HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

The Textile Engineering College is situated by the side of the old DT (Dhaka Trunk) Road passing through Zorargonj Bazar. It was established in the year 1911 as a Peri-patetic Weaving School, which was the result of "SHAWDESHI ANDULLON" during the British regime.

It was transferred to the Dewanpur near entry point of Mohuri Project Road in 1960. In 1980 the course of Peri-patetic Weaving School was up-graded to 2-year certificate course in textile technology, which was named as District Textile Institute. In 1994 a 3-year Diploma course was introduced in this institution under-Bangladesh Technical Education Board to meet-up the growing demand of mid level technologists. Duration
of this course was extended to 4-year from 2001.

Considering the high demand of Textile Engineers for the fast growing textile sector, the government has taken necessary steps to introduce 4-year Bachelor of Science in Textile Engineering affiliated to the University of Chittagong, abolishing the Textile Diploma Course from the session 2006-2007.

The college aims to provide textile education to meet the demand for the fast growing textile sector in the region. The Textile Engineering College operates under the administrative control of the Department of Textiles, of the Ministry of Textile & Jute

Chittagong Textile Engineering College is offering 4-years B.Sc. in Textile Engineering under the University of Chittagong with specialization in
  1. Yarn Manufacturing Technology
  2. Fabric Manufacturing Technology
  3. Wet Processing Technology
  4. Garments Manufacturing Technology

CAREER PROSPECTS 

The technological knowledge and skills of Textile engineers are highly valued by textile manufacturing companies. The industry realizes that its future depend upon the quality of its technology and managers, because the quality of product and productivity play the vital role for exporting garments. Our graduates play a great role in quality production & management. As a result export in garments sector nowadays reached about 76% of the total export of the country. The majority of textile graduates take up posts in the Textile Manufacturing Industry as Process or Plant Managers, Development Engineers or Technologists. Recent graduates have found employment in the areas of Production Management, Design, Textile Testing & Quality Assurance, New Product Development, Buying House, Commercial Banks, Customs etc. At present there is a huge demand of textile engineers in Bangladesh.
