DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING

1. History of the Institute:

M. S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology was started in 1962 by the late Dr. M.S. Ramaiah, our
Founder Chairman who was a renowned visionary, philanthropist, and a pioneer in creating several
landmark infrastructure projects in India. Noticing the shortage of talented engineering
professionals required to build a modern India, Dr. M.S. Ramaiah envisioned MSRIT as an institute
of excellence imparting quality and affordable education. Part of Gokula Education Foundation,
MSRIT has grown over the years with significant contributions from various professionals in
different capacities, ably led by Dr. M.S. Ramaiah himself, whose personal commitment has seen
the institution through its formative years. Today, MSRIT stands tall as one of Indias finest names
in Engineering Education and has produced around 35,000 engineering professionals who occupy
responsible positions across the globe.
2. History of the Department:

Instituted in 1978, the Department was the first to offer a course in Chemical Engineering by a selffinancing engineering institution in Bangalore and the fifth in MSRIT. Since its inception the
department has moved steadily towards the fulfillment of its mission and is emerging as a
significant player in the academic landscape of Chemical Engineering education in our country. The
Department is certified thrice in succession by the National Board for Accreditation and is also ISO
9001:2008 certified for imparting quality education. Over 1900 students have graduated in 32
batches. The Department has secured majority of the university ranks. The expertise of the faculty
covers a wide range of disciplines and they are engaged in cutting edge technological research. The
average experience of faculty in the department is more than twenty years and they are alumni of
IISc, IIT and NITs. Enriching insights by eminent dignitaries from the practicing world is arranged
under the activities of Society of Chemical Engineers a body comprising of chemical engineering
community of the institute. The department is approved as Research Center by VTU for higher
qualifications like M.Sc. Engg. (by Research) and Ph.D. degrees. Research Projects from DRDO,
AICTE and VTU has been successfully completed. The Annual Technical Symposium organized
by the department for students RASAYAN encompasses a plethora of events such as Paper
presentations, Poster presentations, M.S. Ramaiah Memorial Technical Quiz etc to challenge the
young minds. The Bangalore Regional Centre of the Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers is
functioning from this department for more than a decade. The countrys most prestigious event in
Chemical Engineering Indian Chemical Engineering Congress - CHEMCON-2011 was organized
here. The event invited the top chemical engineers of the nation to our institute. A joint session
with Canadian Universities in the area of Energy and Environment was also a part of this event. The
department offers excellent infrastructure and students have won various prestigious awards,
international internships and high accolades for innovative projects.
