The Government Engineering College Thrissur (GEC-T) is a public engineering and research institute located in Thrissur, Kerala , India. During its establishment in 1957, it was the second-oldest public engineering institute to be established in the state of Kerala after CET (1939) and the first public institute of technology to be established after the formation of the state in 1956. The institute is affiliated to the APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University (KTU) since its inception in 2015.
The institute was originally located at the Chembukkavu campus of the Maharaja's Technological Institute in 1957. The foundation stone of the institute was laid by the late Pandit Jawarharlal Nehru , the first Prime Minister of India , on 26 April 1958. The institute was shifted into its present campus in October 1960. The institute was formally inaugurated by late Pattom A. Thanu Pillai , former Chief Minister of Kerala, on 2 February 1962. The campus is spread over an area of 75 acres (0.30 km2 ) and is located at Ramavarmapuram which is 5 km from the centre of Thrissur and 6 km from Thrissur Railway station .
Besides the regular B-Tech courses, the institute also offers a postgraduate Course in Computer Applications (MCA), and postgraduate programmes in other subjects.
