Dr. K. Narendar Reddy obtained AMIE (Computer Engineering) degree from Institution of Engineers (I) in the year 2000. He obtained M.Tech. and Ph.D degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from JNTU, Anantapur in the years 2005 and 2013 respectively. Earlier to these degrees, he obtained M.Tech. degree in Mining Engineering from IT BHU (now it is known as IIT BHU) in the year 1990. He joined in teaching in the area of Computer Science and Engineering in 2001. Prior to his career in teaching, he served as Scientist at National Institute of Rock Mechanics (NIRM), Central Govt. R&D Unit under Ministry of Mines & Minerals, for about 11 years. As Scientist he provided solutions which were based on stress analysis using numerical modeling techniques (Numerical modeling techniques: Finite Element Method, Universal Distinct Element Method, Fast Lagrangian Analysis of Continua), to different interdisciplinary engineering problems.

In the 21 years of teaching experience in Computer Science and Engineering, he taught more than 12 different subjects.  He published 20 research papers having 120 citations and h-index 5. His area of Ph.D work is Software Engineering in CSE.

He is a Professor of CSE and Associate Dean Students’ Affairs. At present, as Professor of CSE, he is handling two important subjects Software Engineering and Operating Systems. He is involved in NIRF data analysis and computations for CVRCE. 

As Associate Dean Students’ Affairs, he is looking after mentoring activities for the students. Mentoring of students is started with an aim to help the students in many aspects. Mentoring of students helps to explore their academic interests, to make them work for excellence, to stand up to peer pressure, to build relations between teachers and students. It helps to gain knowledge, skills in the area of her/his study and to experience the joy of learning. Mentoring helps to acquire meta- skills, nurture the character as an essential quality by which she/he would understand and fulfill her/his responsibility as an engineer, a citizen and as a human being. 

To carry out his Associate Dean Students’ Affairs role effectively, he completed two Coursera courses on Psychology.  He also attended two Universal Human Values (UHV) FDPs.
