Our pledge is to ignite change through immersive learning experiences
Shri Jagannath Gupta
Chairman
“The pursuit of knowledge and excellence shall always reign supreme, and should always remain unfettered, irrespective of one’s caste, creed, sex, religion, language, and nationality.”
It gives me immense pleasure to welcome each of you to our family at Budge Budge Institute of Technology. For quite some time, we have felt the absence of an advanced learning center in this region to meet the growing needs of our great nation. Together, with your help, endurance, and commitment to the sacred body of knowledge, we can fulfill this need. Establishing this technical institution to provide quality education is our way of addressing this gap. On behalf of the Institute, I assure you that our efforts will always be to offer the best possible technical education through our highly qualified teachers and competent associates from reputed organizations like IITs, Jadavpur University, Calcutta University, NIT, IIM, and other educational and industrial institutions. I strongly believe that, over time, we will provide you with education of international standards.
We take pride in associating not only with you but also with your parents, who have been critical contributors to your success until now. Let me take this opportunity to remind each of you that ‘what yesterday was their dream is your vision for tomorrow.’ The pursuit of knowledge and excellence shall always reign supreme and should always remain unfettered, irrespective of one’s caste, creed, sex, religion, or nationality.
As the Chairman of the Jagannath Gupta Family Trust, I hope that with the cooperation of faculty members, research organizations, and reputed educational institutions, we will instill values that serve both industry and society. At the same time, I expect that, in completing your course curricula, you will attain the global leadership qualities expected of technical professionals. I wish you all the best for the future.
Dr. Shubhangi Gupta
Executive Director
The success story of an educational institution is woven around its pillars, which support and facilitate growth. At BBIT, these pillars include students, parents, faculties, technical and non-technical associates, and management. Each of these pillars carries its own vision, hopes, aspirations, achievements, and expectations.
Our Institute operates under the leadership of our Chairman, Sri Jagannath Gupta, an experienced industrialist and philanthropist. In addition to his guidance, we are supported by experienced Trustees, Advisory Boards, and a Governing Body that consistently guide, support, and appreciate our endeavors.
We launched this esteemed technical institute in the industrial vicinity of Budge Budge in 2009 with an intake of 60 students each in the BTech programs for Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics & Communication Engineering, and Computer Science & Engineering, along with the Master of Business Administration (MBA) program.
Within just one year, our management constructed a colossal infrastructure, transforming our institution into a technical campus. This expansion included the introduction of Polytechnic programs in Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics & Tele-Communication Engineering, and Computer Science & Technology, each with an intake of 60 students per stream.
From the very first year, BBIT students have gained industrial exposure through collaborations with various industries in Kolkata. BBIT is dedicated to providing quality education through our distinguished faculty, most of whom hold PhDs and have affiliations with renowned institutions like IIT, NIT, CU, JU, BESU, and more. We maintain a faculty-student ratio well below 1:15, in accordance with AICTE norms. Special classes are conducted for students who need additional help with the curriculum. Each faculty member is also a mentor, providing students with proper guidance.
Our faculty members participate in continuous seminars and evaluations, with feedback from students, ensuring they remain at the forefront of educational excellence. To secure future placements for our students, BBIT has partnered with various industries, facilitated by a dedicated placement officer who coordinates proper training and internships. From its inception, the Institute has demonstrated a strong inclination towards extracurricular activities. Starting with a few fun-filled events on Viswakarma Puja to organizing Annual Sports, BBIT has quickly established a niche for itself. Our second fest, “Verve 2011,” saw active participation from all members, reflecting our vibrant campus life. BBIT’s willingness to adapt to the ever-changing educational landscape will undoubtedly elevate it to new heights. This promise, held dearly by all members of the Institute, will be realized in the days to come.
