Top 100 Engineering Colleges In India - 2015

Welcome to Silicon India's Top 100 Engineering Colleges In India - 2015.
It is true that, majority of Indian educational institutions have miserably failed to achieve their spots in global rankings. However, it does not mean the country’s educational establishments are not capable of providing quality education. Arguably, there exist a disparity in the quality constraints of global ranking agencies and the focus of Indian educators as well as Indian student’s mindset. While, research and academic excellence plays important role for most of the global ranking agencies to evaluate universities across the globe, Indian institutes are on the grounds of making students job ready. Placements hence become a necessary closure of most of the Indian Engineering Colleges. That is the reason why 800 organizations hire more than 100,000 graduates from 3500+ colleges in India each year through campus hiring.
Campus hiring not only brings fresh talent to the company, but also helps build a brand name among the top colleges in the country. However, with new technology institutes mushrooming in every nook and corner of the country, a dilemma about the quality of education arises for both IT organizations who are looking for good engineers and students who want to pursue a career in this industry. We at siliconindia with our 17 years of media expertise and exposure to IT and related technology space, understand that despite the infrastructure, faculty, fee structure and other criteria, the sole parameter of judging a college's quality is the performance of its graduates in the industry, which in turn can be measured by the pay package commanded by them. Thus, this list is entirely based on a single parameter - the placement performance in terms of average salary the students get. With placements and average packages in focus,this issue of siliconindia Education focuses on enlisting colleges best known for their dynamic placements.
Methodology
In the sixth edition of siliconindia Engineering College Survey, to rank the best engineering colleges and MCA Colleges, a perceptual study was conducted among HR managers, Recruitment firms and job boards. The companies/institutes were chosen carefully to ensure that the HR managers/professionals interviewed were involved with recruitment and had a fair idea about the market.After an exhaustive research and analysis, we finally came up with a list of Top 100 Engineering Institutes (Govt/Private) in three streams - Computer Science, Electronics and Communication and Mechanical Engineering. Apart from this, we have formed a list of Top 10 Institutes across India in each zone, Top Emerging Colleges and Top Private Universities. This report also displays Top 50 MCA Colleges in India & Zone Wise listing and Best 10 M. Tech Colleges. We have also tried to list best 20 colleges from Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan to give a better insight to the readers.
We hope this initiative proves to a beneficial one for you!
