Come, let us take a close look at the admission process now. Here is everything you need to know about it –

Polytechnic Admission Karnataka 2022

Government polytechnic institutes rely on merit based admission process. In other words, if you want to secure admission into a government polytechnic institute, you must crack relevant merit based selection process.

What is merit based admission process all about, some of you may ask. Under merit based admission process, seats are distributed among deserving and eligible candidates on the basis of their position/rank in a merit list. You may also check – Engineering colleges in Karnataka.

The merit list is prepared on the basis of candidates’ performance in relevant entrance examination/selection test/interview and/or their performance in relevant board examination. Based on the merit list, seats are distributed among deserving and eligible candidates.

Polytechnic courses

Polytechnic institutes in Karnataka are known to offer different types of diploma programs. Based on the course content, these programs can be broadly classified into two types –

• Technical (engineering) programs
• Non-technical programs

Technical programs are commonly known as Diploma in Engineering programs. For example – Diploma in Mechanical Engineering, Diploma in Civil Engineering, Diploma in Electrical Engineering, Diploma in IC Engineering etc.

An engineering diploma program usually revolves around a technical subject (like mechanical, civil, electrical, CSE etc). Diploma in Engineering program is 3 years long.

A non-technical diploma program deals with non-technical subjects such as – office practice, beauty care, beauty culture, humanities, commercial practice etc.
