Degree college for hearing-impaired students to open in Bapatla
The college will begin with 30 seats for B.Com. (Computer Applications) along with Artificial Intelligence certification courses
The Government of Andhra Pradesh plans to establish a Government Degree College for hearing-impaired students in Bapatla, beginning from the 2026-27 academic year. The school, founded in 1987, has previously provided education to 215 students, currently housed in a residential setting. Initially offering Intermediate courses, the institution has maintained a 100% pass rate in SSC and Intermediate examinations since 1999.
Former students have demonstrated their potential by securing jobs in government departments and private companies like D-Mart, Flipkart, and Amazon. Enrolling 30 students in B.Com. (Computer Applications) and Artificial Intelligence certification courses, the new college aims to fill the void left by the lack of a government degree college for hearing-impaired individuals.
Students are also trained in computer applications, various trades, and sports, with aspirations to represent India in national and international competitions.
