Background

Samrat Ashok Technological Institute is located at Vidisha, a town in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. It was established on 1 November 1960 under the "Open Door" policy of Government of India by Maharaja Jiwajirao Education Society Vidisha, with a donation from the Gitanjali Trust Fund of the Scindias, (the erstwhile rulers of Gwalior state), and commitment of non-recurring grants from the Government of India and Government of Madhya Pradesh in agreed proportions.

The foundation of the Institute was laid down by late Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru, Hon'ble Prime Minister of India on 13 February 1962. The institute was inaugurated by late Dr.Rajendra Prasad, Hon'ble President of India.

Initially the institute was affiliated to Vikram University Ujjain to which three other colleges in the region namely MACT Bhopal (now MANIT), Shri Govindram Seksaria Institute of Technology and Science Indore and MITS Gwalior were also affiliated at that time.

After the establishment of Bhopal university at Bhopal (now Barkatullah University) the institute was affiliated to it along with MACT Bhopal and GEC Bhopal.

SATI is academically and administratively an autonomous institute, however, it is a part of the Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya also known as RGPV Bhopal from 1998 and its degrees are issued by this university.

The institute was named after the emperor Ashoka the great who was the governor of the emperor Chandragupta Maurya in Ujjain and Vidisha (formally known Bhelsa). He married Devi, daughter of a businessman of Vidisha.

In March 2016, the institution received NAAC certification. [2] Also the government of India has selected this institute under the world bank scheme TEQIP-III (Technical Education Quality Improvement Program -III) for a financial assistance of Rs-15 crores, after TEQIP-I and TEQIP-II. The objective of this scheme is to establish academic excellence in the institute through various activities and enhance the employment opportunities of undergraduate and post-graduate students.
