B.E. Information Science and Engineering is an Under Graduate course with a specialization in the field of computer science and Information Technology related aspects. The course is of four years duration with each year comprising of two semesters each. The minimum eligibility criterion which most of the institutes ask for is a score of at least 55% (relaxable for reserved category candidates) at 10+2 or equivalent level.

The fee for the course varies between INR 75,000 to INR 4, 50,000 in India. The variation in fee is based on the location and nature of university (that is government, state/private/deemed etc.).

 

Admission process for BE in Information Science and Engineering course involves Common Entrance Test (CET) based selection method as well as merit-based selection criteria that is the percentage of marks obtained by the candidate at 10+2 or equivalent level. Colleges/Universities offering admissions through CET mechanism rely on the score of All India level common entrance exams like JEE Main, JEE Advanced, UPSEE etc while some of them go for a separate entrance exam of their own (like BITSAT, LPUNEST etc).

 

The course is an engineering specialization in the domain of Informational Science and Engineering. The motive of the course is to provide students sufficient knowledge and skills that would be required to channelize their learning in a practical sense when they enter the job market.

 

Information Science Engineers have a wide range of opportunities to choose from in terms of job opportunities such as Software engineer, IT Manager, Software Tester, Application developer, Web designer etc. After completion of graduation, one may pursue further studies like M.E. and M.Phil in the said subject or may take up job opportunities associated. The average salary ranges between Rs.14000 to 18000 a month for a fresh graduate in the discipline.

B.E. Information Science and Engineering: Eligibility

Candidate must have passed the 10+2 or equivalent examination from a recognized state or central board with at least 55% (relaxable for reserved category candidates) of the marks with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as the major subjects of study.

 

  1. He/She shall not be having any supplementary or compartment in any of the subject/subjects at 10+2 or equivalent level that is yet to be cleared at the time of taking admissions.
  2. Apart from the above-mentioned eligibility criteria’s various colleges and institutes may have their own additional criteria’s which the students would have to satisfy in order to take admission.
  3. In case of reserved category students, they would have to present their reservation certificates issued by the competent authorities in order to avail the benefits applicable to them.
  4. Most of the Institute give admissions through Common Entrance Test (CET) (like JEE Main, UPSEE). To get admissions in these institutes candidates would have to qualify the respective entrance exam by securing minimum qualifying marks.

 

The eligibility criteria’s mentioned above are common to most of the universities and colleges across the country that are offering this course to the students.

BE (Information Science and Engineering) course admission procedure involves a common entrance test based admission process (as seen across various Universities and colleges in the country) as well as a merit-based selection process (in select few institutes/colleges).

 

  1. Most of the Universities/Colleges conduct a common entrance test for admission into B.E courses (like BITSAT) or take admissions through commonly held entrance exam like JEE Main, UPSEE, JEE Advanced. Hence students would have to make an application for such exams.
  2. Students have to qualify these exams (for which they should be eligible to appear) in order to get admission in the course.
  3. After the conduct of the test, a merit list of finally qualified candidates is prepared and candidates are invited for counseling by the respective university or college.
  4. After counseling final allotment of seats to the candidate takes place and the candidate is asked to deposit the fee for the course and register for the respective academic year.

 

Admission process would more or less be same across all the colleges and universities that are offering this course.

The syllabus of the course is divided into 8 semesters spread over a span of four years with each year comprising of two semesters. The syllabus of the course is divided into various subjects and technical skills that students are taught during the course of their under graduation. The syllabus covers all the aspects related to Information science engineering in a holistic manner so, as to provide a solid base and understanding of the subject to the undergraduate students.
