Can I survive in the NITIE (PGDIE) as a fresher without any knowledge about industrial engineering?

Yes, you can make it through NITIE as a fresher without any knowledge regarding Industrial Engineering. It isn’t rocket science. A huge chunk of the PGDIE batch is freshers. 

Here, technical knowledge takes a back seat. To do well in B-Schools, you have to be street-smart. You will be expected to apply common sense to tackle real-world problems.

Now once in a while, you may encounter a few subjects that have certain topics that may appear a little unfamiliar, however, attending classes and skimming through notes/ textbooks once or twice should familiarize you with the underlying concepts. The course is designed that way. You can also consult your professors and your peers to clear any doubts that you have.

You will definitely leave NITIE with some technical knowledge. From the first day, you will learn IE.
