It is better to go for B.Tech at Tezpur University (TU) than Assam Engineering College (AEC). Following are the reasons for the same:

  • TU has great faculty and infrastructure, and you will get a lot of exposure. 
  • The only drawback is the lack of placements. Being a new institution very few companies visit the college.
  • AEC on the other hand, is very old, and has a strong alumni network. 
  • Placement is better at AEC compared to TU, but still it keeps fluctuating which makes students unsure.
Categories B.Tech at AEC B.Tech at TU
Course Fee INR 44,000 1.76 lakh
Placement Percentage 80% 50%
Highest CTC 17 LPA 14 LPA
Average CTC 6 LPA 3.5 LPA
Recruiting Companies Capgemini, IBM, Wipro, Reliance, etc. SAP Labs, Amazon, Intel, Dabur, etc.

If your aim is to get a job right after your graduation, then you should join AEC. But if you are interested more in research and exposure and want to opt for higher studies, TU will be a better option.

CIT, Kokrajhar, and Assam Engineering College are reputed engineering colleges in north-east India. CIT Kokrajhar offers better infrastructure, faculties, and facilities compared to Assam Engineering College as it is a central university and AEC is a state-funded University of Assam. However, AEC has a better placement record. Some students from CIT-K also opt for off-campus placements.

Given below is a comparison between the placement at the two institutions depending on past placement records.

Opt for Sikkim Manipal University. It offers better placements compared to Assam Engineering College. During SMIT placements 2022, the highest CTC offered was INR 29.25 LPA. Students received more than 507 job offers. Wipro, Commvault, and DXC Technologies are some of the major recruiters to take part in the placements. SMIT is especially good for branches like CSE, EEE, and ECE.

No, you cannot transfer from CIT Kokrajhar to Assam Engineering College. A distant relative of mine studied at Assam Engineering college and found out that there is a huge difference in both the colleges. 

CIT Kokrajhar is deemed to be a university and is funded centrally by MHRD. On the other hand, Assam Engineering College is a state-level college. Further, the GPA score fetched, no matter how good, will not be able to aid you in this case. 

Below mentioned is a comparison of these two universities on various important factors:

JLEE, CEE, and GATE

  • Assam Engineering College is a state-level university. Admissions in B.E/B.Tech is done on the basis of CEE exams.
  • As of now, there is no provision to transfer into Assam Engineering College from CIT Kokrajhar after completion of the first year.
  • Also, the GPA score will not help in any way if a student wishes to transfer from CIT Kokrajhar to Assam Engineering College.

Here is some placement information about CIT that might help:

  • Be prepared to visit companies the college is going to refer. Chances of on-campus placements are very low. 
  • Average CTC and average placements keep fluctuating. Its is recommended not to assume anything by going through past year records
  • You usually become eligible for placements from the 6th Semester. 

The options available for you, as of now, would be, either to continue at CIT Kokrajhar and pursue a higher level course from another university post-completion. If you are pursuing a diploma course, there is an option to join Assam Engineering College through lateral entry after they complete their respective diploma course. You can opt for another option which is to appear for the entrance exams accepted by the Assam Engineering College.

Getting a seat in CSE at Assam Engineering College isn’t too difficult. You will need a score of around 150+ in CEE to get CSE in AEC. CEE is easier compared to national-level examinations like JEE. Go through the previous years' question papers to get an idea about the question paper pattern.

In my opinion, the likelihood of your profile getting into Assam Engineering College highly depends on which category you belong to. Primarily, the chances of students from the reserved categories have better chances of getting in with a low score as compared to those coming from general categories. 

The following table shows the expected cut off of Assam CEE as per the category:

Category

Expected Cut off 2020

General

72-76

OBC/MOBC

77-70

SC

61-57

ST

41-40

For the year 2016, the cutoff for the general category at AEC, Guwahati is 130, whereas that for OBC and SC category students was 99 and 93 respectively. The grades may fluctuate on the higher side generally. Other than this, there are a number of factors that affect the cut-off. This includes:

  • The difficulty level of the exam
  • The reputation of the college or institute you are applying to.
  • Cut off from previous years
  • Course or stream of engineering that you may choose

Now, seeing that you have scored 134 and if you are from the general category, there is very little chance or almost no chance of you getting into AEC. Your saving grace could be if you are from one of the reserved categories like OBC, SC, or ST. Here, you have a better chance to secure admission but there is no guarantee. Estimating your rank from this information, you might be in 1500+. 

It is advisable to consider backup colleges as well. You can look at JIST, Bineshwar Brahma for mechanical, civil, or electrical engineering. The opportunities for other branches are not that great in Assam. However, if you are passionate enough about electronics and computer science, definitely go ahead. You will excel.
