With phenomenal increase in students' enrollment in 1970's, a plan to establish additional campuses of the University of Engineering and Technology Lahore was conceived. As a result of that, the University College of Engineering Taxila was established in 1975. For three years it functioned at Sahiwal. In 1978 it was shifted to its permanent location at Taxila. The College continued its working under the administrative control of the University of Engineering and Technology, Lahore till October 1993. During this month it received its charter as an independent university under the University of Engineering and Technology Taxila Ordinance 1993. At present total enrollment of undergraduate and postgraduate students is above 2000.
The University campus is located on the outskirts of Taxila at a distance of 5 km from the city. It is situated near railway station Mohra Shah Wali Shah on Taxila-Havelian branch line. The city of Taxila is 35 km from the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi on the main Rawalpindi-Peshawar highway. The University buses commute daily between the campus and the cities of Islamabad, Rawalpindi and Wah Cantt. The campus covers an area of 163 acres. All the teaching departments, residential colony for teachers/ employees, student hostels, guesthouse, post office and bank are housed on campus.

And if we talk about its location Taxila is a land of beauty، stone trashes and full of ancient places like Stoopa, taxila museum and sirkap etc. The thing which makes this university different from other pakistani university is its borders relations with each other. They are very affectionate to each others.They live like one family. With study I make life time friends which are unforgettable for me.

I still remember the day when i stepped into the main gate of UET,taxila. The Journey towards the electrical department was full of mysteries. The fear of being ragged by the seniors and the excitement of studying engineering was disastrous. But time is a great healer. as time passed a fell in love with UET,Taxila and its belongings. The things that used to irritate me from the word go begin to be a source of sereneness. 2 years have passed by. Right now em 600 km far from UET,taxila sitting on my bed writing this review,enjoying the summer vacations but on the harsh side missing my University too. GoD Bless u UET,Taxila. May u prosper. (Ameen)

A good government institute with not much facilities. Teaching standards are good. Architecture is average. Life is so boring here.
