It gives me immense pleasure to welcome you to Bharat Ratna Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar Rajkiya Engineering College Pratapgarh. It is a state-funded government engineering institution established by the Government of Uttar Pradesh in the academic session 2023–24. The Institute has been functioning from its newly developed permanent campus since the academic session 2025–26.
The institute offers four undergraduate programs: Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Civil Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. Each program has an approved intake of 60 students. The curricula are designed to meet current academic standards and industry requirements. Emphasis is placed on strong fundamentals, practical skills, and professional competence.
The institute aims to serve students from Pratapgarh and surrounding districts, with special focus on those from economically weaker and socially disadvantaged sections of society. We believe that education serves as a vital pathway for social and economic mobility and sustainable development. It seeks to provide affordable, accessible, and high-quality technical education to deserving students who aspire to become engineers despite social or economic limitations.
With extensive experience in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and Data Science, I firmly believe that the future of engineering education must be interdisciplinary, research oriented, and closely connected with real-world applications. At REC Pratapgarh, our academic vision is guided by this belief. We emphasize strong theoretical foundations, hands-on learning, collaborative research, and active industry engagement.
Above all, BRBBAREC Pratapgarh is guided by the principles of social justice, equality, and inclusiveness. The institution is committed to ensuring that opportunity and merit are not limited by socio-economic background. It strives to create a fair and supportive academic environment for all students. Through quality teaching, practical training, continuous mentoring, and value-based education, the institute develops engineers who are technically competent, ethically responsible, and socially aware. These graduates are prepared to contribute meaningfully to national development. I warmly invite students, educators, researchers, and industry partners to join us in this collective effort to build a vibrant, inclusive, and future-ready technical institution.

The Social Club has successfully initiated its activities with a meaningful community outreach visit to Gavan Pati village, Pratapgarh. With a deep sense of respect and understanding for the local community, students engaged warmly with children, highlighting the value of education while appreciating their aspirations, challenges, and everyday realities.
The interaction focused not only on encouraging academic growth but also on building confidence and nurturing dreams for a better future. The children were also warmly invited to visit the institute and make use of its facilities, such as laboratories and sports grounds.
This initiative aims to create an inclusive and supportive environment, strengthening the connection between the institute and the village, and fostering a shared culture of learning, opportunity, and mutual growth.
The Social Club also organized Ramnavami celebrations, including Kanya Poojan and Hawan, in accordance with Indian traditions in the campus of BRBBARECP. On this auspicious occasion, young girls were respectfully welcomed and worshipped as forms of the goddess.
Students, staff, faculty members, and their families participated in the event with devotion and enthusiasm. The Kanya Poojan was performed with great respect and care, followed by the Hawan, creating a peaceful and spiritual atmosphere.
This celebration helped everyone understand the importance of respecting traditions, showing gratitude, and valuing cultural practices. It also strengthened a sense of unity, togetherness, and social values within the institute community.
