KIIT started in 1992-93 as an Industrial Training Institution. However, 1997 is considered the base year for the University as undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Engineering, Management and Computer Applications were added. In 2007, many new schools were added to its umbrella – School of Law, Biotechnology, Medical sciences, Dental Sciences, Nursing, Mass Communication, Film and Media, Fashion and KIIT International School. Since then, there has been no looking back! Today, KIIT offers professional education to around 40,000 students from across India. This includes 2000 international students from 65 countries. The alumni of KIIT, over a lakh of them made their mark in their respective careers in academics, corporate organisations, civil services and enterprise.

KIIT, though a very young institution has performed incredibly well in the rankings conducted by various national and international associations. Founded in 1992 and opened five years later as a centre for higher learning, its commitment to teaching excellence led to the grant of university status under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956 by the Ministry of Human Resources Development, Govt. of India in 2004, within only seven years of its inception. It holds a Limca Record for this accomplishment. Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology was ranked 16th among Indian Universities by National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF), Ministry of Education, Government of India.

KIIT has become the only institution in the country to have accreditation from ABET, USA in all six engineering programmes, besides also being accredited by all the statutory bodies of the Govt. of India. This growth has been led by an unwavering commitment to the success of its students. Holistic development enabling students to succeed in their chosen careers and other aspects of life is the underlying philosophy that drives KIIT in all its academic and curricular endeavours. The cosmopolitan campus of KIIT is replete with all facilities to support students’ interests and aptitudes. No wonder our students are high achievers. KIIT is known for its excellent track record of placements since its inception. Students have also excelled in many other socially relevant fields such as entrepreneurship, academic placements in top national and global universities, and success in competitive examinations like civil services and judicial services.
