One of my friends studied at the University of Hyderabad. According to him, the economics department is really good. Here are some points regarding this:

• The faculty of University of Hyderabad is well experienced and very cooperative.
• They have an active placement cell. The placements here are better than what the other universities offer. 
• Being one of the top universities in India it is well recognized by students and professionals. 

It is assured that you will have a holistic learning experience. Here education is not only restricted to books and assignments. You will get proper industrial exposure which will help in your career forward.
