Why E&TC is Among Maharashtra's Most Competitive Branches

Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering (E&TC) is the second-most competitive branch in Maharashtra after CSE. The branch sits at the intersection of hardware and software, making E&TC graduates versatile and highly sought by companies in semiconductors, telecom, embedded systems, and VLSI design.

Companies like Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, Intel, MediaTek, Ericsson, Nokia, and Jio Platforms recruit heavily from VJTI, COEP, and DJ Sanghvi E&TC programmes. The global semiconductor boom has further increased demand for E&TC graduates with VLSI and chip design skills.

Students who miss E&TC at their preferred college should consider: Electrical Engineering at the same college (lower cutoff, overlapping subjects), or E&TC at a slightly lower-ranked college. Both are valid alternatives with strong career outcomes.

Common questions about MHT-CET 2026 E&TC branch college prediction and cutoffs

1
Is E&TC the same as ECE in Maharashtra MHT-CET colleges?
Yes, essentially. In Maharashtra's engineering colleges under MHT-CET / CAP, the branch is called Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering (E&TC) rather than Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE). The curriculum is very similar — analog electronics, digital electronics, signal processing, communication systems, VLSI, and embedded systems. When searching for ECE colleges via MHT-CET, look for E&TC as the branch name.
2
Which college has the best E&TC programme through MHT-CET?
VJTI Mumbai E&TC is the most prestigious, requiring approximately 99.5 percentile (GOPENS). COEP Pune E&TC follows at ~99.2 percentile. Both offer top-tier faculty, research labs, and industry connections with semiconductor and telecom companies. DJ Sanghvi College Mumbai E&TC (~98.2 percentile) and SPCE Mumbai E&TC (~97.5 percentile) are excellent alternatives in the 97–99 percentile range.
3
What are the career prospects for E&TC graduates from Maharashtra?
E&TC/ECE graduates from top Maharashtra colleges are recruited by semiconductor companies (Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, Intel), telecom companies (Jio Platforms, Ericsson, Nokia), VLSI firms, and IT companies. There is also strong demand in embedded systems and IoT domains. Top college E&TC graduates often receive offers in the ₹8–20 LPA range from semiconductor and product companies.
4
What percentile is needed for E&TC at COEP Pune via MHT-CET?
COEP Pune E&TC requires approximately 99.2 percentile (GOPENS) in MHT-CET CAP Round 1. E&TC at COEP is more competitive than Mechanical and Civil but slightly less competitive than CSE. COEP E&TC has an excellent placement record with companies like Texas Instruments, ISRO, DRDO, and major IT firms recruiting from campus.
5
Can I get an E&TC seat with 97 percentile in MHT-CET?
With 97 percentile in MHT-CET 2026, you can target: SPCE Mumbai E&TC (~97.5 – borderline), SPIT Mumbai E&TC (~96.5), Thadomal Shahani Engineering College E&TC, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology Mumbai E&TC, and various government-aided colleges in Pune like Maharashtra Institute of Technology E&TC.
