Engineering, Medicine, Research, and Paramedical courses, are some professional options that come to the minds of any Science student soon after they clear their 12th. In India and abroad these are some most preferred career options that provide great value in society with a lucrative future. Engineering is the best option for any non-medical aspirant with assured jobs in some of the top MNCs around the globe. The most popular engineering specializations are mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science engineering, aerospace engineering, communication engineering, and aerospace engineering in India.
Reason to Choose Engineering Colleges other than IITs, and NITs
Multiple engineering colleges are offering versatile specializations in engineering for aspiring engineers.
- One of the key factors to look at selecting an engineering college is the placement facilities offered. Students should make sure that the college has an active placement cell as it will be helpful for an engineering graduate to secure a job through campus placements and not to worry about job competition later on.
- IITs and NITs are undoubtedly the finest institutes in India for engineering courses. However, those who couldn’t obtain good cut-off marks in JEE entrance exams find it extremely difficult to get admission to any of the IITs or NITs. Several universities/ colleges across the nation offer numerous engineering courses, world-class infrastructure, talented faculty, top-notch education, and many more amenities that make these institutes/colleges equally better than IITs/ NITs.
Eligibility Criteria to Get Admission to Best Engineering Colleges other than IITs and NITs
- Students with a science background, with Physics, Math, and Chemistry, as core subjects in 10+2 classes.
- A minimum aggregate of 75% marks in the 10+2 or an equivalent PUC.
- A valid JEE Main scorecard is required and candidates with a good score will be shortlisted foremost during the first round of the counseling process.
