HOW IS BIT PATNA..........PLEASE REPLY

Hi,

The Institute's Extension Centre at Patna was established in 2006, on the request of the Government of Bihar. A Memorandum of Understanding was signed between the Institute and the Government of Bihar in December 2005. Subsequently, the Government of Bihar allotted 25 acres (100,000 m2) of land located between the Bihar Veterinary College and the Jai Prakash Narayan International Airport at Patna and also agreed to release the requisite funds for establishing the Centre. The Foundation Stone of the Centre was laid on 24 December 2005 and construction started in April 2006. The Patna Centre is entirely residential, and all students reside in hostels on the campus. Each hostel has a spacious dining hall. The infrastructure includes laboratories, lecture halls, workshops, playgrounds, gymnasium and a library. The plans for the Centre include construction of 5.25 lakhs square feet of academic space, adequate hostel accommodation for 1200 students and residential facilities for staff, dispensary, playground, gym and guesthouse.

The Patna Centre currently offers the B.E. programmes in the disciplines of:

    * Civil Engineering
    * Computer Science & Engineering
    * Electronics & Communication Engineering
    * Electrical & Electronics Engineering 
    * Information Technology
    * Mechanical Engineering
    * Production Engineering

The Patna Campus is under the process of being developed as a separate institution with the granting of a deemed university status. The institute,is full-fledged in its own and has developed into a center of excellence in a very short span of time. The technical festival TECHNIKA is one of the largest festival in Bihar and Jharkhand drawing over 1000 participants from every corner of the country. This year it showcased a disaster rescue operation demonstration by 102-BN National Disaster Response Force. Previously such demonstration was held at IIT Bombay.

All the Best!
