History

MMMUT has its roots in Madan Mohan Malaviya Engineering College (MMMEC), established in 1962.[1] In October 2012, the Government of Uttar Pradesh announced that it will upgrade the college into a residential university, quoting the lack of technical education in Uttar Pradesh since the reorganisation of 2000, when Roorkee University went to Uttrakhand.[2] The university was established a year later through the Uttar Pradesh Madan Mohan Malaviya University of Technology Act, 2013,[3] which was passed by the government in September 2013.[2]
