About the organization
Originally, the Institute was founded in the year 1936 as a trade school with the object of turning out artisans in some industrial arts and crafts. A major reorganization in its curriculum took place in the year 1945. In 1958, a three-year Diploma program in Civil Engineering was started and five years later, two more Diploma program in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering were added.
