Only except one or two Warangal students all other students come from other states of India specially from northern Indian states and Foreign students from Palestine, Jordan, Sudan, Eritrea etc. NIT is for the highly meritorious students from all across the country ranking highest in IIT and JRE but not in EAMCET, Non Resident Indians, and Foreign students. Mostly, NITs are located in small towns and villages to keep students away from the city environment and amenities so, they more concentrate on education and not on entertainment. NIT at Warangal village is the 3rd best NIT in India. Today it is an Institute of National Importance awarding bachelors, masters and doctoral degrees in engineering, technology, basic sciences and management.

Warangal has educational institutions such as National Institute of Technology, Warangal The first of all RECs, the erstwhile REC Warangal started functioning in 1959 with Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering departments. The Bachelors programme in Chemical Engineering was initiated in 1964. The following year saw the start of Metallurgical Engineering programme. In 1971, the college started the undergraduate program in Electronics and Communication Engineering. B. Tech in Computer Science & Engineering was started in 1983 and M. Tech in Computer Science & Engineering in 1987. In 2006, the institute started a Bachelors program in Biotechnology.

In 1976, its affiliation was changed from Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University to Kakatiya University, with which it remained affiliated, until the institute was granted a deemed university status in 2002 as Kakatiya University was bringing it a more local impact than a nationalized higher education institution. Every effort is made to keep this institution nationalized and not at all a part of Warangal only so, the students usually don't get mixed with local residents as most of them do not know the language spoken i.e. Telugu and also the culture and maturity levels are entirely different.

In 1994, the institute was selected by the Overseas Development Administration of the UK for exchange programs between the UK and India in the field of information technology. This program ran till 1999. In 2000, the institute started its MBA program. The next year, a center of Software Technology Parks of India was opened in its campus( now not functioning). In September 2002, the college was renamed as National Institute of Technology and was given a deemed university status. NIT W was been given the status of Institute of National Importance (INI) on 15 August 2007.

In November 2012, NIT Warangal entered into an MoU with 12 European Higher Education Institutes and seven other Indian Institutes (IISc, Bangalore, IIT Bombay, IIT Madras, IIT Kanpur, IIT Gawhati, Anna University and NIT Rourkela) and became a partner institute of the HERITAGE Programme. 29 of the 99 members selected for pursuing their studies or research abroad for 2013-14 are from NIT Warangal.

Famous quotes containing the word education:

    Our children will not survive our habits of thinking, our failures of the spirit, our wreck of the universe into which we bring new life as blithely as we do. Mostly, our children will resemble our own misery and spite and anger, because we give them no choice about it. In the name of motherhood and fatherhood and education and good manners, we threaten and suffocate and bind and ensnare and bribe and trick children into wholesale emulation of our ways.
    June Jordan (b. 1939)

    The legislator should direct his attention above all to the education of youth; for the neglect of education does harm to the constitution. The citizen should be molded to suit the form of government under which he lives. For each government has a peculiar character which originally formed and which continues to preserve it. The character of democracy creates democracy, and the character of oligarchy creates oligarchy.
    Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)

    ... the whole tenour of female education ... tends to render the best disposed romantic and inconstant; and the remainder vain and mean.
    Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
