About Us

Indian Institute of Information Technology Bhopal (IIIT Bhopal), was established by the Ministry of Education (MoE), Government of India (GoI) on Not-for-profit Public Private Partnership (N-PPP) ground. It is an Institute of National Importance (INI) founded under the Indian Institute of Information Technology University Act 2017. It is a joint venture of the MoE, Government of India, Government of Madhya Pradesh, and Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya (RGPV) Bhopal (M.P) with contribution in the ratio 50:35:15, respectively. The institute was established with an objective to cultivate the advance knowledge in information technology, and to furnish the IT sector and other related sectors with global standard manpower. The institute is committed to prosecute excellence in higher education, research and development in Information Technology (IT), and associated curriculum. IIIT Bhopal offers B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering (CSE), Information Technology (IT), and Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE). The students are admitted in degree programs only after the clearance of JEE (Main). The institute’s admission process is regulated by Central Seat Allocation Board (CSAB), Government of India and Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA). Currently, IIIT Bhopal is operating temporarily from the campus of Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology, Bhopal.
