Students across these emerging markets will now have access to some of these top business schools, which are globally accredited, have superior infrastructure, faculty and curriculum.

AICTE to Shut 800 Engineering Colleges

AICTE to Shut 800 Engineering Colleges

The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) wants to close down about 800 engineering colleges across India as there are no takers for their seats, and admissions are plunging in these institutions every year.

There are approximately 150 colleges which are closed down voluntarily every year due to stricter AICTE rules. According to a rule of the council, colleges that lack proper infrastructure and report less than 30% admissions for five consecutive years will have to be shut down

A total of 65 engineering colleges will be shut down in 2017. AICTE has released a list of 65 institutes which cannot admit students in first year engineering programme. However, the existing students will continue.

Some colleges have been asked to submit a report on their choice of closing down or merging with another college as the change will be effective from 2018-19 academic year.
