AISSMSCOE BE Electrical FAQs
Ques. What are the career prospects for BE Electrical Engineering graduates from AISSMS COE Pune?
Ans. Electrical Engineering graduates from AISSMSCOE find opportunities across a wide range of sectors including power generation and distribution, manufacturing, automation, renewable energy, and defence. Pune's strong industrial base with companies like Emerson, Siemens, Honeywell, Thermax, Cummins, and Bajaj Auto provides excellent internship and placement opportunities for electrical engineers. Graduates can work as electrical design engineers, power systems engineers, automation engineers, or project engineers. Many students also appear for GATE to qualify for PSU recruitment (MSEDCL, MAHADISCOM, NTPC, BHEL, PGCIL) or pursue ME in Power Electronics and Drives at AISSMSCOE itself.
Ques. Is Electrical Engineering at AISSMS COE a good choice compared to Computer or Mechanical Engineering?
Ans. Electrical Engineering is a core engineering branch with diverse career opportunities, though it is less popular than Computer Engineering in terms of campus placement volume. The department at AISSMSCOE is the oldest (est. 1992) and has experienced faculty with strong industry connections. The smaller batch size (60 seats) means more individual attention and better lab access. For students interested in power systems, renewable energy, electric vehicles, or industrial automation, Electrical Engineering is an excellent choice. The growing EV sector and renewable energy push in India are creating new demand for electrical engineers, making this a future-ready branch.
Ques. What is the fee structure for BE Electrical Engineering at AISSMS COE for different categories?
Ans. The FRA-approved fees for 2026-27 vary by category. Open category students pay ₹1,63,000 per year (tuition + development), totalling ₹6,52,000 over 4 years. OBC/EBC/EWS/SEBC male students pay approximately ₹92,131 per year. NT/VJ/SBC/TFWS students and girls under OBC/EBC/EWS/SEBC pay ₹21,261 per year. SC/ST students pay only ₹6,351 per year (first year). Management quota students pay ₹4,89,000 per year. In the first year, additional charges (university fees, eligibility fee, form fee, etc.) bring the total first-year payment for Open category to approximately ₹1,69,351.
Ques. Does AISSMS COE have good lab facilities for Electrical Engineering students?
Ans. Yes, the Electrical Engineering department at AISSMSCOE has well-equipped laboratories covering all major areas including electrical machines, power electronics, control systems, power systems, measurements and instrumentation, and microprocessors. The department has been continuously upgrading its lab infrastructure since its establishment in 1992. Students get hands-on training on modern equipment and simulation tools (MATLAB/Simulink, PSCAD, etc.). The department also has a PG lab for Power Electronics and Drives research, which UG students can access for project work. Regular industrial visits and expert sessions supplement the lab-based learning.
Ques. Can Electrical Engineering students from AISSMS COE get into PSUs like MSEDCL, NTPC, or BHEL?
Ans. Yes, PSU recruitment for Electrical Engineering graduates is primarily through GATE scores. Students who qualify GATE with a good score can apply for PSUs like NTPC, BHEL, PGCIL, ONGC, and state utilities like MSEDCL and MAHADISCOM. The department at AISSMSCOE encourages students to prepare for GATE alongside their regular curriculum. The college's academic rigour in core subjects like Power Systems, Electrical Machines, Control Systems, and Power Electronics provides a strong foundation for GATE preparation. Some PSUs also conduct direct recruitment drives for engineering graduates, and the college's placement cell facilitates such opportunities.
Ques. What is the lateral entry process for BE Electrical Engineering at AISSMS COE?
Ans. Lateral entry (Direct Second Year / DSY) is available for diploma holders in Electrical Engineering or related branches (Electrical and Electronics, Electronics and Power, etc.). Lateral entry admissions are conducted through the Maharashtra CAP process via the DSY round. Eligible candidates must have passed a 3-year diploma in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent) with at least 45% marks (40% for reserved categories). The lateral entry intake is 20% of the approved intake, i.e., approximately 12 seats for Electrical Engineering. Candidates must register on the CAP portal and participate in the DSY allotment process separately from the first-year CAP rounds. Direct admission to second year means students complete the BE degree in 3 years instead of 4.
