Tomorrow at Sahyadri
Sahyadri College of Engineering & Management in association with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Indian Institute of Sciences, Bangalore (IISc) will be conducting the computer-based Test for the prestigious Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE-2016). It will be conducted in 4 different phases for various disciplines. The first phase of examinations will be conducted in two different shifts - Morning: 9.00 to 12.00 Noon and Afternoon: 2.00 to 5.00 PM. Approximately 525 candidates from all over the country are expected to take part in the exam.
GATE is an all-India examination that primarily tests the comprehensive understanding of various undergraduate subjects in Engineering and Science. The GATE score of a candidate reflects the relative performance level of a candidate. The score is used for admissions to various post-graduate programs (e.g. Master of Engineering, Master of Technology, Doctor of Philosophy etc.) in Indian higher education institutes, with financial assistance provided by MHRD and other government agencies. Recently, GATE scores are also being used by several Indian public sector undertakings (i.e., government-owned companies) for recruiting graduate engineers in entry-level positions. It is one of the most competitive examinations in India. It is a great honor for Sahyadri to conduct an exam of this kind.
