Greetings from VPKBIET..!

InIndia,Technical&Professionalcoursesaregrowingatarapidpace.Thegrowthinquantityhastobeharmonizedwith the developments onquality front. National Assessmentand AccreditationCouncil (NAAC)has the objectives to facilitate the improvement of quality throughaccreditation,bringmore transparency in theaccreditationprocess. Byimbibingandadhering to thecherishedvalues and beliefs of VPKBIET,I am sure that, VP’s Kamalnayan Bajaj Institute of Engineering &

Technologywillcertainlyreachgreaterheightsinthefieldoftechnicaleducation,intheyearstocome.16yearsago,weembarkedona journey tobecomeoneof the leadingengineeringInstitutes in the State of Maharashtra with the motto to provide quality education at theaffordablecost.TodaywehavethedistinctionofbeingamongstthebestEngineeringCollegesin theStateofMaharashtra,and especially in the Savitribai Phule Pune University, Pune. Inkeeping with the rich tradition of imparting quality education at the affordable cost,VidyaPratishthan’s Kamalnayan Bajaj Institute of Engineering and Technology, VPKBIET, formerlyknownas VidyaPratishthan’sCollegeofEngineering,VPCOE,was founded in theyear2000.SincethenVPKBIEThasendeavoredtoproducegloballycompetentbuddingengineersshiningwith technicalexcellenceand itprovidesstudentswiththeprivilegesofunparalleledexposureto the globalworld. This is possiblewith the vision that development of the student solelydependsonthekindofinputsimpartedtothem,theconducivelearningenvironmentandtheavailableinfrastructure.Inpursuanttothisvision,institutehaslaunched student improvementprogram (SIP) under ‘experience based learning system’ major emphasis is on soft skilltraining,technicalskilltrainingandemployabilityskillstraining.

The infrastructure of the institution is excellent with the state-of-the-art laboratories,digitallibrary,Wi-Ficampus,well-furnishedhostelsforboysandgirls,tomentionafew.AsanEngineeringInstitute,wehave always fostered acultureof innovativeness and inventivenessamongourstudents.Wefirmlybelievethat,itisthisabilitywhichmakesthetransformationofastudent intoprofessional who is ready to take on bigger responsibilities and excel in theglobal engineeringworld.
