| About College |
After Independence, the demand for higher education greatly increased, and many young men of Vijayawada and the surrounding towns and villages set out for Tamil Nadu in search of quality education. Grieved by their plight, the Catholic Bishops of Andhra Pradesh, in particular, Bishop Ignatius Mummadi of Guntur Diocese, requested the Jesuits, members of the Society of Jesus, who had already made outstanding contributions to education in India, to establish a college in Vijayawada. In response, a committed band of Jesuits, headed by Fr Karnam Deviah, SJ, came to Vijayawada from the then Madurai Jesuit Province in Tamil Nadu. Thanks to the generous financial support of local philanthropists, Andhra Loyola College was established on a 110-acre land in the year 1953 (classes commenced on July 22, 1954) with Rev Fr Theo Mathias, SJ, (now, Emeritus Professor, Xavier Labour Relations Institute, Jamshedpur) as its first Principal. The college was affiliated to Andhra University till December 1976 and to Nagarjuna University thereafter.
Throughout these fifty years, Andhra Loyola College has unfailingly occupied a premier position in higher education producing men and women of �competence, conscience, and compassionate commitment�, which is the goal of Jesuit education. The alumni/ae of the college (who include Dr Y S Rajasekhar Reddy, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh), occupy high positions in different fields in India and abroad, and they hold fast to this vision.
In 1988, the college won the autonomous status by virtue of its excellent contribution to education, and it had used this freedom, throughout the last sixteen years, to experiment and innovate, introducing more practical combination of courses as well as job-oriented ones to meet the needs of the immediate society. The college offers intermediate, degree, and post-graduate programmes, and its undergraduate curriculum is so broad-based and holistic that it has, in addition to the mainstream academic programmes, six other dimensions: |
