List of top 100 engineering colleges in India
Top 100 engineering colleges: Engineering is the most critical sectors for the society and one of the most sought after courses. Innovation is directly linked to engineering; we get a sustainable environment with the help of engineering.
Every year in India, more than lakhs of students appear for different engineering entrance exams such as JEE Main (previously known as AIEEE), JEE Advanced (formerly known as IIT JEE), BITSAT, and other state-level engineering entrance exams.
With a very low student intake, these engineering exams become very important; the only handful of students crack these prominent engineering exams.
An engineering student must understand the importance of the entrance exam and know about the thousands of colleges offering engineering courses.
Pursuing engineering from the best colleges should always be your aim. Top 100 engineering colleges in India are the ones that you can look out for.
Additionally, the probability of getting excellent placement is higher in these colleges.
These colleges not only have better infrastructure, and faculty but also have excellent placement opportunities.
