== History ==
Veer Surendra Sai University of Technology was initially founded as University College of Engineering(UCE), Burla, under the direction of the Government of [[Odisha]], as the first engineering college of the state, in 1956. The primary purpose of the college was to supplement white collar workers, in the form of electrical, civil, and mechanical engineers, to the nearby [[Hirakud Dam]] project. The foundation for the college was laid by the first Prime Minister of the country, [[Jawaharlal Nehru]]. The first batch contained 20 students, consisting of 3 branches, namely Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering.
The University later passed on to the administrative control of the [[Sambalpur University]], and then under the control of the [[Biju Patnaik University of Technology]]. In 2008, the students of UCE actively campaigned for due recognition as an independent university, culminating in the university being founded in 2009.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.vssut.ac.in/history.php|title=History :: Veer Surendra Sai University of Technology|website=www.vssut.ac.in|access-date=2019-09-20}}</ref>
