Admission to Don Bosco Institute of Technology is available through entrance exams such as KCET, COMEDK, and JEE, with KCET specifically for Karnataka students. KCET admissions allow for college choice changes post-allotment, and are merit-based with multiple rounds. COMEDK admissions require clearing the entrance exam, with a selection fee of approximately 55,000 INR for courses like Computer Science and Engineering. The college, affiliated with VTU, employs over 200 faculty members, maintaining a 1:15 faculty-to-student ratio.
Most faculty hold advanced degrees and have substantial industry experience, contributing to a supportive learning environment, especially in the Computer Science department. The curriculum includes assessments and semester exams, with a failure rate of about 10%, but lacks industrial training elements. Fee structures vary: KCET students pay 20,000 to 80,000 INR, plus a college fee of approximately 25,000 INR; COMEDK students pay around 146,000 to 161,000 INR annually; management seats cost 200,000 to 400,000 INR per year.
The college offers flexible payment options. The placement program is strong, with a 60-65% job placement rate and average salaries of 4-5 LPA, reaching up to 27-30 LPA. Major recruiters include TCS, Infosys, and Amazon, among others. Placement activities begin in the 7th semester, and while internship opportunities are growing, many students secure them independently. Scholarships are available, mainly for backward caste students, funded by the Karnataka government, with amounts ranging from 15,000 to 60,000 INR.
Specific scholarships include the Karepass for OBC students (23,000 INR) and the SSP for SC/ST students (65,340 INR). E-pass scholarships provide 19,000 INR for general and Hindu category students. KCET students pay lower fees, around 1 lakh INR annually, while management fees range from 2 lakh to 5 lakh INR, dependent on the branch. Scholarships are mainly for local students, with limited financial aid for others. The college facilitates education loans and supports government scholarship applications.
