Established in 1955 by the visionary industrialist Mr. BM Birla, BIT Mesra was founded with a clear vision to offer its young minds a space, where their imagination could take wings and their ideas fruition. The Institute has currently 18 academic departments and 2 centers. It has successfully conceived and implemented initiatives that have culminated in many firsts:

• First technical institution to establish a Department of Space Engineering & Rocketry way back in 1964

• First to establish static rocket test firing facility

• Initiated the concept of Science & Technology Entrepreneurs Park (BIT-STEP) well before it was adopted as a national model

• First institution to be granted autonomous status in 1972 under UGC Act

• Including the off campuses, BIT Mesra has around 10,000 students
