Introduction
"Alumni" is a generic term that describes all those who have spent time studying at a particular institution. It is a lifetime relationship with continued interest, interaction and involvement with one’s Alma mater. Alumni stand strong to prove the success of the college, and its efforts.
Alumni association of Gudlavalleru Engineering College was started in the year 2003. It was started with a motive of bringing together all the Alumni and share their experiences they faced outside the college and also extend their helping hands from all aspects for the budding engineers of the college. GEC Alumni association organizes various technical seminars / guest lectures, motivates and guides students for their academic improvement; in addition it organizes 'DISA a way forward' - a career building programme for first B.Tech students. It offers scholarships to meritorious economically poor students and has also instituted cash award to the GATE top ranker of the college.
A database for the alumni has been created, which will be constantly upgraded. This effort was initiated with the view to keep alive, the interaction between the alumni, so that, the alumni may, learn the where about of their batch mates, benefit from the placement cell, where in vacancies and opportunities may be put to use. This also helps in identifying potential among alumni who may, if willing, contribute useful service to the institute. The alumni association thus acts as a platform to share views and experience, on common interests.
All the outgoing students of GEC every year are welcomed into GEC Alumni’s fold. Their presence in the association helps to promote personal relationship and thereby improving public relations. Alumni of GEC are requested to join the face book (facebook.com/alumnigec.gudlavalleru) so that they can share their ideas through face book.
They can also send the emails to gecgudlavallerualumni@gmail.com
