UPES M.Tech Admissions 2025
Ranked #46 Among Universities in India by NIRF | 1950+ Students Placed 91% Placement, 590+ Recruiters
To commemorate the birth centenary of Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji, the KIET Group of Institutions celebrated World Environment Day through a tree plantation drive, an essay writing competition, and a poster making competition. On this special occasion, the students, teachers and administrative officers of KIET Group of Institutions took active participation, highlighting the importance of environmental protection.
The program started with a tree plantation drive in the institute campus, in which the senior officials, teachers and students of the institute together planted various types of shady, medicinal and fruit trees. The aim of this plantation effort was not only to increase greenery, but it was also an important step towards connecting the coming generations with nature.
After this, essay writing competition and poster making competition were organised by the students on the topics “Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ji: A Visionary Statesman and his Pioneering Role in Nation Building”, “Say No to Plastic, Say Yes to Planet” or “From Pollution to Solutions: Eliminate Plastic Waste Now”.
A street play was also presented in the program, in which students gave effective messages on topics like environmental imbalance, plastic pollution, deforestation and water crisis through acting.
Dr. Manoj Goel, Joint Director of the Institute, said, "Protecting the environment is not just a one-day activity, but it is a continuous process. We have to take small steps in our daily lives that are in harmony with nature. This year's Environment Day is especially important as it is being celebrated during the birth centenary year of Bharat Ratna, Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji. Atal ji's life has been a symbol of dedication towards nature, culture and national service. His philosophy inspires us to establish harmony between environmental balance and development."
This initiative by the Institute was not only an important step towards environmental protection, but it also proved to be an empowering factor in the personal development and sense of social responsibility of the students.

On Question asked by student community
Dear student,
Yes, you can use your EWS category rank for admission to KIET Ghaziabad through UPTAC counselling , as seats are allotted based on category ranks for reserved candidates.
Now, about your chances:
With an
EWS rank of 1,30,638
, getting
ECE at KIET
is
highly unlikely
. In recent years, the
closing EWS rank for ECE
at KIET has been around
35,000 to 40,000
. If you’ve seen a closing rank like
347,725
, that might actually be the
CRL
, not the EWS rank. Category cutoffs are always much lower.
KIET Ghaziabad and JIIT Noida are both good private engineering colleges. But JIIT Noida is a little better in terms of placements, especially for Computer Science and IT branches.
JIIT Noida gets more big companies like Amazon, Adobe, and other product-based companies. The average package in JIIT for CSE is around 7 to 8 lakh rupees per year. Some students also get very high packages above 20 lakh. KIET also has good placements, but the average package is slightly lower, around 5 to 6 lakh per year.
The campus of JIIT Noida is modern and clean. KIET has a bigger campus and more hostel space. JIIT is stricter in academics. KIET follows AKTU university syllabus.
So if you want better job placements, JIIT Noida is slightly better. If you want a bigger campus with good facilities and lower fees, then KIET is also a good choice.

Choosing between computer science engineering (cse) at JSS, AKG Or kIET depends upon several factors:
JSS academy of technical education: known for good academic performance and infrastructure and have decent placement records. Average package around rupees 4-6 LPA with companies like TCS, wipro etc. Active campus life with various clubs and activities.
Ajay kumar garg engineering college : praised for its faculty and academic rigor . Strong placement records and industry connection. Average package around rupees 4-5 LPA with companies like Amazon, infosys etc. Excellent infrastructure with modern labs and libraries. Vibrant campus life.
Krishna institute of engineering and technology: consistently ranked among the top private engineering colleges. Average package around rupees 5-6 LPA , with top recruiters including Microsoft, IBM etc. State of the art infrastructure with all student facilities. Dynamic campus environment with a range of activities.
In my opinion KIET is better because it has a very strong alumni network. But you should take your decision considering other points that I mentioned above as well.
