The Polytechnic University of Tirana is inherited from the Polytechnic Institute, founded in 1951. Later on, in 1957, some other faculties were established and the Polytechnic Institute was converted into the State University of Tirana.
In 1991 the Polytechnic University of Tirana split up from the University of Tirana, under the provisions of recent legislation and from then on now
it keeps the status of an independent chartered institution.
