Mangaluru, Mar 19: Nitte University, ranked 66th in NIRF 2024 and accredited with an A+ grade by NAAC, has long been recognised for its academic excellence. With state-of-the-art facilities, highly qualified faculty and a strong industry connect, Nitte continues to shape the future of engineering education.

Beyond rankings and accolades, what truly sets Nitte apart is its unwavering commitment to student well-being. This dedication was recently recognised on a national level, as Nitte’s NMAM Institute of Technology, received the best COPE College of the Year Award for providing mental health support for students at the Nitte campus, from the Aditya Birla Education Trust at the annual Counselling and Outreach for Peer Empowerment (COPE) Meet and Award Ceremony. 

 

Selected from 90 participating institutions across India for the academic year 2023-24, this prestigious honour highlights Nitte’s proactive efforts in fostering a campus culture where mental well-being is a top priority.

 

 

Choosing an engineering college isn’t just about the best programmes or highest placement packages - it’s about finding a place where students feel safe, valued and supported throughout their academic journey.

At Nitte’s two engineering colleges - NMAM Institute of Technology (NMAMIT) in Nitte and Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (NMIT) in Bengaluru - students aren’t just given the tools to succeed in their careers, they are provided with an ecosystem that nurtures their emotional and mental well-being.

 

 

Recognising the pressures of modern education, Nitte has built a comprehensive student support system that ensures mental health is not just an afterthought but a priority.

The student well-being & counselling centres of the university, staffed with trained psychologists and counsellors, offer a safe space for students to seek guidance on academic stress, personal challenges and career anxieties. Regular mental health awareness programmes, workshops on stress management and one-on-one counselling sessions empower students to navigate their journey with confidence.

In addition to mental well-being, Nitte takes proactive steps to create a secure and inclusive environment. Round-the-clock security, anti-ragging policies, health centres and helplines ensure that every student feels safe on campus.

The university also collaborates with external organisations to bring mental health experts for seminars, skill-building sessions and crisis intervention training for faculty and student leaders.

 

 

While the focus on student well-being is a pillar of Nitte’s philosophy, its academic offerings remain among the most sought-after in the country.

The university offers over 15 NBA accredited BTech programmes across NMAMIT and NMIT, covering core engineering and emerging fields such as Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, Cyber Security, Robotics and VLSI Design. Admission to these programmes is through NUCAT (Nitte University Common Admission Test), a single, streamlined entrance test that opens doors to limitless opportunities.

 

With 600+ recruiters, a highest package of Rs 53 lac per annum and a consistent placement rate of over 90%, Nitte University continues to create engineers who are industry-ready. Yet, it is the student experience - the balance of academic rigour and emotional well-being - that makes Nitte a truly unique choice.

 

 

For students looking for more than just an engineering degree, Nitte offers an education grounded in care, resilience and holistic development. As the university continues to set benchmarks in both academic and student support, it remains steadfast in its promise - where there is space for every dream, there is space for every student’s well-being too.
