The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Bhubaneswar was established in 2008, and the main campus at Argul, Khordha district was inaugurated by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi on December 24, 2018.
As far as the placement is concerned, the total number of offers has increased from 130 in 2018 to 301 in the last five years’ placement season of IIT Bhubaneswar.
While the number of total offers decreased from 130 in 2018 to 120 in 2019, it only increased after that, that is, 160 in 2020, 214 in 2021 and 301 in 2022.

However, the percentage of placed students has seen a small increase in the past few years. While it was 86 per cent in 2018, it increased to 89.55 in 2019 but declined to 87 in 2020 which might be an effect of the Covid pandemic.
