In 1962 the School of Architecture was established to offer a full undergraduate programme by Prof. B. V. Doshi architect, who had returned after working with Le Carbousier, Prof. Bernard Kohn, architect-planner who was a student of Prof. Louis Kahn, and Dr. R. N. Vakil who had studied, taught and worked in the United States and returned to India. There were new ideas and concepts to be tried out in the Indian context. It was also thought to develop a campus offering programmes in related disciplines such as planning, building and construction technology, interior design, landscape architecture, environmental issues, and so on. Thus came the School of Planning (1972) offering postgraduate programmes in urban and regional planning, environmental planning and housing; the School of Building Science and Technology (1982) and the School of Interior Design (1991). Several postgraduate programmes were added as need arose: Urban Design, Landscape Architecture, Construction and Project Management and Structural Design.
In view of the need to create a structure that would utilize the synergy generated by integrating diverse disciplines the Centre for Environmental Planning and Technology (CEPT) was established by the Ahmedabad Education; and, it was registered as a separate public charitable trust and a society in 1994.
