ABOUT   THE DEPARTMENT: 

It is one of the premier departments of the institute as well in the entire North-East. The department was started to produce quality technician in the field of Chemical Engineering. The department runs 3 years Diploma course in Chemical Engineering stream. In order to provide employment avenues, extra courses on soap and Phenyl manufacture, PVC pipes, chalk and candle making, etc, are also organized from time to time for the unemployed qualified youth.

Students passing out from the department get absorbed in various Oil sector PSUs like- IOCL, OIL, NRL, BCPL, ONGC, etc and manufacturing industries. Some also opt for higher studies in the Engineering colleges of the state and outside. Active participation is also seen in the Technical Exhibitions cum Model Competition and paper presentation, organized by ISTE-Students Chapter.

Courses Offeres: 3 year Diploma in Chemical Engineering

CURRICULUM REVISION

With an objective to implement NEP 2020 in Higher Education and the State
Polytechnics, with effect from the academic session 2024-25 a framework is
