Dhaka Polytechnic Institute

Dhaka Polytechnic Institute is a government technical education facility in Bangladesh with various buildings across its campus. The site includes classrooms, workshops, a library, and recreational areas designed for student use.

The institute was founded in 1955 as East Pakistan Polytechnic Institute with support from Oklahoma State University and funding from the Ford Foundation. These international partnerships shaped its approach to technical education from the start.

Student clubs like Team Karigor and the Sports Association shape campus life beyond classroom learning. These groups help students develop interests and friendships while pursuing their technical education.

Students have access to on-campus medical facilities staffed by full-time medical officers who provide free health services. Visitors should know that these services are primarily for the campus community.

The institute's library holds an extensive collection of books and bound periodicals that give students access to substantial research resources. The main reading room accommodates many students studying at the same time.
