The World Bank Assisted Third Technician Education Project came to the North Eastern states of India in 2002.
Under this Project, the Institute’s humble infrastructures were renovated and strengthened, and 2 (two) more diploma courses, namely: “Computer Application” (in the year 2002) and “Fashion Technology” ( in the year 2004) were introduced. At the same time, the name of the Institute was changed from Women Polytechnic Kohima to Government Polytechnic Kohima – thus becoming a co-educational Institute.
