The NIFT Centre at Kannur is one of the newer additions to the network of existing government-run fashion schools across India. It started functioning from June 2008, from a transit campus situated at Dharmashala, and moved to its permanent campus at Dharmashala in 2011. The campus is about 16 kilometres from Kannur Town and 7 kilometres from Taliparamba Town.

NIFT, Kannur, in parallel with other centres of the institute across India, offers four-year undergraduate Bachelor of Design and technology and the two-year post-graduate master's degrees in design, Fashion Management and Fashion Technology.

Students are selected through an intensive common entrance examination process, which consists of two written examinations - GAT (General Ability Test) and the CAT (Creative Ability Test). Based on the scores of these written examinations, select students are invited for a situation test. Post the Situation Test, the final rankings of students at an all India level is released. Students then undergo a counselling process to determine their programme and campus. For the post-graduate courses, a group discussion and a personal interview is conducted based on the final rankings.
