Top Ten Engineering Colleges
India has many engineering colleges, a fact that is unsurprising since Engineering is one of the preferred career choices for most students. The country offers top notch training in engineering to both undergraduates and post graduates. The top engineering colleges are located not only in the four metropolitan cities, i.e. Delhi, Mumbai, Calcutta and Madras but also in other smaller cities like Kanpur, Roorkee, Vellore, Allahabad, Kharagpur and Guwahati. The colleges are both government owned as well as private. What is remarkable is the quality education and uniformly high standards of these courses.
The admission procedure for the undergraduate courses is centralized. There is a examination that has to be given by all students aspiring to be engineers which is called the AIEEE (The all India Engineering Entrance Examination). In case a student aspires to join the Indian Institute of Technology or IIT, he has to sit for the JEE or Joint Entrance Examination. Both these scores are used to select students.
Though there are engineering colleges that have their own separate entrance examinations, these have, by and large been discontinued in preference to the AIEEE & JEE.
There are various streams within the engineering disciplines that students can pursue after their first year engineering like Biochemical, Electrical, Electronic, Computer, Civil, and even Aviation Engineering. Of course for post-graduation one can specialize further into automotive engineering, nanotechnology and other such specialized subjects. Given below are a list of the top ten engineering colleges in the country, not only for education, but most of them have excellent placement cells that ensure that a graduate from these institutes are recruited by the best companies in the country and get lucrative jobs.
