History edit
The founder-president of the Kelavani mandal, Chhotabhai Bhikhabhai Patel, and K.C. Patel, who succeeded him worked on the idea of a university at Education Campus, Changa (ECC). ECC started with the establishment of Charotar Institute of Technology - Changa (CITC) as the first institute which is now known as Chandubhai S. Patel Institute of Technology (CSPIT) in the year 2000.[6][7]
With the need for autonomy, the ECC applied for university status at UGC and Gujarat Government, which was granted on July 7, 2009, when the ECC was accorded the status of University and Charotar University of Science and Technology was established.[6]

The university is situated in the village of Changa, a Charotar Moti Sattavis Patidar Samaj. Charotar is the region comprising the Anand and Kheda districts of Gujarat. The university has about 1700 faculty members and 8000 students.[8]
