Engineering in India

Think Engineering, Join SP Classes

To Pursue Engineering Education in India the minimum Qualification is 12th Passed.

Students have to prepare for Entrance exam during 11th and 12th class and then take up state and national level entrance exams.
The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) and National Institutes of Technology (NITs) are considered to be the best engineering Colleges in the country and thus the graduates from IITs and NITs earn much more as compared to the graduates of other engineering institutes.Engineers from IITs and NITs are considered technically better skilled and more innovative.

Apart from these, there are another almost

  • 3000 engineering colleges in India offering undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral courses in Engineering.
  • 330 of these are Government engineering Colleges
  • Almost 2700 are private engineering colleges.

A lot of them are old and quiet acclaimed. Amongst the top Private engineering colleges in India are 

  • BITS Pillani
  • Vellore institute of Technology (VIT),
  • Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT)
  • Thapar University at Patiala 
  • PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore, and many others.

Undergraduate courses for engineering are Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) and Bachelor of Engineering (BE).

  • The Course duration normally completed in 8semesters of six months across 4 years of total durtion.
  • One has to pass all the exams before degree is conferred.
  • Placements are usually conducted in the fourth year of the course.

The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) were setup in early fifties to facilitate engineering and technical higher education in India after independence and are twenty three in number today. They have been declared as Institutes of National Importance by the Parliament of India.
Each IIT is an autonomous university, governed by a common IIT Council, which oversees their administration. There is a common Admission process for IIT for undergraduate admissions through and Entranc Exam named JEE Advaced which caters to approx. 12000 seats an year.
