Overview
About KIOT
Knowledge Institute of Technology is an engineering college in Salem, Tamil Nadu, established in 2009. Knowledge Institute of Technology is autonomous. It is affiliated to Anna University, Chennai. Knowledge Institute of Technology offers 26 programmes, 9 at undergraduate level and 4 at postgraduate level. These include Mechanical Engineering, Electronics and Communications Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering and Civil Engineering, among others. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 1068 seats. The 2025-26 mandatory disclosure explicitly reports 51 laboratories, Dr. K. Mechanical, ECE, EEE and CSE for 2025-26 through 2027-28. The 2025 prospectus reports 30+ Centres of Excellence, 20+ industry-sponsored/linked laboratories, 39 patents filed, 26 published and 3 granted, plus 50+ Ph.D. research scholars; these prospectus figures are not necessarily target-year 2026-27 values. Parent hospital is not applicable to this engineering college. Current official pages identify this as an autonomous, private self-financing engineering college affiliated to Anna University. The college-hosted AICTE material located is for 2025-26, not a 2026-27 EoA; therefore no 2026-27 course intakes are carried forward. The college mandatory disclosure claims NBA accreditation for Mechanical, ECE, EEE and CSE for 2025-26 through 2027-28, but the previously cited NBA page does not substantiate a KIOT entry; NBA programme values are therefore removed rather than treated as verified. No disputed campus figures are retained.
