About us

The founder of Agnel Ashram, Fr. C. Rodrigues was a great visionary. His vision was to foster love and understanding among the various communities in India and to contribute to the development of self-reliance among the youth through education. Agnel Polytechnic in Vashi, Navi Mumbai, was started in 1983 with only one program – Diploma in Civil Engineering. It has grown since then, and today we have five branches of study in the polytechnic – Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Automobile Engineering,  Electronics & Computer Engineering and Artificial Intelligence & Machine learning. What makes Agnel Polytechnic a unique institution in Mumbai is its discipline and culture and the dedication of the faculty in imparting knowledge and expertise to the students in a cosmopolitan atmosphere.
