With a humble beginning as a Pre-university college on the auspicious 12th July 1957, NGM College has over the last six decades blossomed into a premier post graduate teaching and research institution in Tamilnadu, attaining the coveted Autonomous status in 1987. It is a co-educational ISO 9001-2015 certified, UGC & AICTE recognized institution, affiliated to Bharathiar University, Coimbatore. In 2007, it was one of the 7 institutions in Tamilnadu to be accredited with ‘A’ Grade by NAAC and was accredited with “A” Grade by NAAC-II Cycle in 2013.

With the advent of autonomy, it became incumbent on the institution to assume many of the responsibilities and functions of a typical university. Consequently, a few academic bodies had to be set up: one of them was the office of COE. To manage all matters relating to the Examination System, a separate body called the Examination Office under the control of a CONTROLLER OF EXAMINATIONS had been constituted.

The Examination Office consists of a Controller of Examinations, One deputy Controller of Examinations, One Office Superintendent, One Software Developer, One Programme Analyst, 7 Clerk-cum-computer operators and one Office Assistant. The Examination Office is now functioning in a centrally located building in the College Campus.

The Examination Office is equipped with one Hi-tech IBM Server One ultra fast line Printer, 1 Epson Scanner and 15 Computers, 2 Digital Copy Printers, 1 Copier Machine, and two intercom phone lines, and One Separate Landline Phone.
