The area has seen significant residential and commercial development driven by Bangalore's expanding tech sector. BMTC bus connectivity is available from Rajajinagar, Yeshwantpur and Jalahalli. Students from North Bangalore localities including Chikkabanavara, Jalahalli and Peenya find SKIT conveniently accessible.

The proximity to Peenya Industrial Area — one of Asia's largest industrial estates — provides relevant industry exposure for Mechanical and Industrial Engineering students through plant visits, internship programmes and industry lectures.
