It is my pleasure and privilege to welcome the students to enter into this portal of knowledge. Ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle says, “Well begun is half done”. Indeed, your life journey has a remarkable start by choosing this college which is a pioneer in providing quality technical education. As the name indicates this college was founded by the renowned philanthropist Dr. RM. Alagappa Chettiar in 1955 and it became a government college in 1966. This is the place where students learn the latest developments of technology and sharpen their skills. Opportunities are abundant in this world, but there is a neck-and-neck race among the students to grab their opportunity. To be successful in your life, you should be determined to overcome the difficulties on your path. I believe that you are the true ambassadors of this great institution and you will spread our tradition and wisdom across the globe. I wish you all success in your life.Alagappa Government Polytechnic College
