Jahangirabad Institute of Technology (JIT) is an institute under Jahangirabad Educational Trust Group of Institutions approved by All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) for establishment of integrated campus for offering multiple disciplines in Engineering & Management.
The institute is promoted by a number of professionally successful Indians who are settled abroad and have come together to promote higher education with leadership skills to give back to the community.
The institute is located in the historic fort of Jahangirabad, in Barabanki District, about 40 km from Lucknow city.

Greetings!
I would like to see coming to life the Jahagirabad Institute of Technology (JIT) branding as a campus for distinctive learning, and I am inviting the JIT community to take the lead in achieving this goal with inspiration from the words of wisdom through the ages, such as, “Education is not the filling of a vessel but the kindling of a flame”, “Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire”, “The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows”, and “Education is a shared commitment between dedicated teachers, motivated students and enthusiastic parents with high expectations. Let curiosity be the driving force for innovation and creativity in learning at JIT.
