ANNA UNIVERSITY ADMISSIONS IN ENGINEERING COLLEGES IN TAMIL NADU


BY V.M. KHALEELUR RAHMAN

The Anna University, Chennai which is the authority for admitting students in the Anna University and its constituent colleges, Government Engineering Colleges, Government Aided Engineering Colleges and Anna University affiliated Private Engineering Colleges has started issuing application forms from 3rd May 2010.

The details are as follows:

ISSUE OF APPLICATION FORMS ……………………………….FROM 3RD MAY TO 29TH MAY 2010

LAST DATE FOR SUBMITTING FILLED IN APPLICATIONS………………………….31ST MAY 2010

DATE OF ALLOTMENT OF RANDOM NUMBERS TO APPLICANTS……………15TH JUNE 2010

DATE OF RELEASE OF RANK LIST ……………………………………………………………18TH JUNE 2010

COUNSELLING PERIOD …………………………………………... FROM 26TH JUNE TO 25TH JULY 2010

The Anna University which will conduct the single window counselling for admissions as per the above schedule has printed more than 1.75 lakh application forms and made arrangements for issuing them to applicants in about 60 centres including its campus at Guindy in Chennai. There are many counters for sale of application forms here from 10.00 am to 5.00 pm on all days except Sundays and other holidays if any till 29th May 2010.

The indications are that even this year as in the past years applicants will like to choose the colleges where good infrastructure, experienced faculty and campus recruitments by big companies are available. Muslim students will also be as enthusiastic as others in grabbing the best possible colleges for them.

It is clear beyond any doubt that Muslims in Tamil Nadu have started getting higher education now more than ever before. The 3.5% reservation given for the minorities by the Tamil Nadu government is also giving them an opportunity to get more seats in engineering, medical and other courses. According to many reliable reports there is an increase in the number of Muslim students in all these courses. B S Abdur Rahman Crescent Engineering College, Mohamed Sathak Engineering College, Dhaanish Ahmed College of Engineering, C. Abdul Hakeem College of Engineering and Technology and Noorul Islam College of Engineering are in the list of the Engineering Colleges affiliated to the Anna University whose students secured University Ranks in 2009. Some of the Muslim students who studied in some other engineering colleges also secured University Ranks last year.

It has to be noted that there are 456 Engineering Colleges including 6 government, 3 government aided and 16 Anna University constituent ones in Tamil Nadu providing 1,72,500 seats for study of different engineering courses. Last year only about 1,20,100 seats could be filled in and 52,400 seats remained without takers. The main reason for this is that students are very particular in getting admission in very popular and prestigious colleges particularly in big towns and cities. This apart there are also many Deemed Universities offering various engineering courses where students get admission. Even B.S. Abdur Rahman Crescent Engineering College became B.S. Abdur Rahman University last year. IT companies like TCS, INFOSYS, WIPRO and COGNIZANT and many core companies visit mainly well established colleges to conduct interviews and select students for jobs. Hence getting admission in reputed colleges is very important for students both for their knowledge as well as job placement.

It is reported that many applications for starting new engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu are pending at the All India Council for Technical Education.
