HR Head

About us!
Gandhi Institute of Technology and Management, popularly known as GITAM was founded in 1980 by an inspired group of eminent intellectuals and industrialists of Andhra Pradesh led by Dr M.V.V.S. Murthi, former Member of Parliament and popular philanthropist. The vision of MAHATMA, the Father of the Nation was to see India as a socially and economically resurgent country and he looked upon education as an important means to achieve this goal. Gandhi’s view of education was not narrow or sectarian. He envisages universities as institutions of higher learning that transcend all linguistic, racial, and other barriers. GITAM is committed to imbibe his values and abide by his philosophy. Learn more here: https://www.gitam.edu
