The seed for the Computer Society of India (CSI) was first shown in the year 1965 with a handful of IT enthusiasts who were a computer user group and felt the need to organize their activities. They also wanted to share their knowledge and exchange ideas on what they felt was a fast emerging sector. Today the CSI takes pride in being the largest and most professionally managed association of and for IT professionals in India. The purposes of the Society are scientific and educational directed towards the advancement of the theory and practice of computer science and IT. The organisation has grown to an enviable size of 100,000 strong members consisting of professionals with varied backgrounds including Software developers, Scientists, Academicians, Project Managers, CIO's , CTO's & IT vendors to just name a few. It has spread its branches all over the country.

The Institution of Engineers India (IEI) is the national organization of engineers in India, established in 1920 in Kolkata, West Bengal. It has more than one million members in its 15 engineering disciplines across 125 centers and chapters located in India and around the world. It is the world's largest multi-disciplinary engineering professional society in the world, and acclaimed to have pioneered non-formal education in engineering. The Institution of Engineers India was incorporated by Royal Charter in 1935. It is currently headquartered in 8 Gokhale Road, Kolkata.

The branches of this organization gradually began spreading across the country, leading to the birth of local institutions. Technical operations were established in 1944, with four large departments: Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, and General Engineering. It celebrated its silver jubilee in 1945 in Calcutta. In 1947, four new centres opened: Mdhyprant, Sindh, Balochistan and Tiruwankur. Harold Williams served as President for a period in the 1950s. The institution celebrated its Golden Jubilee at Calcutta, inaugurated by Mrs Indira Gandhi. The Institution obtained the full membership of the Engineers Mobility Forum (EMF) at the Bi-annual International Engineers Meetings 2009 held at Kyoto, Japan on 17 June 2009. Dr. L V Muralikrishna Reddy, FIE, Int. PE, CEng (UK) is the youngest President and assumed office at the Annual General Meeting held at Hyderabad on 21 December 2014.

The students and staff chapter of IEI was started in our college in the year 2014. There are totally 721 students and 15 staff members become the members of this society. Our college was also the institutional member of IEI. In order to promote technical knowledge among the students, various technical events such as project expo, paper presentation, quiz programmes and model making.

To redress the grievances of the parents and students, every year, we conduct parents and teachers Association Meeting. Large number of parents attended these meetings and expressed their views and suggestions. The suggestions and views expressed by the parents will be brought to the knowledge of Principal and Correspondent for immediate action. This will make the relationship between students, their parents and college becomes cordial and cooperative.

For every 22 students, one faculty member is appointed as staff counselor. The staff counselor periodically meets the students concerned to know their problems regarding academic, college facilities, hostel facilities and personal needs & problems. The counselor reports the student’s problem to the HOD concerned and it is brought to the knowledge of Principal and Correspondent for necessary action. It causes smooth relation between students and staff members.
