India is very rich in its culture and heritage and has a great mythological background. Its culture and philosophy are highly regarded and valued by the rest of the world. Art and Architecture play an important role in the cultural context. JNAFAU is the first of its kind in the entire country and was established in Andhra Pradesh/Telangana with headquarters at Mahavir Marg, Masab Tank, Hyderabad.
With the objective of providing a systematic education in Arts and Architecture, catering to the present needs of society, Jawaharlal Nehru Architecture and Fine Arts University was established by Act of Andhra Pradesh State Legislature No. 31 of 2008.
We are a UGC Recognized college in Hyderabad, offering one of the few university-affiliated programs in Event Management, designed to meet industry demands with academic excellence.
It is highly specialized and focuses on the fine arts and the built environment. The traditional disciplines in these fields like architecture, painting, sculpture, applied art and photography have been offered for several decades now.




In addition, new departments in the creative fields have been added, in response to development in technology and changes in society. These are Urban and Regional Planning, Digital Techniques, Interior Design, Animation and Event Management.
