Over the years, NITIE (National Institute of Industrial Engineering) has created a niche within a niche by offering in-depth and diverse programs in categories such as technology, manufacturing, strategy and sustainability. The prestigious institute has been instrumental in changing the lives of all its students for the better by training young minds to be a good fit for relevant industries. Located at the business-centre of South-East Asia, Mumbai, NITIE serves as the Mecca of supply chain and operations. The recent placement round further helps establish NITIE as the top choice of recruiters for Supply Chain, Operations, Consulting, BFSI and IT/Analytics roles. The placements season for the class of 2019 was remarkable as NITIE saw a diverse mix of companies spread across various domains and functions, offering niche roles to the students.
An enriching student life
Life at NITIE is interesting, busy and productive. Apart from the in-built academic rigour and associated exercises, vibrant academic and non-academic student-driven committees exist which foster the right values, leadership, commitment, ownership and a right approach. The students in all their endeavours are supported by excellent infrastructure, state-of-the-art library, best computational prowess, experienced faculty, trained staff and a 63 acre lush green campus.

A growing community
With a prestigious alumni network, NITIE aims to up the temper by sheer motivation and right exposure. Amongst the illustrious alumni is the founder of Matic Network, Sandeep Nailwal.
