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.

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.

Satisfied but need to improve. Too good placements, facilities.

Infrastructure: Only some of the teachers are from NIT and most of the teachers have done their M.Tech. Infrastructure is good, only as it is in a very small area. Our college provides B.Tech which has 9 courses: CSE, ECE, EEE, Chemical, Mechanical, IT, Civil, CSM, CSD. In hostels, 4 people per room with a bathroom, with mess available for both veg and non-veg.

Some irregular rules like not allowing entry when you are just 5-10 minutes late.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is too good in my college. The mess is also available with tasty food at a reasonable price. Lab facilities are too good in my college. Faculty has very kind behavior in my college. Sports activities are great. The college is surrounded by nature, 500 meters away from the road, so there is no disturbance from traffic.

A well-mannered college in my district.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is very good with a separate building for each department. The campus is totally clean and tidy. Every department has its own individual labs with all required equipment. But some departments' lab equipment has become old, and there will be a need to change them. The food in the canteen is somewhat good. Sports are conducted annually.

ANITS: Honest Review (School)

Infrastructure: The infrastructure facilities of the college are good to some extent. However, Wi-Fi is not available. Please use Airtel network only, as no other network works in the college. There are enough computers in the labs. The canteen is also good. You also have the ANH beside it, where you can get medical facilities.
