Government Polytechnic, Pune, Technical education institute in Shivajinagar, Pune, India
Government Polytechnic, Pune, is a public technical school in the Shivajinagar area of Pune, India, offering engineering programs across several departments. The campus has workshops, laboratories, student hostels, a library, and spaces used for events and training.
The school was founded in 1957, making it one of the early technical institutions in the region. It gained academic independence in 1994 and was later recognized as a protected municipal heritage building.
The boat club gives students access to the Mula-Mutha river, where they train for the annual Regatta race. The campus also holds the Presentation Pal project, a presentation tool built by the Computer Engineering Department for people with physical disabilities.
The campus lies near the junction of the Mula and Mutha rivers, close to the College of Engineering, Pune, where the school held its first classes. Its boat club on the river hosts the annual Regatta, so the waterfront is busiest around that race. Access to workshops and laboratories depends on the teaching timetable.
The campus boathouse, beside the College of Engineering, keeps a fleet of boats for students training for the annual Regatta on the Mula-Mutha river, held where the Mula and Mutha meet. Few polytechnics in India offer rowing on a river within the city.
