The college was established in 1967 as the 15th Regional Engineering College. But, it took almost a decade for REC Silchar to start its academic programmes due to various constraints. The first batch was admitted in November 1977 under the BE programme in three branches— Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Electrical Engineering. The total intake in the first batch was 60 students.
On June 28, 2002 the Regional Engineering College was upgraded to the National Institute of Technology, Silchar with the status of Deemed University. The institute was taken over by the Government of India and subsequently made into a fully funded Central Government Autonomous Institution. It was later declared as an Institute of National Importance by enacting the National Institutes of Technology Act 2007.
