History
The idea of building an institute in Ujjain was conceived by Prasar Shikshan Evam Seva Sansthan (PSSS) with the aim to transform young talent into competent and socially responsible professionals with a global vision. Mahakal Institute of Technology (MIT Ujjain) was inaugurated by the then Hon’ble Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh Mr. Digvijay Singh on 26 July 2001.[1]
In the academic session of 2001-02 MIT, Ujjain began with just 220 students and few faculty members in the varied streams. The institute then had only four branches of Engineering: Electronics and Telecommunication, Computer Science, Information Technology and Electrical and Electronics. Mahakal Group of Commerce offers some online courses in finance and accounting.
Campus
The location of MIT campus has also been chosen with utmost care atop a small hill in the most serene, scenic and pollution free surroundings with carefully landscaped garden and lush green trees set amidst the picturesque, unpolluted ambience and environment, away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The MIT campus is set up in a sprawling campus of 50 acres which is conducive and ideal for learning and sharing wisdom.
