Government College of Engineering, Kannur
The KEAM
Exam 2015 for Engineering is now over. The closing ranks for various branches
in engineering are now the most discussed topic among students who have
appeared for the KEAM exam. Let us look into the details regarding the KEAM,
the colleges that accept the scores and the closing ranks for various
engineering departments.
In the KEAM
exam, engineering aspirants need to appear for two papers – Paper 1, which
comprises Physics & Chemistry, and Paper 2, which consists of Mathematics.
Many reputed
institutes in Kerala that offer different professional degrees accept KEAM exam
scores for their admissions. This exam is conducted across all major venues in
the state of Kerala and in cities like Mumbai, New Delhi and Dubai, among
others.
We now look
into colleges admitting students on the basis of their performance in the KEAM exam;
we take a look at Government Engineering College, Kannur.
This institute was established in 1986 and is recognised by the AICTE.
This government college is affiliated to the Kannur University. It is one of
the colleges under the Directorate of Technical Education.
The institute offers undergraduate programs in Civil engineering,
Computer Science & Engineering, Electronics & Communication engineering,
Electrical & Electronics engineering and Mechanical engineering. While the
Electronics & Communication engineering department offers 95 seats every
year, rest of the departments in the college have an approved intake of 63
students every year.
Let us take a look at the closing ranks in KEAM 2014 for admission to
this institute last year (do note that the closing rank is the lowest rank at
which a student – of a particular category – was finally admitted to the
institute):
