The admission process at SSBT COET involves filling out the college name in the option form, selection through the CAP round, and visiting the college to complete admission formalities. Admission is primarily through the MHT-CET exam, with some students admitted via JEE scores and management quota. The Mechanical Engineering department boasts experienced faculty, though some concerns exist about teaching quality due to internal politics and low salaries. Fees vary by category: Open category pays approximately Rs 80,000, OBC around Rs 45,000, and Backward category as low as Rs 8,000.
The Tuition Fee Waiver Scheme (TFWS) is available for 6 students per branch at Rs 8,500, and hostel fees are capped at Rs 60,000. Fees can be paid in installments, with some students paying Rs 62,000 per year. Scholarships through Mahadbt and various government programs are available, covering a significant portion of fees for eligible students. Placement opportunities are strong for IT and Computer Science, with about 250 students placed last year, mainly in these branches.
However, Mechanical Engineering placements are weaker, with limited job prospects and salaries. The overall placement rate is about 20% annually, with around 20 companies visiting. While some students secure internships with companies like Sunrise Ltd. and Navkar Ford, many rely on their efforts for placements. Scholarships cover 50% of fees for OBC & EBC students, and over 80% for SC, ST, and NT students. Talented TFWS students have over 90% of fees covered.
Despite feasible fees, concerns about teaching quality and placement assistance make the degree seem expensive to some students.
