NIAT Scales Nationwide with 10+ Campuses, Offering Industry-Ready B.Tech
Hyderabad [India], May 1: India's engineering education is undergoing a much-needed transformation, and leading the way is the NxtWave Institute of Advanced Technologies (NIAT). A new-age institute offering a B.Tech in Computer Science in collaboration with UGC-approved universities, NIAT has now expanded to over 10 campuses across India, blending the credibility of recognised degrees with the power of industry-focused learning.
Founded by IIT and IIIT alumni, NIAT was built around one question: What if college actually prepared students for the industry world and beyond it? With a curriculum reverse-engineered from the hiring practices of top tech companies and mentorship from those who have built products at global giants, NIAT helps students upskill from Day 1 and bridge the gap between classroom knowledge and real-world impact.
The NIAT student journey: How it works
1. Select NIAT Corporate B.Tech at a partnered university
2. Study at the university's campus with an NIAT program embedded
3. Learn through NIAT's proprietary curriculum and pedagogy
4. NIAT academic and operational teams are deployed on the ground to ensure consistency
5. Earn a UGC-recognised B.Tech certificate upon completion
6. Graduate with an IRC 4.0 certificate (Industry-Ready Certificate), co-recognised by NSDC, validating skills, projects, and employability
Consistent learning across India
NIAT was initially established in Hyderabad, where its first campus laid the foundation for a new model of engineering education. As demand grew for its industry-ready curriculum and hands-on pedagogy, NIAT expanded its footprint across the country to meet the needs of students and the evolving tech industry.
At NIAT, students graduate with a UGC-recognised B.Tech degree in Computer Science, partnered with top institutions such as
* NIAT Delhi - Sharda University
* NIAT Pune - Ajeenkya DY Patil University
* NIAT Mangalore - Yenepoya University
* NIAT Kolhapur - Sanjay Ghodawat University
* NIAT Vijayawada - NRI Institute of Technology
* NIAT Chennai - Takshashila University
* NIAT Rajampet - Annamacharya University
* NIAT Jaipur - Vivekananda Global University
* NIAT Hyderabad - Chaitanya University
Students appear for a single B.Tech degree examination, just like any other recognised engineering program. The difference lies in what and how they learn. Regardless of campus, every NIAT student follows the same advanced curriculum, pedagogy, and mentorship model, crafted by NIAT.
In addition to the degree, students also earn an Industry-Ready Certificate (IRC) upon graduation, validating their tech skills, project experience, and job-readiness, an essential layer of credibility in today's competitive job market.
Placement access across India
NIAT offers one of the most flexible and student-first placement systems. Students studying at any NIAT campus can participate in placement drives held across other NIAT locations.
So if a student in Hyderabad wants to explore job opportunities in Delhi or Bangalore, they can do so. This pan-India placement access ensures students never have to compromise on location or role fit.
Backed by a network of 3000+ hiring partners, NIAT offers more than just placement support, it delivers a career ecosystem. From structured interview coaching to personalised career guidance, everything is designed to match students with roles that truly fit their potential.
And the impact is already visible.
In just 8 months, over 400 students secured paid internships in their very first semester. The rest are on track to challenge every norm that traditional engineering education has set.
This isn't an exception, it is the new benchmark for what students should expect from their B.Tech experience.
Campus life that fosters creativity and leadership
NIAT campuses are equipped with modern infrastructure, AR/VR labs, drone and programming zones that simulate real-world tech environments.
Clubs across domains like Entrepreneurship, Gen AI, Sports, Indoor Games, Competitive Public Speaking, Media, Social Impact, and Performing Arts give students creative spaces to collaborate, lead, and grow beyond academics.
The NIAT advantage: Curriculum that evolves with the industry
NIAT's 4-year B.Tech program is structured to continuously upskill students at every stage, from foundational coding to industry-level problem-solving and specialisations.
Year 1: Build strong foundations
* Computer Science fundamentals and MERN Stack
* Start coding from Day 1 with real-world projects
* Early exposure to Generative AI, Data Science, and Automation
Year 2: Problem-solving mastery
* Master data structures and algorithms
* Learn frameworks used by top tech companies
* Prepare for global hackathons like GSoC and ICPC
Year 3: Choose your specialisation
* Software engineering track: System design, scalable architectures
* AI/ML & Data science track: Big data, Predictive Modelling, ML deployment
Year 4: Industry immersion
* Build production-ready applications in capstone projects
* Get PPO-ready through structured interview preparation
NIAT also includes hands-on workshops in Physical AI, covering IoT, Robotics, and Autonomous Vehicles, giving students exposure to the technologies shaping the next decade. A mentorship model built for real impact
NIAT uses a three-layered mentorship system:
* SuperMentors: Industry experts from MAANG companies conduct masterclasses and project reviews
* Academic mentors: IITians and software developers provide deep subject guidance and code-level feedback
* Success coaches: Offer non-academic support in time management, mindset building, and productivity
This multi-dimensional support system ensures that students are never alone in their journey and continuously upskill with expert guidance.
NIAT: The degree that begins with experience
As NIAT continues to grow, it is proving that the future of engineering lies in education that is hands-on, adaptive, and deeply industry-connected.
This new-age institute offering a B.Tech in Computer Science is built not just for students who want to pass exams, but for those who want to upskill, build, and lead in the world of technology.
Because at NIAT, one doesn't just graduate with a B.Tech degree, one gets a degree in experience.

SOP booklet to guide, support women farmer bodies
Lucknow: The launch of a a Panchtantra video and a standard operating procedure (SOP) booklet on women farmer producer organisations (FPOs) under the National Rural Livelihoods Mission (NRLM) marked a key moment at the fifth edition of the India Rural Colloquy (IRC) 2025: UP chapter organised by Transform Rural India (TRI) on Saturday at the Radha Kamal Mukherjee auditorium of Lucknow University. Both resources aim to empower rural women through collective entrepreneurship, accessible training and structured institutional support. The Panchtantra video simplifies the complex functioning of FPOs and presents real success stories, helping even semi-literate women imagine themselves as business leaders. The SOP booklet provides step-by-step guidance on forming, managing and scaling women-led FPOs, with a focus on govt schemes, market access and funding. These initiatives will be promoted through awareness camps among women in rural areas. Speakers at the event addressed critical rural issues like crop losses, water scarcity and lack of integrated policy. They stressed the need for inclusive models, infrastructure and local innovation to build a stronger rural economy. "India loses Rs 2.5-3 lakh crore in agricultural produce each year due to poor storage and logistics. Rural reforms must now take centre stage," said Prof Arvind Mohan, LU's dean for faculty of arts. Padma Shri Uma Shankar Pandey said, "We must secure our future with water, not wealth. The next generation will fight over water, not oil." Associate director at TRI, Kareem Malik said, "Initiatives like carbon finance and the 'Lakhpati Didi' programme show how grassroots ideas can shape national policy when scaled thoughtfully."

U.S. is the largest market for some of the Indian textile and engineering goods, say exporters
Exporters of textiles, garments, and engineering goods fear that the 25% tariff imposed by the U.S. will not only lead to loss of orders but also put them in a quandary as no other market has the high volume demand as the U.S. The Union Minister for Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal met delegations from the textile and engineering export councils on Friday. 'We have impressed upon the Minister that for some of the textile products, 60% to 70% exports goes to the U.S. We cannot get such high volume from any other market and if we lose the US buyers, companies supplying these products will be hit hard,' said one of the textile exporters. In the case of engineering goods too, the U.S. is the leading buyer for some of the products for several years. 'The competing countries have relatively lesser tariff. Countries that have tariff higher than India are really not competitors. Hence, there should be a detailed study now on the product lines that will be hit by the 25% tariff,' said an engineering exporter. The exporters have urged the government to reintroduce the interest subvention scheme. Indian exporters, mainly the micro, small and medium-scale enterprises, have 2% to 3% disadvantage because of the high interest rates in India compared to the competing countries. Now, they will face higher cost disadvantage because of the tariff. The exporters have also sought supportive measures from the government so that they can supply at competing prices to the U.S. buyers.

Four arrested in Rs 3 crore online investment fraud in Hyderabad
HYDERABAD: The Cybercrime police arrested four persons in connection with an online investment scam, in which a Hyderabad resident lost Rs 3 crore. The accused have been identified as Srinivas Manubothula, a software consultant from Narsingi, Rangareddy, Syed Yousuf, a real estate agent from Aghapura, Chekka Yeshaya alias Shekar from Banjara Hills, and Mohammed Jaber Ahmed, a businessman from Mehdipatnam. According to the police, the victim, a resident of North Lalaguda, lodged a complaint on June 28 alleging that on April 14, a woman named Anu Pritha Daga, posing as an assistant mentor to one Ajay Garg, purported to be the CEO of SMC Global Securities Ltd, invited him to join an online investment group via WhatsApp. On May 29, Daga persuaded the complainant to invest in the group through a website link she shared. Claiming they provided SEBI-approved trading and cash management services, she convinced him to invest in the Initial Public Offering (IPO) of a fictitious company, 'Influx Health Tech Ltd'. The complainant was allegedly allotted shares worth Rs 49 crore without his consent. When he raised objections, the fraudsters agreed to reduce the allotment and requested Rs 3 crore, which he transferred across 16 bank accounts. Initially, he was allowed to withdraw Rs 10,000 to build trust. However, he was later told his account had gone into a negative balance due to non-payment for the Rs 49 crore worth of shares. When they demanded more money, he realised he had been tricked. Srinivas had started a drone software company in 2023 and opened a current account in the name of 'Drones Spray'. Facing financial losses, he was introduced to others who wanted to use accounts for 'investments'. In exchange, he was promised a 10% commission on the deposited amount. Syed Yousuf and his accomplice allegedly travelled to Mumbai with the SIM card linked to Srinivas' bank account. Fraudsters transferred Rs 4.3 crore into the account, which was then distributed across various accounts via net banking.
