College Admission Procedure to Btech with Course Fee

Image
Bachelor of Technology or B. Tech is a professional Engineering programme and can be studied after completion of plus two. Usually, the courses offered under B.Tech are regulated by the University Grants Commission and All India Council for Technical Education ( AICTE ). From Electrical Engineering to Civil Engineering , you can pursue B. Tech in many disciplines of engineering studies. Here’s is what you need to know before opting for B. Tech: 1. The prerequisite of B. Tech is that you need to complete 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM subjects). You need to pass your 10+2 exams with at least 50%-60% marks from a recognized board. After that, you can prepare and sit for entrance exams. There are many private Engineering colleges who organize their own entrance examinations for admitting students. You can sit for any of them. Or, you can even pursue diploma if you have completed your 10th in Science. After completing your diploma (which is a 3 years

Top 5 Engineering Marvels of the Modern World

Innovation is what fosters development in science and technology – to make people’s lives better.   3D printer  Here are some of the top engineering marvels of the modern world: 3D printers (mechanical engineering) A 3D printer, as it name implies, prints three-dimensional objects while being guided by a computer. 3D printers have come in trend as companies have been implementing it to print/produce complex/intricate parts of their overall product to reduce production cost. As 3D printers use electronic data source to print 3-D models, objects of almost any shape or geometry can be printed. Just like conventional 2D printers, 3-D printers use ink jets to shape the object (intended to be printed) layer by layer. Smart grid (electrical engineering) A smart grid is an electrical grid which comprises of a variety of operational measures including Energy efficient resources, renewable energy resources, Smart appliances, and smart meters.

Computer Engineering is one of the most promising disciplines in Engineering as computers are the sole platform for the development of different technologies.  It is because of this that the engineering discipline is constantly evolving. Here are some interesting facts about Computer Engineering . First computer The first computer and its origin would be challenging to trace as computers evolved with time. However, according to Wikipedia, the Oxford English Dictionary lists the use of the word ‘computer’ in a 1613 book known as “The Yong Mans Gleanings.” The use of devices to aid computation dates back to pre-20 th century. The Abacus was one of the most prominent computational devices which were used in around 2400 BC. The Antikythera mechanism is believed to be the first mechanical computer. Digital computers, during their early stage, were electromechanical; mechanical relays were driven by electric switches to perform calculations. With the

5 Famous Mechanical Engineering Inventions

Image
There have been several mechanical inventions in the past that have shaped the technology around us, thanks to some of the brilliant minds who could defy the limits creativity and knowledge. Here are some of the famous Mechanical engineering inventions: Steam turbine A steam turbine is a device which rotates through pressurised steam. The rotary motion generated by the turbine is used to drive electric generator in power plants to generate electric power. The origin of early steam turbine dates back to the 1 st century. It was Anglo-Irish Engineer Charles Algernon Parsons who invented the modern steam turbine in 1884. His first model of steam turbine was coupled with a dynamo (electrical generator) which had the capacity to generate 7.5kW of electricity. Parson’s steam turbine revolutionized marine transport and naval warfare as it made the generation of cheap electricity in large amounts possible. Ball bearing A ball bearing is a type o

Skills You Need to Get Placed After Completing Engineering Course

Image
Getting your first engineering job may seem exciting to you but it’s not as easy as it sounds. Given the immense number of engineering colleges in India that produce engineering diploma holders and graduates every year, it can be a bit of a challenge to try and compete with others to land an engineering job. Here, we have shared some skills that you need to have in order to get placed after completing your engineering course. Start preparing early When you are in college pursuing your engineering course, you must be pretty aware of the fact that the college will conduct placements where only a limited number of students stand a chance to get the job. So, if you want to land a job as soon as you complete your course, you must start preparing for it from the very early on, and this would mean that you maintain a good academic repo. When you work hard for your semesters and get good grades, it is certainly going to be fruitful by increasing your chances t

Electronics and Communication Engineering: 5 Trends to Disrupt the Industry

Image
It all started with the invention of the transistor in 1947, Electronic Engineering has played a key role in shaping the state of modern technology that we have access to. And Electronic Engineering is only going to evolve with new innovations to make technology more efficient and useful. Here are the 5 latest electronic trends: Organic electronics Soon, the way people interact with technology is going to change with the advent of organic electronics. As the name implies, organic electronics is the practice of using conductors made from polymers or organic carbon-based molecules using chemical synthesis. What’s interesting is that organic electronics is not limited to just polymers but also includes other organic materials such as organic charge-transfer complexes and variety of dyes which could find use in electronic circuits. The main advantage of organic conducting materials over the conventional inorganic ones (such as copper and aluminium) is that th

6 Famous Electronic Engineers

The modern gadgets we use today have come a long way from the interesting days of inventions of electrical and electronic pioneers. Electronic inventors in the past have made a great contribution in laying a solid foundation of the state of technology today. Here, we take a retrospective into the contributions of some of the most famous electronic engineers . 1. Joseph Henry Joseph Henry was an American scientist who has made several influential contributions to electromagnetism. Joseph Henry developed the electromagnet into a practical device. He also discovered the electromagnetic phenomenon of self-inductance when he was working to build electromagnets. He also invented the electric relay and discovered mutual inductance independently of Michael Faraday. The electric telegraph invented separately by Sir Charles Wheatstone and Samuel F. B. Morse was based on Henry’s electromagnetic relay. The SI unit of inductance, Henry, is named in his honour. 2. Gordon Moore Go
