My university is actually the oldest institute of technical education which was like established in the year 1917 and it is also said that it is the 5th technical institute started in the country. It’s got the affiliation from Bangalore University and AICTE approved. NBA and NAAC also is accredited the university. It has great reputation in the society so it is really an amazing college to study in. University Visvesvaraya College of Engineering ranking is very good and the same way education here is beyond good. My course in this institute was B.Arch and NATA exam should be written for being eligible.
As of my opinion University Visvesvaraya college is one of the best college for pursuing architecture course right now am in final year pursuing B Arch course and also I need to confess that it is one of the oldest best college in Karnataka State. As of my opinion fee structure is very much nominal when compare to any other college and I can say it is reliable too. The positive things are college provides good education and great placement assistance because several renowned companies visited the campus for the recruitment process. Overall it is best to choose for pursuing architecture course
