This issue of Careers360 has considered over 1,250 engineering colleges, 70 design colleges, and 50 architecture colleges which have been ranked or rated for performance in their respective domains. It also deals with the shifting terrain of engineering education as experienced by students, teachers, heads of institutions, regulators and, finally, recruiters. There are interviews with leaders of some of the top tech institutions in the country. Stories take a closer look at the impact of minor BTech degrees on enrolment and placements; students who are snapping up seats in regional-language programmes; working professionals whose lives have been changed by an AICTE policy; joint international programmes; the harassment researchers face; the growth of IIITs; whether the rash of AI-ML and related courses will make a real difference in the long term and much more.
