Director's Message

Dear students,
     I am delighted to welcome you to Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi, the institute that has molded students to be the leaders of tomorrow for more than a century.
     Since its inception, the institute has delivered engineering education of the highest order encompassing the essence of tradition and modernity and preparing a community of extremely sensible engineering leaders who have exemplarily responded to the call of humanity. Originating from the panoptic vision of its founder Bharat Ratna Mahamana Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya, the institute has remained unfettered in the face of challenges and has proved itself to be a gem on the crown of the city of Varanasi which has been rightly referred to by Mark Twain as older than history, older than tradition, older even than legend....
