The Department of I year has well qualified, experienced and committed faculty members holding M.Sc,M.A,M.Com, M.tech, M.Phil & Ph.D Degrees. The students admitted into B.Tech. 1st year are of various levels of back ground. Some students are with a poor, socio economic back ground and others with moderate or rich background. Some students are with rural back ground, studied in local language (Telugu) as their medium of instruction till 12th class (10+2 level), which make them difficult to understand English. All the Subjects being taught at 1st year level, adequate efforts are put in by the faculty to teach all the students to same level. Wherever required, course materials in the form of (running) notes are given in the classes by the concerned faculty. The success rate of the students at the end/final exams is very satisfactory during recent years. Extra class tests are conducted apart from regular curriculum. Adequate library & laboratory facilities are available. Repetition facilities are also extended to the students for better practice in the laboratory experiments in every academic year. When required, personal counseling is given to the students with poor attendance and academic back ground in every academic year. Occasionally teachers are permitted to attend seminars, conferences, workshops etc., for improvement of professional skills.
