Indian Institute of Technology (BHU), Varanasi (commonly known as IIT (BHU), Varanasi) is a public engineering institution located in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India. Founded in 1919 as the Banaras Engineering College, it became the Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University in 1968. It was designated an Indian Institute of Technology in 2012.[2][3] IIT (BHU), Varanasi has 13 departments and three inter-disciplinary schools.

History

IIT (BHU), Varanasi has formerly been known as the Banaras Engineering College (BENCO), the College of Mining and Metallurgy (MINMET), the College of Technology (TECHNO) and the Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University (IT-BHU). Its establishment is intimately linked with that of the Banaras Hindu University (BHU). The first convocation ceremony at BHU was held on 19 January 1919. The Chancellor of the University, Maharaja Krishnaraja Wadiyar of Mysore who had come to preside over and address the convocation, performed the opening ceremony of the Banaras Engineering College (BENCO) Workshop buildings.[4] An Artisan Course was started on 11 February 1919. BHU has the credit of first starting degree classes in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, metallurgy and Pharmaceutics, thanks to the foresight of its founder, Pt. Madan Mohan Malaviya.

The Department of Geology was started under BENCO in 1920. Courses in Mining and Metallurgy were introduced by the Geology Department. The Department of Industrial Chemistry was started in July 1921. In 1923, Mining and Metallurgy was established as a separate department and in 1944 it was raised to the status of a college forming the College of Mining and Metallurgy (MINMET).[4]

BHU was the first Indian university to introduce the study of Pharmaceutical Chemistry.[4] This initiative was taken in 1932 when a new group of subjects for the B.Sc. Examination consisting of (a) Chemistry, (b) Botany with Pharmacognosy and (c) Pharmaceutical Studies was started in 1934 and in 1935 a new three-year programme leading to the degree of Bachelor of Pharmacy was introduced. The science departments of the University were under the Central Hindu College. In September 1935, a new College of Science was constituted comprising the departments of Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology, Geology, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Industrial Chemistry and Ceramics. In 1937, the Department of Glass Technology also came into existence under this college. The year 1939 witnessed the establishment of a separate College of Technology (TECHNO) comprising the departments of Industrial Chemistry, Pharmaceutics, Ceramics and Glass Technology.[4]

In 1968, BENCO, TECHNO and MINMET were merged into one and the Institute of Technology (IT-BHU) was established integrating the departments of Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Civil and Municipal Engineering, Mining Engineering, Metallurgical Engineering, Chemical Engineering and Technology, Silicate Technology and Pharmaceutics. The Department of Silicate Technology subsequently became the Department of Ceramic Engineering. A separate Department of Electronics Engineering was also established.[4] The departments of Applied Physics, Applied Mathematics and Applied Chemistry were established in 1985.

The earlier system of regional admission based on merit lists was replaced in 1972 by admission through Indian Institute of Technology Joint Entrance Examination (IIT-JEE) for undergraduate courses and Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) for postgraduate courses. In the tenth meeting of IIT Council in 1972, it was also proposed to convert the then IT-BHU into an IIT and a committee was appointed by IIT Council for the same but because of political reasons, the desired conversion could not be achieved then.[5]

In 2003, Committees constituted by MHRD (Professors Joshi and Anand Krishnan Committees)[6] had recommended for the conversion of the Institute into an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT).[7] On 17 July 2008, the government of India issued a press release granting "In principle approval for taking over the Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University – a constituent unit of the Banaras Hindu University, a Central University, its conversion into an Indian Institute of Technology and integrating it with the IIT system in the country."[8] The BHU Executive Council approved the proposal of the HRD ministry to convert IT-BHU to IIT (BHU), Varanasi, retaining academic and administrative ties to BHU.

On 4 August 2010 a bill seeking to amend the Institutes of Technology Act 1961 to declare IT-BHU an IIT was introduced in the Lok Sabha by Minister of State for HRD, D. Purandeswari.[9][10][11] The Lok Sabha passed The Institutes of Technology (Amendment) Act, 2011 on 24 March 2011[12] and the Rajya Sabha on 30 April 2012, thereby formalizing the IIT status of the Institute.[13] The Bill was signed by the President of India on 20 June 2012 and notified in the gazette on 21 June[14]

Kashi Utkarsh

Kashi Utkarsh is a student-run, non-profit organization working for the alleviation of misery, penury and disease chiefly in the village of Lehartara. In fact Kashi Utkarsh is NOT an organization. It is a platform for all human strivings, for all those who have a dream, a vision of a better tomorrow. All it stands for is the COURAGE to DREAM and the STRENGTH to turn them into REALITY. This modest and humble forum has never stood for providing charity to any poor or needy. What it envisaged was giving strength, power and opportunity to people, all who could ever feel needy. A.D. 1997, two students of IIT-BHU Anupam Bansal and Vinod Chaudhary of Ceramic Engineering laid the foundation stone of this organization after realizing that the people amongst the deprived classes or those from the slum clusters lacked in strength as well as motivation. They do not have the vision for a better life. So perpetually prevalent is the lack of confidence and self-respect as well as a conscience that the realm of achievements has grown too narrow, swallowed by an ever pervading monster of impossibility. MILE STONES

  • Annual Blood Donation camps, which have provided greater amount of blood to Sir Sunderlal Hospital, IMS-BHU, than any other camp in all over Varanasi. A record collection of 335 units of blood was donated by IIT students on 24 March 2010.
