About
Andhra University
Andhra University is not just one of the oldest educational institutions in the
country, but is also the first to be conceived as a residential and teach-
ing-cum-affiliating University, mainly devoted to post-graduate teaching
and research.

The people of the State have an emotional attachment to the institution,

since it came into being after a prolonged and collective struggle of the
Telugu elite for a University in the educationally backward northern Circars
and Ceded districts of the erstwhile Madras Presidency.

Andhra University was constituted in the year 1926 by the Madras Act of 1926.
The 97 years old institution is fortunate to have Sir C.R. Reddy as its founder
Vice-Chancellor, as the steps taken by this visionary proved to be fruitful in
the long run.
