About GECA

Established in 1960, the Government College of Engineering Aurangabad (GECA), Chhatrapati SambhajiNagar stands as a beacon of technical excellence in the Marathwada region of Maharashtra. As an autonomous institute of the Government of Maharashtra, it has carved a niche for itself by providing high-quality engineering education that blends traditional academic rigor with modern industrial requirements.

Spread across a lushy Green 22-acre campus in the heart of Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, the college offers a serene yet intellectually stimulating environment for thousands of aspiring engineers. The institute's autonomy, granted in 2006, has allowed it to design a contemporary curriculum that is frequently updated to keep pace with global technological advancements.

GECA is affiliated with Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University and is consistently recognized by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) for its commitment to standards.
