The College – A Portrayal

Government Polytechnic College for Women (GPCW) functions under the authority of Directorate of Technical Education, Government of Tamil Nadu and affiliated to AICTE.

Established in the year 1964 with just 40 students in two courses viz. Diploma in Civil Engineering and National Diploma in Commercial Practice, this college now in its 50th year of existence, stands tall as a prestigious institution with 7 branches of study with over 1200 students.

Located in the heart of the city in a sprawling 10 acre campus amidst green environ, our college is a big attraction to women from both urban and rural areas. Catering to the needs of women, especially the downtrodden, it quenches their thirst for technical and commercial skills and know-how.

In its giant strides during its history of five decades, it has grown in leaps and bounds taking along the society, especially the women, empowering them technically, making them economically independent to be viable and equal partners to men both in family and profession. Through devoted service the institution not only provides students with opportunities to develop skills but also develop the right attitudes to function successfully in the ever competing world.

By the concerted efforts of the past and present faculty, the institution today stands as a pioneering and prestigious institution echoing the voice of women in the Kongu region.
