Later with the changes in the trend and inclination towards more of bridging the gap between Industry and Institution, 3½ year Sandwich Diploma courses ( where student is given one year hands on experience and training in the industry ) in Chemical Engineering have been introduced in the 1995.
These courses aim at training the student in specialized field of Chemical Engineering and Technology .
- Diploma in Chemical Engineering (Petrochemicals)
- Diploma in Chemical Engineering (Plastic and Polymers).
- Diploma in Chemical Engineering (Oil Technology) (Edible). (1996)
- Diploma in Chemical Engineering (shifted from Govt.Polytechnic, Visakhapatnam)
With exclusive Chemical Engineering courses, for unique identification, in the year 2008, Govt.of Andhra Pradesh renamed the Institute as “GOVT.INSTITUTE OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING, VISAKHAPATNAM” (GICE) similar to such institutions existing in the different parts of the state like Govt.Institute of Electronics (GIOE) at Secunderabad, Govt.Institute of Printing Technology at Secunderabad, Govt.Institute of Leather Technology, Hyderabad etc. This is the first Institute for specialization in Chemical Engineering established by Government in the North Coastal Andhra in view of more Chemical Industries existing in this area and for better employment opportunities.
