Eventhough ‘Sri Ayyappa Polytechnic College’ came into being at Tittakudi in Cuddalore district in 1997 and shifted to the present location later, it slipped into a position where only 300 students remained on its rolls in 2005. The present management took over its reins from 2005. With a sense of commitment & a burning vision, this management cared for the college. One more Polytechnic College by name “Ayyappa Polytechinic College” was established in 2008 and the total students strength has jumped to nearly 2000 now, within a span of 6 years.
