I feel that my alma mater has been deprived of this privilege since a long time. Given that the Central Government has only recognised a few top institutes in the entire country, it is certain that if we do not take this opportunity, someone else will certainly take it. B.E.College has tremendous potential and is well placed to take this stride. We do admit that an institute grows based on the available resources. Being a IIT institute, it will be eligible for huge grants which will give it a boost in developing itself and reaching better standards. West Bengal is the only state in the country which will have the privilege of having the most number of IITs in the country. U.P. has 2 IITs. For once, let us come out of all our prejudices and be together and try to make our state the best state in the country. Having the most no. of IITs will certainly bring the talent pool to our state. (I Belong to West Bengal).Having the talen pool back there, any companies can open there and thus revenue of the state grows.

Global corporates are converging on locations that are able to provide quality human capital - that is the only differentiator. With BESUS becoming an IIT, the state's ability to attract Foreign Corporates and Capital will increase dramatically, and have a multiplier effect on the local economy. If Bengal is to regain its glory of being a center for knowledge, BESUS must become an IIT.

Please accept this opportunity. It may not come soon again. This will be beneficial not only for the students, faculty, & staff. It will give some relief to your cash starved government. Some of the additional grant will definitely trickle down to other neighboring areas. The additional projects, grants that are available once the status is changed has a snowballing effect. Just Grab it.

BESU deserves upgradation to IIT for its excellent contribution to the development of West Bengal, India and the World as a whole

312 Subhojit Roy Alumnus, 1993Maharashtra, India

Chief Minister Buddhadev Bhattacharyya has earned a lot of respect in the recent past for his tremendous contributions to uplift the economy of West Bengal. Kudos to him! Converting Shibpur to an IIT would be another step in the right direction. It will not only enhance the reputation of an institution that is already prestigious, this move will help the state become more prominent as an investment destination. It is well known that IITs are well known all over the world as a premier institute. Shibpur deserves the respect and glory associated with an IIT. I am certain that the hon'ble chief minister will not let this great opportunity slip by. As an alumnus, I would appeal to him to take this as a priority.

Conversion of BEC to IIT would definitely a boon for West Bengal. Despite being the second oldest engineering college in India, BEC is not considered as good as it was before. This conversion will help BEC to regain it's position in the industry and perhaps attract more investors to West Bengal. It is a simple equation. The better the schools are, the better the products (students), more is the scope of industrial ventures and research, which means a better industrial ambiance. More industries means less unemployments, more revenue,a prosporous state. Everybody would agree that industry in West Bengal has slumped during the time respected Jyoti Basu was in power, although our current chief minister is trying to revive the past glory. An IIT will make the ride towards reviving its glory smoother.

Graduate from BECOLLEGE (now BESU) in 1948; Served as a GOI-research fellow for 2 years, as a Faculty of BEC for abour 31 years

West Bengal, India

The under-graduate teaching in the Bengal Engineering College was comparable to that of any angineering institution in the world; the only lacuna was and still is post-graduate education and research.It must be appreciated that without sound post-graduate education and research, undergraduate education and teaching is bound to suffer how hard the teachers try to keep it up. During the last thirty years or so, with the advent of computers, robotics, oprical fiber communication, bio-informatics, nano-science and technology etc., the barrier between various disciplines have broken altogether, newer tools in information and management science have changed the global scenario and the requirement of engineers with innovative mind is the order of the day. Whereas, the IITs have been able to continuously keep pace wit the change because of massive financial support of the Central Government,BECOLLEGE (& BESU) remained static and its product is turning into mediocrity. The opportunity has arrived at its doorstep

Bengal Engineering College, abbreviated as B.E.College, used to be one of the top five engineering schools in India. Now, both its reputation and educational standard have dropped relative to many other Indian Universities, primarily, IITs and IISc, Bangalore. Its conversion to IIT, Shibpur will be immensely beneficial for regaining its status and standard for the following reasons: (i) re-establishing its educational stamndard by attracting excellent faculty and students; (ii) being recognized as a top class institution outside India; and (iii) attracting both national and foreign research grants for both faculty and graduate students. I applaud perseverence and dedication of our alumni for initiating this conversion. I plea to the Government of West Bengal to expedite this issue. This will very likely free some of the financial resources of Westbenal Government to inmprove Regional Engineering Colleges such as REC, Durgapur.

The quality of engineers, emerging from a technology institute, is only as good as the quality of knowledge disseminating from it. As an alumni, competing with alumnus of other colleges in the professional space, I have seen the IIT-ians have had a distinct edge over the others initially by virtue of the project-centric analytical learning. While concepts and theories are taught in class, meaningful knowledge is retained only through projects that mimic the real-world scenario. Currently, BESUS lacks this capability for 2 reasons: (a) Financial constraints to fund these projects driven by state-of-art latest technology (b) Need redefinition of the academic vision and mission, and time-bound actionable steps to implement the new strategy. By assigning BESUS an IIT status, we can overcome the hurdle in (a) and also achieve the objectives of (b). This will truly add a jewel to the crown of Kolkata and embolden the Chief Minister's initiatives to attract knowledge and capital investments in the state.

In order to perform excellence and to compete in National and International level, BESU must be upgraded to IIT. Otherwise it will not be able to deliver excellence in teaching and research anymore in future.

The BESU infrasturcture has the basic potential to be converted to an IIT. Historically students of this institute have held significant professional and teaching positions in leading corporations and institutes. A lift would be a boon to Bengal's technical education.

Rather than "protecting" the students of the state from competition, we should provide them with a cosmopoliton and progressive environment to prepare for the global economy. By elevating the status of BESU to IIT will be first step in this right direction as the rest will follow. It will not help me personally but will for the present and future students of this century-old but sadly lagging seat of learning and engineering education.

BE College should be upgraded to an IIT. West Bengal Govt should pave the way for its upgradation. As the Chief Minister himself is talking about new industrial revolution, a premier Institute like IIT will become handy for the state. Traditionally, premier educational instituites play an important role for industrialization (a fine example is Boston). There is no reason why BE College, the state of West Bengal and the whole of Eastern India should not have that. We have played enough politics, destroyed many premier institutes like Presidency College, Calcutta University in last many decades; lets build some thing which will be remembered by the future generation and be useful for the region. If our esteemed Chief Minister is thinking about Govt loosing its control of 500 odd seats for the state in BE College, we should remember we already have some 20,000 seats in some 50 odd new colleges which came up recently. They will fill the vaccum. Lets just do it. Thanks

Why should our alma mater expect anything short of brilliance?. For decades this instituition has groomed and polished young boys into men who have gone on to represent its instituition proudly, except for a few external factors who dare treat such a hallowed instituition as a politicians playground (no offense to the Chief Minister). I urge all and sundry for whom this institution has served as a shelter of some sort to put thier working hats on, and do everything in thier reach to earn back this institutions rightful place amongst the best in our nation and mother earth.

1207 Asim Kumar Pal AlumniStockholm, Sweden

I guess it is time now for BEC to get its due credit. This will be the last chance to improve the situation of this one-time premier & prestigious institute. If we miss this opportunity to convert it into an IIT, I think slowly BEC will be a dead institute (one among those many unnamed engineering colleges who nobody knows about). I am delighted to see that BEC has been selected as the third best institute for upgradation to IIT. And it will really be a sad event if State Govt. does not provide full support to this upgradation program just to protect any narrow interest of any particular group / community/ political party. I keep hearing news that in India now things are changing and Govt & political parties are aggressively promoting change and positive development. So I have a strong hope that the State Govt will agree to convert BESUS to an IIT.

This is a very rare and privileged opportunity, should not be missed to avail the up-gradation program of our beloved B.E.College, Shibpur to IIT- Shibpur.

I strongly support this move to upgrade BESUS to the status of an Institute of National Importance. There was a time, not many years ago, when BE College was cosidered to at par with any top UG Engineering College in India, and even abroad. It had a tradition of excellence and academic rigor which was recognised by International Academic Community and Industry at large. Unfortunately, this reputation of the College has got eroded over the last fifteen to twenty years. One way of reviving the name is through high quality research activity and PhD programmes. This calls for infusion of capital to upgrade infrastructure facilities and improving the stature of the faculty- induction of young energetic and high technology savvy people amongst the teachers and researchers. We should also expand our horizon in admission of students, and not limit ourselves to local boys and girls only. The upgradation of the University to an INI status will surely facilitate in these matters.

The original IIT at Khargpur was formed largely with the professors from B.E. College. The Regional Engineering College at Durgapur was born in B.E. College and operated in B.E. College for two years before it moved to Durgapur at its present location. Both Tripura Engineering College and Jalpaiguri Engineering College initially got started at the B.E. College. This is a 150-year old institution (older than Calcutta University) of great influence in the field of engineering education. This institution/university deserves to be honored to the level of a national institute of the stature of an IIT. No other engineering university in the east deserves this honor more than the B.E.S. University. It is about time that this institution is recognized for its contribution to engineering education in India. It is to the interest and honor of West Bengal if it is made into an IIT. Thanks!

I am surprised to see that you BEC alumnies are making a petition to make BE college an IIT. BE College should have been an IIT in the year 1856. The leaders of India's prime institution is begging for central funds. It is sad to see that you guys putting up a petition to become an elite institution of India. If you guys do not know, let me tell you BECollege was always a leadrer. Starting from Ullaskar Dutta to todays' leaders of West Bengal (like CPM leader SRIDIP Bhattacharyya or BJP leader Tathagata Roy) came from BE College are from BECollege. My whole family is from BE College. Presidency College and BE College were the brains of India. Shame on you guys that you are begging the the cheap West Bengal prime minister to make it become an IIT. We are way above that folks!!

The BESU (formally BEC) Shibpur, Howrah is a premier technical institution in India. It is the second oldest technical institute in the country after Roorkee University. BESU was established in the year 1856 and became excellor of producing bright engineers. BESU possesses excellent academic environment. BESU Engineers have not only served the nation but also served the world. BESU must be upgraded to IIT to improve the quality of education, environment and facility to the students.
