DPCOE BE Fees 2025

Bachelor of Engineering at DPCOE is the college’s flagship programme, affiliated with Savitribai Phule Pune University and running across six specializations over four years. The annual fee is INR 1,17,000 for every branch, bringing the four-year total to INR 4,68,000. Private autonomous institutes in Maharashtra frequently apply fee differentials between high-demand branches (Computer, IT) and others (Civil, Automobile). DPCOE does not.

Admission runs through DTE Maharashtra’s Centralized Admission Process (CAP) using MHT CET or JEE Main scores. Eligibility requires a pass in 10+2 (or equivalent) with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. There is no separate DPCOE entrance test.

DPCOE BE Lateral Fees 2025

Three years instead of four, and INR 1,83,000 less in total fees. That is the BE Lateral Entry proposition at DPCOE. Diploma holders admitted into the second year complete the programme at INR 95,000 per year, reaching INR 2,85,000 over three years. The lower annual fee for Lateral students (INR 95,000 vs INR 1,17,000 for regular BE) means the cost gap is not just about one fewer year. All six lateral specializations are priced identically.

Lateral Entry admission follows DTE Maharashtra’s CAP rounds, based on polytechnic diploma percentage. Students must hold a diploma in an engineering discipline relevant to the chosen branch.
