In the wake of growing demand for technically trained girls in certain specialized field such as Architecture, Electronics, Garments, Secretarial Technologies it was being contemplated for quite some time past to establish an Institute for imparting technical education and training among the girls disciples. So that the demand of Industry could be met effectively and side by side with the male students the girls may also have opportunities of acquiring technical education.

To begin with, three years post matric diploma courses in electronics and garment technologies were introduced and as a step further towards the achievement of noble objectives of its establishment Architecture Technology was introduced in 1982 and Secretarial Technology in 1986.
