JMI & JIT |
| |
The Jahangirabad Educational Trust (JET) was established in the year 2001. The main objective of the trust was to establish centres of higher learning in economically and socially backward areas of the country. The trust decided to create an umbrella organisation of education centres christened as Jahangirabad Institute of Technology. JIT, in a phased manner, plans to launch a large number of world class research and training centres. |

Genesis |
| |
Jahangirabad fort, a 19th century monument, built across the serene and picturesque environs of more than 30-acre campus in Barabanki district, is situated at about 35 kilometres from Lucknow. Mr. Manzoor Ghori a social activist, a man who has devoted decades for development of socially disadvantaged groups and victims of natural and manmade disasters, an Indian settled in the USA, first dreamt of converting this neglected fort into a world class centre of education and research. |

Chance Meeting |
| |
A chance meeting with Gauhar Raza, a scientist working in the field of communication in India crystallized into idea of a world-class media institute. The institute has been conceived to facilitate professional training for both Indian and international students in the disciplines of documentary filmmaking, broadcast journalism, photography, advertising media research and other related fields. The endeavour was based on a firm belief in the potential of mass media to act as a catalyst for social development. |
|
Step Forward |
| |
The institute boasts of a wide range of sophisticated and latest digital technology and equipment such as cameras (video and still), editing software, studio equipments and lights that'll help the students keep pace with the technology in the market. A posse of experienced and dynamic faculty; the crème de la crème of media practitioners, filmmakers, photographers, journalists, etc. as visiting faculty, an extensive media library, hostel facilities etc. are some factors that lend a cutting edge to JMI in the field of media education.
