'''National Institute of Technology Arunachal Pradesh''' (also known as '''NIT Arunachal Pradesh''' or '''NITAP''') is a public technical and research institute located at Jote near [[Itanagar]], the capital of [[Arunachal Pradesh]]. NIT Arunachal Pradesh is one of the 31 [[National Institutes of Technology]] in [[India]] and is recognized as an [[Institute of National Importance]]. NIT Arunachal Pradesh started its functioning from 2010 in a temporary campus in [[Yupia]], [[Arunachal Pradesh]]. The institute presently functions from its permanent Campus at Jote, [[Papum Pare district]], [[Arunachal Pradesh]].

==History==
The Indian government started 14 RECs between 1959 and 1965, at [[Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal|Bhopal]], [[Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology, Allahabad|Allahabad]], [[NIT Calicut|Calicut]], [[National Institute of Technology, Durgapur|Durgapur]], [[National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra|Kurukshetra]], [[National Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur|Jamshedpur]], [[Malaviya National Institute of Technology, Jaipur|Jaipur]], [[Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology|Nagpur]], [[National Institute of Technology, Rourkela|Rourkela]], [[National Institute of Technology, Srinagar|Srinagar]], [[National Institute of Technology Karnataka|Surathkal]], [[S V National Institute of Technology, Surat|Surat]], [[NIT Trichy|Tiruchirappalli]], and [[National Institute of Technology, Warangal|Warangal]]). It established one in [[National Institute of Technology, Silchar|Silchar]] in 1967 and added two others located at [[National Institute of Technology, Hamirpur|Hamirpur]] in 1986, and [[National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar|Jalandhar]] in 1987.
[[File:20210924 231430 NIT Jote Academic Block.jpg|thumb|BOYS HOSTEL]]
The RECs were jointly operated by the central government and the concerned state government. Non-recurring expenditures and expenditures for post-graduate courses during the REC period were borne by the central government, while recurring expenditure on undergraduate courses was shared equally by central and state governments.
[[File:20210924 NIT Jote Academic Block.jpg|thumb|Girl's Hostel]]
Due to the costs and infrastructure involved in creating the [[Indian Institute of Technology|Indian Institutes of Technology]] (IIT), in 2002 MHRD Minister [[Murli Manohar Joshi]] upgraded RECs to "National Institutes of Technology" (NITs) instead of creating IITs. The central government controls NITs and provides all funding. In 2003, all RECs became NITs.

The upgrade was designed along the lines of the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) after it was concluded that RECs had potential as proven by the success of their alumni and their contributions in the field of technical education. Subsequently, funding and autonomy for NITs increased. The changes implemented recommendations of the "High Powered Review Committee" (HPRC).<ref>

Accessed 6 July 2007.</ref> The HPRC, chaired by [[R.A. Mashelkar|Dr. R.A. Mashelkar]], submitted its report entitled "Strategic Road Map for Academic Excellence of Future RECs" in 1998.

In 2004, MHRD issued NIT status to three more colleges, located at [[National Institute of Technology, Patna|Patna]] (Bihar Engineering College - a 110-year-old college), [[National Institute of Technology, Raipur|Raipur]] (Government Engineering College),<ref name=pibraipurtripura>{{Cite web|url=http://pib.nic.in/archieve/others/2006/may2006/2years_upa_gov_may2006/cab_ccea_2years_upa_gov_may2006.asp |title=Major decisions: cabinet |access-date=2007-07-07 |work=Archive |publisher=Press Information Bureau, Governmenmt of India }}</ref> and [[National Institute of Technology, Agartala|Agartala]] (Tripura Engineering College).<ref name=pibraipurtripura/> Based on the request of state governments and feasibility, future NITs are either converted from existing institutes or can be freshly created. The 21st (and the first brand-new) NIT is planned for Imphal in the north-eastern state of Manipur at an initial cost of Rs. 500 [[crores]]. In 2010, the government announced setting up ten new NITs in the remaining states/territories.<ref>

Union Cabinet has approved 10 new NITs in India. NIT, Arunachal Pradesh is one of those new NITs to be mentored by NIT, Durgapur. The institute presently functions from his permanent Campus at Jote, Papum Pare district of Arunachal Pradesh. Itanagar, the capital of Arunachal Pradesh is situated in the same district.
