The National Institute of Technology (formerly Regional Engineering College), Surat was established in June 1961 under the joint aegis of the Government of India and the Government of Gujarat. The Institute name begins from the name of India’s first Deputy Prime Minister and Home Minister, popularly known as the Iron man of India, Honorable Shri Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. Following the recommendation of the R. A. Marshelkar Committee, all Regional Engineering Colleges were transformed into the National Institutes of Technology in 2002. Later, the Institute was granted the Deemed University status by the UGC/AICTE and renamed as the Sardar Vallabhbhai National Institute of Technology (SVNIT). In the 2007, the parliament passed the ‘NIT act’. The act granted the ‘Institute of National Importance’ status to the SVNIT. The greatly concerning objective was to maximize the performance of the NIT. That helped the academic trajectory of the SVNIT tend considerably towards the contemporary global standard with inclusivity and diversity.

As a matter of academic reforms, the Institute has adopted new revised curricula for the undergraduate programmes to achieve agreements with global requirements. Significantly, the new curricula offer greater flexibility to augment their learning via the introduction of several sets of electives under different specialized domains. The Institute has begun B. Tech. (Honours) as well as B. Tech. (Minor) degree programmes to give greater flexibility and multidisciplinary approach amongst UG students. It’s National Institutional Ranking framework (NIRF), the Government of India rank among all the technical Institutes is also progressive i.e. 65 & 59 in 2023 & 2024 respectively. The journey of our Institute is progressing consecutively towards better ranking.

Currently, The Institute now offers eleven (11) B.Tech. Degree Programmes, twenty-one (21) M.Tech. Degree Programmes, three (03) Five Years Integrated M.Sc. Degree Programmes in Chemistry, Mathematics & Physics, One (01) Five Years Integrated B.Tech and M.Tech Degree Programme and Master of Business Administration in Business Analytics. Institute offers Doctoral Degree Programme in Engineering, Science, Management and English. Institute also offers M. Tech (R) in all the engineering disciplines. The selection process of the B Tech students and MSc students is done via the performance in the main examination of the JEE. M Tech admissions to the Institute in a specialization are made by considering a valid Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) score in a well-defined paper in combination with a qualifying degree in the given set of degrees. PhD admissions are made via a rigorous selection procedure, including the percentage requirement, GATE score requirements as well as written/interview tests. Institute also admits the foreign students through the Indian Council of Cultural Relation (ICCR) and Study in India (SII) Programme.
