The prime objective of establishing college was to impart quality technical education to the youth in rural part of Maharashtra. Basically three institutes i.e. Engineering College, Government Polytechnic and Pharmacy College started functioning in the same premises. Other Colleges were then shifted to their independent premises and the heritage building was retained by the college. The college was established in 1960 with under graduate programmes in three core branches of Civil, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, initially affiliated to Pune University and subsequently to Shivaji University in 1972. PG programmes (Master of Engineering) in these disciplines too were started in 1967. The UG programs in Civil, Mechanical and Electrical has been ‘permanently affiliated’ to Shivaji University. In response to the drive of globalization and Industry needs the Institute started MCA (Master of Computer Applications) course in 1992. This was the only engineering Institute in Maharashtra to offer the MCA course in engineering discipline. Subsequently in 1995 all disciplines of the institute were approved by AICTE (AICTE established in 1994). With the boom in Information Technology, Department of Technical Education, Maharashtra shouldered the responsibility of starting the bachelor’s degree course in IT to cater to the need of meritorious students in this region and the new branch of engineering in Information Technology was started in the Institute from 2001. In due course of time the institute has also started an under graduate programme in Electronics and Telecommunications in 2007. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Government College of Engineering, Karad」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
