BE, Delhi College of Engineering

The Delhi College of Engineering (DCE) is one of the oldest technical institutions in India. Established in 1940 as the Delhi Polytechnic, it has been affiliated to the University of Delhi since 1952. DCE offers bachelor of engineering programmes in computer engineering, electronics and communication engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, production and industrial engineering, civil engineering, environmental engineering, polymer science and chemical technology, information technology and biotechnology. It also awards MTech and PhD degrees in engineering branches.

Eligibility

A candidate should have passed Plus Two, securing at least 60 per cent marks in aggregate in physics, chemistry and mathematics and with English as a subject (core or elective).

Candidates who hold a BSc degree (with physics, chemistry and mathematics), either general or with honours, can also apply. Applicants must be at least 17 years of age on or before October 1 of the year of admission. Relaxation in age up to one year only, with the approval of the vice-chancellor, is permissible.

Entrance exam

The admissions to bachelor of engineering courses in the Delhi College of Engineering are made on the basis of a student’s performance in the Common Entrance Examination (CEE) that is held by the University of Delhi in the month of May. Eighty-five per cent seats in DCE are reserved for candidates from the Delhi region. Admission to the remaining 15 per cent seats is on the basis of all-India merit rank in the All-India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) conducted by the CBSE. Examination centres are located in the National Capital Territory of Delhi.

Pattern of exam

The Combined Entrance Examination (CEE) is an objective-type test and has questions from physics, chemistry and mathematics. The question paper is not divided into sections on the basis of subjects and the questions are based on the CBSE syllabus for Class XI and Class XII.

How to prepare

There are many engineering guides available in the market. Practise answering multiple-choice questions from them within a set time-frame for speed and accuracy. You need to have your concepts clear. Since the syllabus is the same, concentrate on clarifying your concepts when you prepare for your board examinations.

Apart from your prescribed text books, you could prepare for the physics questions from books by H.C. Verma, IIT Physics by Tata McGraw Hill and Instructional Physics by MTG publishers. To crack the chemistry questions, go through books by O.P. Agarwal, Ratan and Krishna. Brush up your mathematics from the Khanna guide and Maths by R.D. Sharma.

All India Engineering Entrance Examination - AIEEE

Do you know how many students appeared in 2006 All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) in 2006? Well, about 525,000 to be precise, out of which about 45,000 were called for counseling.

What is AIEEE?

AIEEE is a engineering entrance examination and the students willing to make it to the top notch engineering colleges in indianite is an All India Common Entrance Examination for Admission to undergraduate degree Programs in the field of Engineering, Technology, Pharmacy and Architecture in various colleges in India. The Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India had taken a policy decision to conduct an All India Engineering Entrance Examination in 2002 (AIEEE-2002) with a view to minimize the difficulties being experienced by the candidates and their guardians arising due to a large number of entrance examinations being conducted for admission to undergraduate degree programme in the areas referred above. It is normally conducted in the month of May every year.

AIEEETop Rankers are called for counseling for admission to 19 National Institute of Technology (NIT's). All candidates are eligible either for central counseling or state-specific or category-specific counseling on basis of their All India Ranking (AIR). Counseling for SC/ST candidates and SC/ST physically handicapped candidates is done on the first two days of counseling. Then the physically handicapped in the Open (OP) category are counseled. Candidates are ranked on an All India basis and also according to their state. Thus, they have an All India Rank (AIR) and a state rank. A central analysis structure is offered for filling up the accessible seats all over India. For the convenience of candidates, provision for on-line submission of Application Form has also been made.

Who is Eligible to appear for AIEEE?

In 2006, the minimum academic qualification for admission through AIEEE was a pass in the final examination of 10+2 (Class XII), or its equivalent, referred to as the qualifying examination.

Such candidates were admitted provisionally, subject to the submission of proof of passing in qualifying examination latest by September 15, 2006 at the allotted institution. In case they could not comply with this deadline for providing the proof of passing in the qualifying examination, their admission will stand cancelled.

AIEEE Test Pattern

Students opting for B.Tech are tested in physics, mathematics and chemistry. The test duration is 3 hours with maximum marks 540, with equal weight age of 180 for each of the three subjects. Students opting for B.Arch are tested in mathematics and an aptitude test. Most of the questions are based on fundamentals & their applications. So, the first step is to establish a solid base by mastering the fundamentals. For mastering the fundamentals you have to be focused.

AIEEE Test Preparation

There are many Coaching Institutes in India providing coaching for AIEEE. Brilliant Tutorials, PACE Academy, Career Point, Kota are some of them. There are a few institutes which provide Correspondence Courses also. Online sites offering AIEEE mock test have also been launched recently. AIEEE Test Preparation Question Bank CDs for Practice are also in huge demand.
