The Genesis & Growth
Established by the renowned Nagarjuna Education Society (1967) in the year 1985, the College drew its initial impetus from people's representatives, local doctors, charitable trusts and commercial houses of Guntur District.
Today, it enjoys flagship status among the eight constituent institutions that are governed by Nagarjuna Education Society. The founder-members of Nagarjuna Education Society and their successors have provided abundant inputs to turn a mere 3 programmes -180-intake College into a 19 programmes - 1596 - intake by the academic year 2023-2024. The premier status of the institution is made possible by sticking to our core-principles of student-focus, Human Resource Development and emphasis on total quality.
To its credit, the institution has been accredited 7 times for all eligible courses by the National Board of Accreditation in 1998, 2002, 2007, 2012, 2017, 2021 and 2022 had also received NAAC - A+ Grade in 2021. The institute is under NIRF rank band 201 - 250 (for 2022) and ISO 9001:2015 certification from 2019. The institute's past efforts in academic performances, and the capability of self governance won the status of autonomy in 2012, and this status of autonomy made it more responsible and ambitious.
