Birbhum Institute of engineering and Technology, the First Engineering College at degree level, in the District of Birbhum, has completed ten glorious years of its existence in the year 2009. The district has been contributing in its own subtle way, toward the overall growth of the state. Eminent personalities from the district, from diverse fields of life, have been catalyzing its development process. Education has always been the prime component of development for the district. Tagore found his “Santiniketan” here to spread his concept of education world over, through Viswa Bharati University.

The institute came into existence through earnest dedication of a number of educationists, philantrophist and social workers from the District and outside. ICARE, Birbhum, the parent society behind the shaping of Birbhum Institute of engineering and Technology was formed by eminent personalities like Shri Somnath Chatterjee, (former Speaker of Parliament) Prof. Ramaranjan Mukherji, former Vice-chancellor of two West Bengal Universities and former Chancellor, Tirupati University, Shri Pranab Mukherjee, M.P. (Honourable Minister for Finance, Government of India) Shri Braja Mukherjee, former Sabhadhipati, Birbhum Zilla Parishad, Dr. Ramchandra Dome, M.P., Sk. Islam, former Karmadashkya, Birbhum Zilla Parishad, Shri Apurba Mandal, Karmadashkya, Birbhum Zilla Parishad, and other distinguished personalities from the area..
The Institute started functioning with the prime objective to impart quality technical education, driven by scarcity scenario of the state in the year 1999 after obtaining approval from the All India Council for Technical Education. It is presently affiliated to West Bengal University of Technology. Its Non-profit making objective and benevolent mission prompted various organizations and the Government of West Bengal to provide grants over the years.
