The Oxford College of Engineering in Bangalore admits students through the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) and counseling, basing seat allocation on KCET rank and category. The admission process requires candidates to submit two Demand Drafts totaling INR 71,500, along with necessary documents. The college offers courses in various fields, including Mechatronics, with admissions through merit and management quotas. The faculty is generally experienced and supportive, though some concerns exist about inconsistent attendance, language barriers, and practical knowledge gaps.
The fee structure varies based on admission criteria: CET exam entrants pay around Rs 59,000 annually, while management students pay higher at Rs 1,42,000. Scholarships significantly reduce fees for SC/ST students to Rs 3,000. Placements are strong for Computer Science, Information Science, and Electronics and Communication, but limited for Mechatronics and Mechanical Engineering. Key recruiters include IBM, Infosys, and Amazon, with the highest package reaching Rs 15 lakh per annum and average packages ranging from Rs 2.5 lakh to Rs 6 lakh.
Placement training begins in the 6th semester, and around 70-85% of students secure placements. The college facilitates access to government scholarships, especially for SC/ST and minority students, and offers loan facilities in partnership with Vijaya Bank. Despite procedural challenges, the college supports students in applying for scholarships through platforms like the National Scholarship Portal. The college maintains a fixed fee structure throughout the academic years, with government fees at Rs 53,460 and additional college fees totaling Rs 78,460 annually for KCET students.
Students are encouraged to seek internships independently, as the college does not provide them directly.
