School of Engineering Cochin University of Science & Technology Cochin

In which year the School of Engineering was established by Cochin University of Science & Technology? I want to apply for B.Tech Program there, so please tell me about important dates when the admission process will start for B.Tech Program at School of Engineering. I think the Cochin University of Science & Technology conducts own Admission Test, so pls provide procedure that how I can apply for that admission test?
