Placements 2023-24
| Metric | Data |
|---|---|
| Highest Package | Rs 13 LPA (Infosys, 2023) |

BGSIT's placement activity runs through VTU Mandya zone pooled drives and direct on-campus recruitment. The Bangalore-Mysuru Expressway makes day trips to Mysuru for off-campus drives practical. CSE and ISE graduates access Mysuru's growing IT sector — KEONICS IT Park, Infosys Mysuru campus, and Dell Mysuru are major employers within 55 km.
Bangalore-Mysuru Expressway Advantage
B.G. Nagara's NH-75 position changed significantly in 2023 when the expressway opened, reducing Bangalore-Mandya travel to under 60 minutes. This triggered significant real estate and commercial development in the corridor, creating direct Civil Engineering employment in ongoing township and infrastructure projects. Mandya's sugarcane economy and the Mysore Sugar Company (MYSUGAR) provide Mechanical Engineering students with agro-processing industry exposure during studies.

Who Should Apply to BGSIT
BGSIT is the best-accredited private engineering option in Mandya district — NAAC A+ puts it above most NAAC A and all NAAC B+ colleges in the region. Students from Mandya, Mysuru and Hassan districts in the 48,000–80,000 GM KCET range who want quality engineering education without relocating to Bangalore should consider BGSIT. Expressway connectivity makes Bangalore commuting practical for internships and off-campus drives.
Who Should Look Elsewhere
Students whose KCET rank reaches GEC Mandya (government, low fees, tighter cutoffs) should take that first. PES College of Engineering Mandya (est. 1962, established reputation) is another strong within-district alternative. Students specifically targeting Bangalore's top IT companies should weigh whether a Bangalore-based college justifies the relocation cost.
