Confirming the right campus and entrance

BIHER’s main campus is in Selaiyur, but the university has four campuses across Tamil Nadu and Puducherry. Use the full address when confirming your appointment, and ask which campus and entrance you should use; the campus name alone may not be enough to identify your destination.

The institute identifies its main campus as Bharath Institute of Higher Education and Research, also known as Bharath Institute of Science and Technology. Its official venue page records that it was established in 1984 as Bharath Engineering College and attained deemed-university status in 2002.

The institute says it provides transport facilities from almost all parts of the city, but you should confirm current routes and boarding arrangements before relying on them. Pallavaram is a named boarding point in a published route list, though its timetable and fare are tied to a specific academic-year schedule and may not apply to your visit.

For a general sense of local connections, the Pallavaram and Chennai transport guide covers getting around the area. Confirm the campus address and your route before travelling, particularly if your appointment is at a campus other than the one in Selaiyur.
