BHU IT Varanasi
Institute of Technology, same all former Faculties and Departments of the Banaras Hindu University, also owes its being to the far-descried imagination and relentless efforts of its founder Mahamana Pandit Madan Mohan Malviya. During the days of freedom struggle, three engineering and technological institutions were founded by Malviyaji, viz. the Banaras Engineering College (BENCO) in 1919, the College of Mining and Metallurgy (MINMET) in 1923 and the College of Technology (TECHNO).
The first-ever degree courses in Mining, Metallurgy, Ceramics and Pharmaceutics in India were pioneered at BHU. After our country became independent, post graduate and doctoral research programmes were also introduced. It is an founded history that BENCO, MINMET and TECHNO produced prominent engineers who manned several industries, academic institutions, R & D Labs and others, thus furnishing the much necessitated technological leadership/skills in several sectors of indigenous development.
IT-BHU pioneered degree courses in mining, metallurgy, ceramics and pharmaceutics in India. The great nationalist leader, Pundit Madam Mohan Malaria, founded the Banaras Hindu University in the year. The Banaras Hindu University has a rambling campus, spanning around acres. It has well asserted roads (crossing each other at right angle), extensive greenery, a temple, an airstrip and buildings, which are an architectural delight.
