AISSMSCOE BE Robotics & Automation FAQs
Ques. Is Robotics and Automation a good branch at AISSMS COE Pune, and what kind of companies hire from this department?
Ans. Robotics and Automation is a relatively newer branch at AISSMS COE but is gaining recognition given Pune's strong manufacturing base. Companies in the automation, automotive, and industrial sectors - such as Tata Motors, Bajaj Auto, Cummins, Bosch, and various automation system integrators in the Pune-Chakan-Pimpri-Chinchwad belt - are potential recruiters. However, students should note that the branch is still building its placement track record compared to more established branches like Computer Engineering or E&TC. Developing skills in PLC programming, robotics simulation tools (like ROS), and industrial automation software significantly improves placement prospects.
Ques. What is the difference between CAP round fees and institute-level fees for Robotics and Automation at AISSMS COE?
Ans. CAP round fees (for Open Maharashtra category) are approximately Rs. 1,69,351 per year, totalling around Rs. 6,77,404 for 4 years. Institute-level fees (management/NRI quota) are Rs. 4,91,986 per year, totalling approximately Rs. 19,67,944 for 4 years. The significant difference arises because CAP round fees are regulated by the Fees Regulating Authority (FRA) of Maharashtra, while institute-level fees are higher as they are set by the college for management quota seats. Reserved category students under CAP pay substantially lower fees due to government fee waivers.
Ques. Is there a hostel facility at AISSMS COE for Robotics and Automation students?
Ans. AISSMS COE does not have an on-campus hostel facility. Students from outside Pune need to arrange private accommodation near the college, which is located on Kennedy Road, Shivajinagar - a central and well-connected area of Pune. Paying guest (PG) accommodations and private hostels are widely available in the Shivajinagar, Deccan, and FC Road areas, typically ranging from Rs. 6,000 to Rs. 15,000 per month depending on amenities. Students are advised to explore accommodation options before joining.
Ques. What is the MHT-CET percentile required to get Robotics and Automation at AISSMS COE?
Ans. Based on past trends (2024-25), the MHT-CET percentile required for Robotics and Automation at AISSMS COE through CAP rounds has generally been in the range of 75-88 percentile for Open category candidates. The branch tends to have lower cutoffs compared to Computer Engineering or AI/ML at the same college. Exact cutoffs vary each year based on the number of applicants and seat availability. Candidates are advised to check the official DTE Maharashtra CAP allotment lists for the most accurate and updated cutoff data.
Ques. Can I get admission to BE Robotics and Automation at AISSMS COE through JEE Main?
Ans. Yes, All India Candidature candidates can use their JEE Main 2026 score for admission to AISSMS COE through the Maharashtra CAP process. For All India seats, preference is given to JEE Main scores over MHT-CET scores. However, the number of All India seats is limited (typically 15% of total intake). Maharashtra State Candidature candidates must mandatorily appear for MHT-CET 2026. Management quota seats can be filled directly by the college without requiring MHT-CET or JEE Main scores, subject to basic eligibility criteria.
Ques. What labs and practical facilities are available for Robotics and Automation students at AISSMS COE?
Ans. The Robotics and Automation department at AISSMS COE has dedicated laboratories for robotics, automation, embedded systems, and computer vision. The labs are equipped with industrial-grade robotic arms, PLC/SCADA systems, microcontrollers, and simulation software. The college also has a central computing facility and library. Students have noted that while the labs are functional and reasonably equipped, the practical exposure depends significantly on individual initiative - participating in technical events, industry visits, and internships is strongly recommended to supplement classroom learning.
