HBTU Kanpur’s story began in 1920 with the efforts of Sir Spencer Harcourt Butler of the Kanpur Government Institute (now Kanpur). He was then the Governor of the United States (now Uttar Pradesh). The organization initially focused on science and technology. It was later renamed the State Technical Institute in 1921 and renamed the prestigious Harcourt Butler Technical Institute (HBTI) in 1926. Since then, HBTI has become a respected name in science and technology, supporting development and implementation.
He tries to instill good research in his students. School character development shows the right behavior. In 1965, the HBTI achieved self-management, an important step in its development.
In 2016, the government of Uttar Pradesh sponsored HBTI for Harcourt Butler Technical University. This development reflects a broad mission to be a home university and focus on excellence in engineering, technology, science, humanities and management.
The University currently has two campuses: the East Campus covers 77 acres and the West Campus covers an area of 251.8 acres. These schools are located in the center of Kanpur, only about 3 km away.
