All About Engineering


In this era of perfection, everything needs to be perfectly organised, designed and hence presented in a well thought-out manner. Designing of a pencil to the formation of a computer system, requires lot of mind boggling, intelligence and hard work. Lot of technicalities are involved in the structurisation of any mechanical, chemical, technical or mathematical developments. The fields related to these, in which the designing, formation and construction of all mechanical or technological devices are done is called engineering. Engineering is a very vast field and students opt for different engineering fields according to their interests. Also, the demand for engineers has increased due to the developments in the field of technology.

The various branches of Engineering are:

v     Aerospace Engineering

v     Chemical Engineering

v     Civil Engineering

v     Electrical Engineering

v     Mechanical Engineering

v     Computer and software Engineering

v     Bio- chemical Engineering

A student must have subjects like physics, chemistry, and mathematics in his senior secondary examination to pursue engineering as his career. There are different colleges and institutes providing degrees in engineering. Engineers play a key role in the country’s development as whole. Scientists, computer experts, forensic engineers, software applications, etc are few of the fields contributing in the country’s growth. The top ten engineering colleges which has produced brilliants in the field are:

Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur
Indian Institute of Technology, Chennai
Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee
Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi
Indian Institute of Technology, Mumbai
Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati
Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur
IIIT Allahabad
College of Engineering, Chennai
National Institute of Technology, Tamil Nadu

The entrance to an engineering college is a lengthy process, involving a series of examinations. Every college has its own entrance exam, on the basis of the reputation that institute carries and the seats availability. A minimum percentage is required to sit in the entrance exams of various colleges, which is decided by the college itself, after which a written test is taken, assessing the students on the subjects like Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and English. After clearing the written test, the student appears for the group discussion in which the confidence, general knowledge and communication skills are tested, clearing which makes the student eligible for the interview round, which is very crucial and student’s last step towards the achievement of his goal i.e. admission in a reputed engineering college.

The famous engineering entrance exams are:

ITT JEE- IIT Joint Entrance Exam
AIEEE- All India Engineering Entrance Examination
VITEEE
ENET- ESPI National Admission Test
WBJEE- West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination
DCE- Delhi College of Engineering
Manipal Institute of Technology Engineering Examination
Bharath University Engineering Entrance Exam
MHCET- Maharashtra Common Entrance Test
SRM Engineering Entrance Examination
ICFAI Institute of Science and Technology Exam
Kerela Medical and Engineering Entrance Exam
IIST- Indian Institute of Space and Technology
BITSAT- Birla Institute of Science and Technology

Preparation for these exams is also important, as these exams decide the fate of the students as their admission in the colleges are dependents on the marks obtained in these entrance tests. Many students also take classes for the preparation of these exams, very much after opting for engineering as their senior secondary subject. The institute chosen should satisfy the educational standards of the institute and help in enhancing the confidence, speed and many other skills of the student. Time management is an important factor, which helps the student in scoring more and keeping a track on all the subjects. It helps you to required attention to respective subjects, thereby helping in a speedy and a balanced preparation. Also, taking mock test papers helps the student in practising the exam tests and increasing their grip even over the tricky questions.
