Top Engineering Colleges in Gujarat: Seats, Ranking & Admission

Last Updated on October 5, 2023 by Sidharth PS

Have you passed 12th Science stream in Gujarat? Are you interested in pursuing a good Engineering course (B.E./B.Tech.)? If yes, this article will be of help to you. Here, I’ve listed down some of the best Engineering colleges in Gujarat!

Engineering education is a very popular choice among Science stream students. In Gujarat, Engineering programs are available in the following formats –

• Diploma in Engineering programs
• B.E./B.Tech. (Bachelor’s Degree) programs
• M.E./M.Tech. (Master’s Degree) programs
• PG Diploma (Engineering) programs
• Doctoral Degree programs

Among the above-mentioned formats, 12th Science group students have access to both Diploma and Bachelor’s Degree programs. Out of these two types of courses, B.E./B.Tech. programs are the best ( in terms of job prospects and academic value).   Diploma in Engineering programs are 3 years long. B.E./B.Tech. programs are 4 years long.

Most of the B.E./B.Tech. programs are meant for PCM (Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics) group students. Few B.E./B.Tech. programs are open for PCB (Physics, Chemistry, and Biology) group students too!

Let us talk about Engineering colleges now. There are two main types of Engineering colleges in Gujarat. They are –

• Government Engineering Colleges
• SF (Self Financed) Engineering Colleges

Government Colleges are operated and maintained by the State Government. The Government bears most of the expenses. Thus, it is able to provide subsidized education to its students!

SF Colleges, on the other hand, are managed and maintained by Private Boards and Trusts. Due to this factor, they charge relatively higher fees than their Public sector counterparts.

Reputed Engineering Colleges follow merit merit-based admission process. They allot seats to deserving candidates, who have scored well in relevant entrance exams! Some SF Colleges are known to carry out direct as well as donation-based admission processes.

Come, let us check out the list of top 10 engineering colleges in Gujarat, India. In the next section, you will find the following details – names of top 10 engineering colleges, their address, affiliation details, and number of seats available in each college.
