Training & support
Practical training & industry exposure
KIIT runs Centres of Excellence with named industry partners, including an SAP Centre of Excellence, an IBM Centre of Excellence, a Siemens Lab, an Intel Design Lab, a Tech Mahindra Design Lab, an NI Centre of Excellence and the ISRO KIIT Satellite Centre. Several postgraduate engineering specialisations are co-branded with industry: M.Tech in Next Generation Wireless Technology with Ericsson, M.Tech in Automotive Electronics and Software with KPIT Technologies of Pune, and M.Tech tracks in AI and Data Science, Internet of Things and Cybersecurity with LTIMindtree and L and T EduTech. KIIT Technology Business Incubator, opened in 2008 with Department of Science and Technology and NSTEDB support and recognised as a Centre of Excellence in 2018, supports more than 235 ventures. Public health and biotechnology students sit on a campus that includes Kalinga Institute of Medical Sciences, the university's own super-speciality teaching hospital, and KIIT School of Law operates a Legal Aid Service Clinic and a moot court programme. KIIT reports that more than 757 companies recruited on campus in 2025 with more than 4,621 job offers made; because an Indian Student visa does not permit employment in India, these figures describe institutional recruiting activity rather than any work entitlement for an international student.
