Engineering Seats up by 10,000 this Year
Total number of Seats crosses a lakh
Chennai: The single window system of counseling may cant pool of seats in engineering colleges, but that has not stopped engineering colleges in the State from increasing seat intake by almost 10,000 numbers this year.
In a move that has caused surprise among academic circles, the institutions have scaled their intake after counseling closed, with the AICTE granting permission for new courses and more seats in existing courses.
A total of 10,011 seats have been added in B.E. and B.Tech courses and 813 seats in M.E. & M.Tech courses. Also, there has been an additional intake of 1,500 seats in M.B.A programmes and 780 seats in MCA courses. Most of the new seats are in branches such as aeronautical engineering and civil engineering.
