University Institute of Engineering & Technology was established in 2002 as a department of Panjab University with the objective of creating leading Research and Development facilities in the field of Engineering and Technology. UIET has grown at a very fast pace with the number of students increasing from 300 to 650 every year in the past seven years. Admissions to UIET take place on the basis of merit of AIEEE on all India basis.
Different branches have well equipped laboratories with modern facilities where undergraduate as well as postgraduate students perform experiments to gain practical knowledge which is a very important aspect of engineering education. During vacations, training programs are conducted by faculty for students in specialized areas such as Embedded systems, Digital System, Design etc.
To strengthen industry institute interaction, MOU has been signed with different industry and programs are conducted for students which are designed by the industry. Seminars are organized regularly in collaboration with experts from industry so that students are trained to be absorbed by the industry.
It is our endeavour at UIET to create and establish leading R & D facilities. A number of sponsored projects are being carried out by various faculty members from organizations such as AICTE, DIT, DST etc. Students and faculty at UIET have tremendous potential and I am sure UIET will be one of the best institutes in India soon.
