GET

The Graduate Engineering Test (GET) is a postgraduate-level entrance examination conducted for admission to Master of Technology (M.Tech) and Master of Engineering (M.E.) programmes at various technical institutes and universities across India. The exam is primarily conducted by specific state universities or groups of technical institutions to identify meritorious engineering graduates for advanced technical education. The Graduate Engineering Test serves as an alternative or complementary examination to national-level tests like GATE, particularly for candidates seeking admission to regional technical institutes. The conducting body for the Graduate Engineering Test varies depending on the state or consortium of institutions. Several state technical universities conduct their own versions of GET to admit students to their affiliated colleges and university departments. The exam is designed to assess candidates' undergraduate engineering knowledge across core subjects relevant to their chosen specialisation. The Graduate Engineering Test typically carries a total of 100 or 150 marks depending on the conducting authority, with questions drawn from the candidate's engineering discipline. Top participating institutes through the Graduate Engineering Test include state technical universities, government engineering colleges, and autonomous technical institutions. The exam provides admission pathways to specialisations such as Computer Science and Engineering; Electronics and Communication Engineering; Mechanical Engineering; Civil Engineering; Electrical Engineering; and other branches of engineering. Many institutes accept GET scores alongside or in place of GATE scores, making it a valuable option for postgraduate engineering aspirants who prefer regional admissions or missed the GATE examination window.
