BNM Institute of Technology

BNM Institute of Technology, established in 2001 in the Banashankari area of southern Bengaluru, is a mid-sized private engineering college that has built a steady local reputation, holding an A grade from NAAC and AICTE approval. Its computer science and information science branches are the main draws, consistent with the city's software economy, and its location inside Bengaluru proper — rather than on a distant highway campus — keeps students connected to the city's internship, meetup and recruitment circuits. Living costs are metropolitan, but day scholars from the city form a large share of the intake. The college suits Karnataka students entering through the state's engineering counselling who want a decent in-city Bengaluru engineering college, especially for software-oriented branches, without the scale of the giant campuses.
