Diploma in Engineering Examinations was being conducted by the University till 1958. The Diploma Examination in Drawing and Painting and Certificate Examination in Textile Technology were being conducted by the concerned institution. The diploma examination in Shorthand and Typewriting was also being conducted by the University. During 1957, a Director of Textbook and Examination was appointed and the Directorate of Technical Education was formed only in September 1957 with staff strength below 10. Therefore it was practically not feasible to take over the Diploma in Engineering and other Technical Examinations from the University or from other bodies.
