The admission process of Rajasthan Technical University will
commence from June 10. The session is likely from August 1. RTU offers courses in to begin 26 branches.
Rajasthan Technical University was setup in 2006 by Govt. of
Rajasthan to enhance technical education in Rajasthan.
Rajasthan Technical
University offers degree courses in Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech), Master of
technology (M.Tech), Master of Business Administration (MBA), Master of
Computer Applications (MCA) and Bachelor of Hotel management and Catering
Technology (BHMCT).
The university currently affiliates about 122 Engineering
Colleges, 03 B.Arch., 38 MCA colleges, 130 MBA colleges, 37 M.Tech colleges and
02 Hotel management and Catering Institutes.
More than 1 lakh students study in the various institutes
affiliated to the university. For all academic programs of Rajasthan Technical
university the medium of instructions and examinations is English.
RTU offers courses in 26 branches. Leading the pack is
electronics and communication (EC) which continues to be the most sought-after
course among aspiring engineers with a maximum of 14,500 seats. Computer
science, another favourite, is lagging behind with 11,453 seats.
Earlier given a cold shoulder by meritorious students, the
core branches have witnessed a gradual rise in popularity due to opening up of
various attractive career options.
In over 150 engineering colleges under the RTU, 61,000 seats
are up for grabs. Of these colleges, 27 are evening colleges that can
accommodate 12% of the total student strength at the varsity.
Like previous years, the biggest challenge for the
university remains to get maximum seats filled when a sizeable number of bright
students opt to migrate to Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh for engineering
studies.
Many colleges are busy refurbishing the infrastructure to
make their campus more attractive while others are busy recruiting faculty.
Since RTU has been monitoring the status of teachers in each college,
authorities are trying hard to meet the faculty standards before the
commencement of the academic session.
Aparna Shekawat, spokesperson of IIMET (International
Institute of Management, Enginering & Technology) said, "We are
organizing free counselling for students in our campus to suggest students on
most suitable branches for them."
A section of students are also eyeing diploma certificate
courses in different branches of engineering for an early placement.
These diploma programmes have become popular among students
as they help youngsters start early in their career, get attractive pay
packages besides being more industry oriented.
