The PGDIE programs by NITIE Mumbai are offered to candidates based on the score obtained in the GATE Examination. 

The final steps of the admission process include a Group discussion round and a personal interview round. The students are granted admission based on their GATE score, Group discussion round, and personal interview.

The eligibility criteria for the PGDIE course at the institute are as follows:

• Candidates who are BE/B.Tech graduates in a relevant stream with an aggregate score of 60%. (55% is applicable for SC/ST/PwD candidates).
• Candidates enrolled in a course and are in the final year of their program can also apply based on the dates of the admission process. 
• These candidates are required to submit the final year mark sheets and provisional certificates to the concerned authorities within due dates. 
• Candidates are required to have a valid GATE score to apply for the programs. 

If you have a valid GATE score along with the mentioned details, then surely you would be eligible for admission into the PGDIE courses at NITIE Mumbai.

Having a few friends who graduated from NITIE, I think I can answer this question.

If you compare NITIE's fee structure among the top b schools of the country, it is still less than most of the institutes apart from the Faculty of Management Studies, New Delhi.

At the same time, the placements are quite good at NITIE. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at the institute is 20 LPA. So I would not claim that NITIE has the best Return On Investment (ROI) but it surely has a better ROI than most of the b schools.

NITIE has the second-best ROI after the Faculty of Management Studies. So choose accordingly and make a wise decision.

NITIE (National Institute of Industrial Engineering) was established under the aegis of the UNDO and ILO and now it is the center of managerial excellence. 

The college is located in a very beautiful place which adds to its ideal environment and makes the campus a good place to study. This college has access to some of the largest Indian and Global companies through which they arrange guest lectures, seminars, and industrial visits. 

In 2013, NITIE celebrated its golden jubilee and during this event, it integrated all the student events into one event, i.e. Avartan which is the grand celebration of NITIE's vision of being the leader of the knowledge led productivity movement. 

In this event, participants from various top business schools compete in various contests. This participation helps in fostering managerial excellence by bringing students, faculty, and industry leaders onto a common platform. 

Hence, Avartan has become a single platform to bridge the gap between classroom learning and practical application which are being used in the real world. 

NITIE has released the GATE cutoff 2021 for PGDMM and PGDPM courses. The required cutoff for different categories is as follows.

Although the cutoff varies each year depending on the application pool, you can give it a try. 

No, you will not be eligible for a stipend even if you have qualified CAT. It is only offered to those who have cleared GATE, UGC NET, and UGC-JRF.

Full-time regular candidates who qualify for financial assistance receive an amount of Rs. 31,000 per month during their first and second year of the fellowship program and the third, fourth, and fifth year of their fellow program, they receive Rs.35,000 per month as per the MHRD guidelines.

One of my friends is an alumnus of NITIE who pursued the PGDMM course. Here is his take on this.

There are numerous opportunities for a student enrolled in this course to lead their career in areas other than core manufacturing.

• This is a unique course that provides a breadth of knowledge in the area of supply chain and operations with a piece of in-depth knowledge about the advanced manufacturing process.
• Students of this course have been placed in reputed IT companies as well as in prestigious consulting companies.
• Many students have got placed in companies offering roles in supply chain and logistics.
• Students from this course have also bagged summer internship opportunities with marketing and finance profiles.

So, you will have plenty of opportunities in fields other than manufacturing.
