MVGR College of Engineering: Moulding the Technocrats of Tomorrow
By Dr. K. V. L. Raju, Vice- Chancellor
It has been more than 12 years since Sasidhar Sunkari, who works in Bangalore as an Engineering
Manager at Intel graduated from the MVGR College of Engineering, which is located in Vizianagaram, a north coastal district of Andhra Pradesh. Whenever somebody asks about his college, Sunkari still gets excited with joy.
He believes that the best decision he took in his life was to choose MVGR for doing his engineering in computer science. "œMy life took the right turn just after I joined MVGR College. My experience is not just related to academic learning, but an overall personality development. Kalyan Sir and
Ram Sir (Krishna Ram) were not just the teachers but were mentors in my life," remembers Sunkari.
It is not just Sunkari, but there are many like Leela Rani Bora, Manager at HAL and Anil Kumar, Sensor
Solutions Architect at L&T Bangalore, who still thank for the right mentorship they had received in the MVGR College of Engineering. As the list extends, the college carves a niche in the space of Engineering Education. MVGR College of Engineering under the aegis of MANSAS possesses an illustrious journey since its establishment in 1997.
With the focus on moulding change makers and technocrats for the betterment of the nation, the Institute has always involved itself in student-centred pedagogies. "œEvery student holds innate and the cultivated skills. We offer them a right platform to demonstrate those talents," opines Dr. K. V. L. Raju, Principal, MVGR College of Engineering (Autonomous). The knowledge dissemination at MVGR starts with the student participation that arises with the interdisciplinary mode of teaching and learning supported with the partnerships.
"œWe have collaborated with many industry bodies to provide our students the best of the opportunities available today. One such tie up that we have is with SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers), which has been organizing events for students" says Dr. Raju. At MVGR, students always come with innovative ideas. The continuous participation and the glorious success they experience generating the innovations for further motivation. Among the numerous achievements, the success associated with the team
Invincible 2.0 who worked for a single seated four wheeled All- Terrain Vehicle (ATV) stand out was highly appreciated. Fabrication of the racing car by team Syayukti, designing and building of Go-Karting vehicle by team Aadhya (Girls) and the Electric Solar Vehicle challenge undertaken by team Vikranta are the few among others that are worth mentioning.
For students, along with these experiential learning platforms, the Institute also works on the employability by bridging the Industry Academic gap. "œA Decade ago, the department of ECE associated with Wipro as a result of which the "œWipro Mission10X Technology Learning Centre" was opened in the campus. Wipro has also designed Unified Technology Learning Platform (UTLP) for practice based learning in Engineering Education that enables students to learn technology integrated with other skills like communication, team work, analytical thinking," pinpoints Dr. Raju.
A Humble Start
MVGR is one of the 13 Institutions under MANSAS, established by Dr. P.V.G. Raju, the last coroneted Maharaja of Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh, who always worked for the betterment of society through education. He laid its foundation in 1958 by donating vast tracts of land. Today, the trust with the commitment to education has 13 educational institutions from K.G. to P.G. including Engineering, Pharmacy, Law and Management courses.
MVGR college of Engineering is one of the premier institutions among the others. Conferred with an Autonomous status in the year 2015, now the institute offers 7 Under Graduate and 8 Post Graduate programs. Moving ahead,the institute aspires to be a University and wishes to strengthen current performances especially in the field of research. Also, endeavouring to set a path of education that is highly relevant to the society," concludes Dr. Raju.
