Bachelor of Engineering

• Candidates must have passed Class 12th (10+2) from a recognized board with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM) as core subjects.
• Students must have secured a minimum of 50–60% aggregate marks (varies by college; 75% required for IITs).
• Some specializations may also consider Biology or Computer Science.
• First, students must appear for national, state, or university-level engineering entrance tests. Popular exams include JEE Main / JEE Advanced, MHT CET, KCET, TS EAMCET, WBJEE, BITSAT, SRMJEEE, VITEEE, and others.
• Candidates must apply online through the official portals of the desired colleges or exam authorities.
• Then, upload academic documents, entrance exam scores, photographs, and other required credentials.
• Next, pay the application fee within the deadline.
• Qualified candidates are invited to participate in centralized counselling sessions such as JoSAA (for IITs/NITs), COMEDK, DTE Counselling, or equivalent state-level processes.
• Seats are allotted based on entrance rank, merit, and preferences of colleges and branches.
• Some institutes may also conduct Group Discussions (GD) and Personal Interviews (PI) as part of their selection process.
• Once a seat is allotted, students must confirm their admission by:
  • Paying the required tuition and admission fees
  • Submitting original documents for verification
  • Upon successful verification, the candidate is officially enrolled in the BE program.

Some private universities may assess candidates through interviews to evaluate communication skills, career goals, and motivation. Seats are allocated in accordance with government-mandated reservations for SC, ST, OBC, EWS, and PwD categories.

• Theoretical Foundation: The BE curriculum has a strong emphasis on core engineering principles and scientific concepts for students who wish to build deep subject matter expertise. This theoretical grounding is particularly valuable for careers in research, teaching, and further academic studies.
• Career Opportunities: A BE degree opens doors to multiple career paths. Candidates can work in design, development, and testing roles in engineering projects, government and private sector enterprises, emerging areas like AI, robotics, and sustainable technologies. Alternatively, they can pursue higher education like MTech, MBA, or MS abroad, based on their interests.
• High Demand Across Industries: Engineers are in demand across industries such as Information Technology, Automotive & Manufacturing, Construction & Infrastructure, Electronics & Communication, Aerospace & Defense.
• Competitive Salary Packages: BE graduates enjoy strong starting salaries, especially in high-demand domains like Software Engineering, Automation & Process Engineering, Data Science, Electronics and Core Engineering. Companies like Tata Motors, Accenture, Mahindra, HCL, and L&T regularly hire BE graduates, offering competitive packages with ample growth potential.
• Skill-Oriented & Industry-Relevant Training: The course structure has theoretical knowledge with hands-on practical exposure, ensuring students are job-ready from day one. BE programs often include:Industry internships, Project work, Lab-based learning, Workshops and certifications.

According to industry reports, India’s engineering sector has over 27% of the total factories in the industrial segment. Additionally, major investments like the Indian government’s $1.5 trillion infrastructure plan are fueling job creation in engineering fields.
