Our History
HITAM began its journey in 2001 as the Royal College of Engineering in Medak and relocated to a sprawling campus near Medchal in 2007, adopting the name Hyderabad Institute of Engineering and Technology (HITAM). In 2008, it became India’s first educational institution to earn IGBC Silver certification for its green building.
HITAM has continually evolved, achieving NAAC accreditation in 2018, NBA accreditation for CSE and ECE in 2019, and launching the IBM Partnership Program in 2020. By 2021, HITAM secured NAAC Grade A+ accreditation, UGC Autonomous College status, and recognition as a Band B institution in national ATAL rankings. In 2022, all eligible branches, including EEE and Mechanical, attained NBA accreditation. Innovation flourished in 2023, with HITAM ranking in the 101-150 band among privately funded institutions in NIRF and forming global partnerships with MSOE (USA), UAH (USA), and RWTH (Germany).
Most recently, in 2024, HITAM achieved full NBA accreditation and partnered with George Mason University, further strengthening its focus on academic excellence and global opportunities.
This journey reflects the vision of Founder and Chairman Arutla Prashanth, who aims to provide value-based education for societal betterment.
