 22,725 in 2025. AP EAPCET regular seats only.
Pick it if:
You want a core job in metals or process plants: JSW, a steel maker, made 55 offers on this campus for the 2023 batch.
You want a low fee: these branches take only regular seats, at INR 1.78 Lakhs in tuition for four years.
Your rank is past 20,000: Biotechnology closed at 22,725 on an open seat in 2025, so it is within reach.
Skip it if:
You expect an easy seat with a good rank to spare: Biotechnology closed later than every Computing, Electronics and Core branch in 2025.
You want mostly software jobs: the placement report opened most IT drives to CSE, IT, ECE and EEE, not to these branches.
Computing
3 branches. Open seat closes from 1,043 to 6,933 in 2025. AP EAPCET for all; AUEET self-support seats in 1 of them.
Pick it if:
You want an IT job from campus: TCS, Accenture and Hexaware opened their drives to CSE and IT students in the placement report.
Your AP EAPCET rank is inside 7,000: CSE closed at 1,043 and IT at 6,933 on open seats in 2025.
You can pay for a self-support seat: self-support CSE costs INR 8.20 Lakhs for four years, against INR 1.78 Lakhs on a regular seat.
Skip it if:
You need the state to pay your fee: the AUEET brochure says self-support seats get no state scheme and no scholarship.
Your rank is past 7,000: no branch in this group closed later than 6,933 on an open seat in 2025.
Marine and earth
3 branches. Open seat closes from 11,660 to 69,112 in 2025. AP EAPCET regular seats only.
Pick it if:
You want a job that is not in IT: Geo-Informatics students were eligible for some IT drives in the placement report as well, alongside CSE and ECE.
Your rank is between 11,000 and 25,000: Naval Architecture closed at 11,660 and Geo-Informatics at 24,333 on open seats in 2025.
You want the lowest fee: these branches take only regular seats, at INR 1.78 Lakhs in tuition for four years.
Skip it if:
You want a self-support seat: none of these branches is offered through AUEET, so AP EAPCET is the only way in.
You want a branch that many students chase: Environmental closed at 69,112 in 2025, the latest close on this campus.
Electronics
3 branches. Open seat closes from 1,906 to 8,131 in 2025. AP EAPCET for all; AUEET self-support seats in 2 of them.
Pick it if:
You want core or IT roles: Schneider Electric opened its drive to ECE and EEE, and EY took circuit branch students, in the placement report.
Your rank is inside 2,000: ECE closed at 1,906 on an open seat in 2025, second only to CSE.
You want a self-support seat at a lower fee than CSE: self-support ECE costs INR 6.20 Lakhs and EEE INR 4.20 Lakhs for four years.
Skip it if:
You are counting on a regular EEE seat: no open seat close for EEE was published for 2025, so ask the counselling desk first.
You need a hostel room on a self-support seat: rooms go to regular students first and to self-support students only if some are left.
Core
3 branches. Open seat closes from 7,389 to 12,533 in 2025. AP EAPCET for all; AUEET self-support seats in 2 of them.
Pick it if:
You want a site or plant job: L&T Construction made 181 offers on this campus for the 2023 batch, the most by any one company.
Your rank is between 7,000 and 13,000: Mechanical closed at 7,389 and Chemical at 12,533 on open seats in 2025.
You want a low fee in a core branch: a regular seat costs INR 1.78 Lakhs in tuition for four years in all three branches.
Skip it if:
You plan to take a self-support seat: self-support Mechanical costs INR 5.20 Lakhs, almost three times the regular seat.
You want mostly software jobs: many IT drives in the placement report were open only to CSE, IT, ECE and EEE.
Counsellor's advice
If your AP EAPCET rank is inside 7,000, list the Computing and Electronics branches first, in closing rank order. If it is past 12,000, list every Core, Marine and earth, and Materials and bio branch too, since a regular seat costs the same everywhere.

Placement insights
Placed B.Tech students fell from 397 in 2023 to 291 in 2025, while the median pay rose from INR 5.88 LPA to INR 6.25 LPA.
229 of the 520 graduates of 2025 chose higher studies, up from 17 a year before.
L&T Construction made 181 offers on this campus for the 2023 batch, JSW 55 and ADP 35, so core and IT firms both hire here.
Drives in Visakhapatnam are shared with the AU College of Engineering for Women, and 92 firms picked students from the two for the 2023 batch.
Good to know

In short
Kakinada places a bigger share of its batch, 65%, at a lower median, and its CSE close is almost the same. If your rank clears CSE at both, list this page's college first for the higher median.
In short
SVUCE's CSE seat closed at 3,959, far later than here, and it publishes no recent placement figures. If your rank misses CSE here, SVUCE CSE is a sensible next regular seat to list.
In short
JNTUA College of Engineering placed 75% of a batch about twice this size, at a median INR 1.05 LPA lower. List it first if a job offer matters most; list this page's college first for pay.
In short
GVPCE is a private college in the same city that places 81% of its batch, but its tuition is INR 4.20 Lakhs over four years. If your rank clears both, the regular seat here costs less and pays more.
