About ANET
Pioneering engineering education since 1975
Pioneering engineering education since 1975
Founded in 1975 by visionary educator Dr. Anka NagaRaju, ANET began as a modest engineering college with a radical idea: that technology education must be rooted in innovation, ethics, and hands-on problem solving. Over five decades, we have grown into one of India's most respected institutions for engineering and technology.
From our earliest days, we embraced emerging fields before they became mainstream — introducing computer science in the 1980s, AI research in the 1990s, and dedicated robotics labs in the early 2000s. Today, ANET stands at the forefront of next-generation engineering education, offering specialized programs in Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Robotics, Cybersecurity, Cloud Computing, IoT, and Emerging Technologies.
Our alumni network spans 50+ countries, with graduates leading innovation at Fortune 500 companies, founding successful startups, and driving research at top universities worldwide.
