About us
CEG was established in May of 1794, as a School of Survey with one student in a building near Fort St. George. Founded by Michael Topping, the school became the Civil Engineering School in 1858. Subsequently, CEG was established as a college in 1859 under the Madras University. It was then rechristened as the College of Engineering in 1861 with the inclusion of the Mechanical Engineering course.
CEG began its journey as a school of survey established by the East India Company in 1794 at the Fort St.George, Madras. There were only eight students initially. It was started by the initiative of Michael Topping, an Astronomical Surveyor. He was succeeded by John Golding Ham, who was an Architect and Marine Surveyor. The name of the survey school was changed to Civil Engineering School and moved to the Kalasa Mahal buildings in Chepauk in 1858. The scope was to train upper and lower subordinates. The College was affiliated with the Madras University in 1862.
Civil Engineering was a much sought-after field of study, a speciality in those early days. The first set of the students received the DCE degree in 1864. In 1920, the College moved into the sprawling 185-acre campus at Guindy. In 1925, Rao Bahadur G. Nagarathinam Ayyar became the first Indian Principal of the College. This institution became the oldest technical institution in Asia and has several firsts to its credit. The shifting of the college to Guindy was the impact of conducting the Degree courses in Mechanical Engineering, and paved the way for rapid expansion to add some more Degree courses.
