Jamia Millia Islamia To Admit Engineering Students Through JEE

Jamia Millia Islamia University plans to do away with its engineering entrance exam and admit students through the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE), which is conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). “We have initiated the process for it and have approached the concerned authorities. There are certain procedures that need to be followed, hopefully we will be able to admit the students through JEE exam from the next academic session,” Jamia vice-chancellor Talat Ahmad said.

JEE which is used as a selection examination for all central government-funded technical schools, including the National Institutes of Technology (NITs) and the Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs). Students opting for the IITs need to clear the JEE-Advanced exam also. The Vice Chancellor said this step will help the university, which has faced cases of paper leak recently, deal better with chances of paper leak. “The recognition of courses offered by Jamia will improve significantly since the students will be admitted through JEE,” he said.
