K.K.T.M. Government College, Pullut

K.K.T.M. Government College, Pullut owes its origin to the enthusiasm shown and initiative taken by the enlightened people of Kodungallur nearly six decades ago. The College was established on Ist July 1965, to commemorate the services rendered by the Late poet Kunhikuttan Thampuran to Malayalam Literature. His translation of the Mahabharata earned him the title “Kerala Vyasan”. The inspiration behind K.K.T.M. College is the belief that an educational institution would be a fitting memorial for his enviable literary achievements. The College started functioning on Ist July 1965 on a sprawling 25 acre campus in Pullut, a serene hamlet, 3 km. East of the Kodungallur Town. Situated among sylvan surroundings, the site is an ideal spot for Academic pursuit and Research activities. The College was managed by a Trust, the Kodungallur Kunhikuttan Thampuran Educational Trust, until it was taken over by the Government of Kerala in 1972 as per G.O.(MS) 108/72/Edn. Dated 17th May 1972. There were only Pre-Degree courses at the beginning. When it was taken over by the Government Degree Courses in History, Malayalam and Zoology were started. In 1981 a Degree Course in Mathematics was started. The first non-conventional Course B.Sc. Polymer Chemistry was started in 1995.

The introduction of the MA History Course in 1998 added a feather to the cap of the College, elevating the institution to the level of a Post-Graduate College. Degree Course in Botany and Applied Physics was started in 1999. M.A.Malayalam Course started in the year 2010 and M.Sc. Mathematics started in the academic year 2012-13. Malayalam Department was upgraded as a Research Department in 2018 and in 2020 Degree Course in Travel and Tourism management was started. The main building of the College was inaugurated by the then Chief Minister Shri.E.K.Nayanar in 1999 was a milestone in the growth of the College. A new Library building was constructed and inaugurated in 2018. Now the College has the reputation being one of the premier centres of higher education in Thrissur District.The College accredited NAAC B Grade with score of CGPA 2.74 during second cycle.
