This study investigates the quantitative structure of invasive alien plant species that have been found on the grounds of Andhra University using a research design that is based on quantitative research. Through the utilization of previously collected data and the utilization of a methodical evaluation of the Importance Value Index (IVI), the purpose of this research is to determine the dominance and dispersion patterns of these invasive species. In addition to this, it provides a comparative analysis that sheds light on the role played by distinct geographical locations in the introduction of invasive species into their respective ecosystems. By pursuing this method, the research hopes to provide a full understanding of the invasive plant flora within the university campus, providing light on the potential applications of these species. This will be accomplished by undertaking this strategy. The collecting of data is primarily dependent on information that was previously gathered, such as information obtained from botanical surveys and research papers carried out at Andhra University. IVI data for particular invasive plant species are collected and analyzed in a methodical manner, while the geographical origins of these invasive plant species are extrapolated from records and literature that are currently available
