What UMIT does

UMIT (Usha Mittal Institute of Technology) is a women's engineering college established in 1996-97 under SNDT Women's University in Mumbai, India. It delivers undergraduate (B.Tech), postgraduate (M.Tech), and doctoral (PhD) programs across six engineering disciplines: Computer Engineering, Computer Science and Technology, Information Technology, Electronics and Communication, Data Science, and Artificial Intelligence. The institution holds continuous AICTE approvals (2021-22 through 2025-26) and operates a Training & Placement Cell established in 2000-2001 that has facilitated campus recruitment with enterprise partners including Accenture, TCS, Infosys, JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank, Oracle, Microsoft, and Barclays.

Revenue is generated through tuition and academic fees, processed via dedicated SNDT Unisuite payment portals segmented by Reserved Category and OBC/Unreserved Category student tiers on an annual billing cadence. Specific fee amounts are not publicly disclosed. The institute supplements tuition with government-funded research grants (DST Rs 18 Lakhs, ISRO Rs 26.10 Lakhs, Vishweswaraya Ph.D Rs 69 Lakhs) and maintains an ecosystem of student technical chapters (IEEE, ACM—Mumbai's first chapter since 1999—CSI, GDSC, GeekforGeeks), an Entrepreneurship Cell, an NSS unit, an alumni association (UA^2), and an active events calendar including the Arcane Illusions cultural festival and XUBERANCE sports festival. Its digital infrastructure integrates SWAYAM, NPTEL, and the National Digital Library.

The institution has 1,001–5,000 employees (predominantly faculty and administrative staff) and is a constituent of the public SNDT Women's University system, meaning ownership is institutional and public with no venture capital or private equity involvement. Near-term placement throughput declined from 203 students placed (2023-24) to 119 (2024-25 partial), while the highest CTC rose modestly from 32.76 LPA to 36 LPA, indicating mixed demand signals from the recruiter side.
