Q:   How is the faculty and infrastructure of Andhra University, Visakhapatnam for B.Arch?

A:
Hi, I was there for 7 years both as a student and then as a lecturer from 1955 till December 1962. It was a golden era when Dr. VS Krishna was the VC, with the best Registrar Gopala Swamy Naidu, and outstanding faculty from all over India. There were many visiting faculties from the West as well. It certainly produced the best graduates in India and some of them migrated to all parts of the world, reaching the highest positions wherever they settled. I wish the best for the future of the Institute and its faculty and students. 1) One of the oldest universities in the country and the top government college in the state. 2) It has got a better ranking overall for the entire University (but again the ranking of engineering college alone is not that good) 3) There are limited students per class, there are only 30 seats in each department and 60 in a few. 4) Library: Every department in the University has got its own department library which comprises all the essential course materials and access to various e-books and journals. Apart from that, we have got the Central Engineering library where there are multiple copies of books which allows you to draw books, and apart from that we have got the central library in South campus which is one of its kind which is well known for the vast volumes it has got. 5) The overall area of the campus is around 600 acres, the engineering college had an area of about 110 acres including hostels. 6) Engineering College has got one of the biggest grounds in the city, we also have a basketball court and gym where you can access all the equipment without paying any extra money. 7) NCC and NSS: Students here got the provision to be in one of them, the centers of NCC and NSS are there within the University. 8) Internet connectivity: University has got one of the best internet connectivity, all the students are allowed to access the Wi-Fi. 9) Alumni: The University has got the strongest Alumni base, most of the Alumni of the University are in great positions and you get a chance to interact with them if you are fortunate enough. Most of the Alumni were known to hold positions such as chief directors in many companies here and abroad. The Alumni have contributed and are part of the university's overall development in terms of providing infrastructure and providing other facilities. Some of them are even good at providing placements too.

Not bad good atmosphere and good campus. Best faculty and education.

Infrastructure: The campus provides all the basic amenities a student may require throughout the period. These amenities include smart classrooms, industry-grade labs, a library, auditoriums, sports facilities, an establishment for extracurricular activities, seminar halls, and various other establishments. The campus is constructed to keep security as a key aspect while preparing the leading healthcare forces.

Dissatisfied with infrastructure and environment but good placements.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and environment of the college are not good. The furniture is old, but in good condition. The college is located near a hospital, which makes it a less than optimal environment for students to learn. There are no extracurricular activities other than studies.

No social life even in 2024.

Infrastructure: There are no special type of facilities available in the classroom, like Wi-Fi and lamps. They sell like the rat that has just pooped in library. We have to clean our own library with the tested book. We don't have any proper place for even studying .

Infrastructure: There is no Wi-Fi and A/C for the students and they will promote like they have. Don't be fooled by the management, and do not waste money in this college. In a single word, it can be said it is the worst college in Visakhapatnam. Do not get admission in this college at any cost.

Review by a final year student.

Infrastructure: We do have Wi-Fi, labs, digital classrooms, and a central library. We have a playground for sports, and food in the canteen tastes good. The hostel mess also provides good food and accommodation. The canteen provides both veg and non-veg food. A digital library is also provided in our college.

Faculty and teaching are excellent, and placements are good in Aditya. I recommend joining Aditya.

Infrastructure: Classrooms and the library are good. Medical facilities are available. Canteen facilities are poor. Sports and games are not prioritized. The college doesn’t provide a hostel. No specified canteen is available in the college; we have to bring our own lunchboxes.

Good infrastructure, but some times faculty becomes very rude.

Infrastructure: There is a good infrastructure, and they have a library that is well-constructed. The principal takes care of all the things in college personally, but they didn't have a playground. As per studies, it is a good college, and they also have labs to do better explanations for students.
