The Institute of Information and Communication Technology (IICT) is one of the institute of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology. The Syndicate of BUET had taken the decision on 28th June, 2001 to start the institute and the formal inaugural ceremony of the institute was held on 2nd September, 2001. The syndicate had taken the decision following a decision of the government in order to produce more professionals in the IT sector. The erstwhile Computer Center of BUET has been taken as the backbone of the institute and the previous center has been modified accordingly to form the institute.
