XLRI Signs Agreement with APCRDA for Amaravati Campus
The institute has signed a formal agreement with the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority (APCRDA) to establish the new campus. The facility will be known as XLRI Amaravati and will be developed as a full-fledged academic centre.
Under the agreement, the authority will support the development of the campus infrastructure and provide the required land within the Amaravati capital region. The campus is expected to include modern classrooms, academic blocks, research facilities, and residential infrastructure. Officials indicated that the initiative aims to strengthen higher education development in the region while expanding XLRI’s national academic presence.
Academic and Executive Education Programmes Planned
The Amaravati campus will host several academic and professional programmes once operational. These programmes are expected to include management courses, executive education initiatives, and specialised training programmes designed for professionals.
The expansion will allow the institute to accommodate over 1,000 additional students, helping meet the growing demand for management education in India. The new campus is also expected to promote collaboration with industry and public institutions through research initiatives and executive training programmes.
Infrastructure Development and Capacity Expansion
The planned campus will feature extensive academic infrastructure designed to support teaching, research, and residential facilities for students and faculty. With a 61.7-acre campus layout, the project aims to create a comprehensive learning environment with modern educational resources.
The INR 300 crore investment will be used for developing classrooms, learning spaces, administrative buildings, and campus amenities required for large-scale academic operations. The Amaravati project represents a major expansion step for XLRI as it continues to grow its academic footprint and increase opportunities for students seeking management education in India.
