the society through education. The institute
was able to be established with
the permission of the Government of
Andhra Pradesh, it has also gained approval
from the AICTE, New Delhi
and is affiliated with Acharya Nagarjuna
University, Guntur. On a mission
to create highly-skilled technocrats,
the college strives to provide
the best of facilities for the students.
As a result, they secured accreditation
from National Board of Accreditation
(NBA) four times since 1998 and today
the Institution is accredited with
"˜A' grade for 5 years by NAAC.
With over 70 PhD holders and
56 PhD scholars, the faculty team of

is a dedicated group of intellectuals
and has strength of 340 and a student
ratio of 1:15. The four fully equipped
research labs enable the faculty to be
able to carry out projects efficiently.
The students are also encouraged
