In July 2024, the University Grants Commission (UGC), Ministry of Education, Government of India, conferred Autonomous Status upon Visvesvaraya College of Engineering & Technology for a period of 10 years — from the academic year 2024–25 to 2033–34. This landmark recognition, subsequently ratified by the Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Hyderabad (JNTUH) on 27 July 2024, empowers VCET to design its own curriculum, conduct independent examinations, and drive academic innovation beyond the boundaries of a standard affiliated college. Awarded under UGC Regulations 2023 and backed by NAAC ‘A’ Grade accreditation, this autonomous status is a definitive endorsement of VCET’s academic maturity, institutional governance, and commitment to delivering education that is current, rigorous, and industry-aligned. For VCET students, it means a degree that carries greater credibility, a curriculum built for today’s world, and an institution fully accountable for the quality of every program it offers.
