IIEST Shibpur Course Admission 2026: Dates, Fees, Eligibility, Application Process, Selection Criteria

The Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) in Aerospace Engineering at the Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology (IIEST), Shibpur, primarily admits students through the JEE Mains examination. Candidates must have passed their Class 12 with at least 75% marks in subjects including Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics to be eligible. The admission process follows the JEE Mains rank, requiring ranks of around 55,000 for general admission. The cutoff for Computer Science Engineering is stricter, needing a rank under 20,000.

After qualifying JEE Mains, aspirants participate in the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) and Central Seat Allocation Board (CSAB) counselling rounds. The application fee varies by category, with general male applicants paying INR 1,000. Applicants benefit significantly from reservation policies; SC/ST candidates have a higher likelihood of securing a seat compared to OBC and general candidates. The admission procedure includes fee payments during JoSAA and CSAB counselling, and the total initial fees can sum up to about INR 80,000.

As part of the admission requirements, candidates are expected to provide extensive documentation for verification during physical reporting at the campus. With two sessions for JEE Mains in a year, application forms and timelines are aligned with the National Testing Agency (NTA) schedule. The college does not offer direct or management quota admissions, ensuring a fair and transparent process based purely on merit.
