==Controversy==
The B.Tech programs in Electronics and Communication, Computer Science and Engineering and Biotechnology were awarded NBA accreditation for a period of three years from 22.5.2019.
In November 2017, Karunya Institute of Technology was ordered to close two off-campus centres in [[Periyanaickenpalayam]] and [[Lakshmi Mills]] which were opened without permission. In addition, a letter from the UGC showed that Karunya has not renewed its deemed-to-be-university status, which expired in 2007.<ref>{{cite news|title=Karunya Univ to shut off-campus centres|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/coimbatore/karunya-univ-to-shut-off-campus-centres/articleshow/61707244.cms|access-date=15 April 2018|work=[[The Times of India]]|date=19 November 2017}}</ref> The institute has agreed to close the centres, leaving 750 students to find other solutions, since the courses they were pursuing (management, science and social science) are not offered at Karunya's main campus. The UGC had also formed a committee of experts to inspect the institution.<ref>{{cite news|title=Karunya Univ to shut its illegal off-campus centres by Dec-end|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/coimbatore/karunya-univ-to-shut-its-illegal-off-campus-centres-by-dec-end/articleshow/62003830.cms|access-date=15 April 2018|work=[[The Times of India]]|date=10 December 2017}}</ref> Acting on the recommendations of said committee, in June 2018 an extension to the deemed-to-be-university status was granted for a period of five years.<ref>{{cite news |title=Extension of deemed university status to Karunya |url=https://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-tamilnadu/extension-of-deemed-university-status-to-karunya/article24188799.ece |accessdate=16 December 2018 |work=[[The Hindu]] |date=18 June 2018 |language=en-IN}}</ref>
