• History & Memorable Moments

There were only three technical colleges in Banaras Hindu University up until Independence of India, in 1947. These were Banaras Engineering College (BENCO) in 1919, College of Mining and Metallurgy (MINMET) in 1923 and College of Technology (TECHNO). The first-ever degree courses in Mining, Metallurgy, Ceramics and Pharmaceutics in India were pioneered at BHU. ^[1]

After India became independent, post graduate and doctoral research programmes were also introduced. After the establishment of the Indian Institutes of Technology in 1971, the three engineering institutions of Banaras Hindu University were merged to form the Institute of Technology (IT-BHU). Thus the present Institute came into existence in 1971. The Institute has so far produced more than 22,000 B.Tech. graduates, 2700 M.Tech. post graduates and 650 Ph.D. doctorates. ^[1]

Currently IT-BHU is a candidate for becoming an IIT. ^[1]
