The College of Engineering Pune (COEP) conducts admissions through the Maharashtra State Education Board's Common Entrance Test (CET), with a merit-based centralized process that does not involve group discussions or interviews. The college's faculty quality varies, with some excelling in teaching, but others perceived as biased. COEP offers scholarships and freeships for students in financial need, with the current annual fee set at 90,000 Rupees, inclusive of various additional charges.
Fees are subject to a 5-10% annual increase, but remain competitive compared to other engineering colleges. The college boasts a strong placement record, with 90% of the batch typically securing placements. Notable recruiters include Tata Motors, Infosys, and L&T, with the highest salary package reaching 10 LPA and an average of 4.5 LPA. Internship opportunities are ample, notably through a mandatory six-month internship in the 5th and 8th semesters for sandwich courses, providing hands-on experience with companies like Tata Motors.
As a government-run institution, COEP supports students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, enhancing accessibility through state and central government scholarships.
