Our college has great faculty members who provide great teaching.

Placements: Top recruiters who visited our campus for placements were PWC, TATA Trusts, KPMG, UMC, Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, etc. They hired the most talented students from our campus. The average salary package offered was 7 LPA - 8 LPA. Almost 80-90% of students got hired. Some of the job profiles offered were urban planners, community developers, etc.

CEPT is the stepping stone to move forward in this industry, and it has an edge over SPAs and NITs.

Placements: You have to find placements on your own. There are certain measures taken, but honestly, it is not that difficult to get placed if you have the CEPT tag on your CV. You'll start as an intern, but you'll know that you know more than Master's students from other colleges at that level.

Infrastructure: The college is situated right in the center of the city. Hostels are 15 minutes away from college. The best library is available in our college. Continuous efforts are made to improve and conserve the existing infras...

It is the best college in Ahmedabad for B.Arch.

Placements: Seats are getting filled in Architecture, and the seats in other courses are left out, but I don't think they are offering anything less as I am able to see the difference between CEPT passouts and normal college passouts. 100% of students get internships in reputed companies, and people also gets hired there.

Infrastructure: All the buildings are well-maintained, and we have Wi-Fi on the whole campus. The best thing is we have two canteens which offer food at the best affordable prices in the whole nearby area....

It is good for students who already have a family business associated with the construction sector.

Placements: Placements are pretty mediocre in the university compared to its brand within the state. University's outreach programme is weak compared to Nirma, DDIT or LD. However, things are gradually improving with each passing year. Top companies like L&T and SPCL come at times, but a lot of companies would come if the strength of students were more. The salary package offered is around 3 LPA to 6.5 LPA for freshers. Mega seems to be the top employer as of now for students in the Faculty of Technology. S...

CEPT University has its own entrance exam for admission to its Bachelor of Architecture B.Arch programme, which is known as the CEPT Entrance Test (CET). The CET exam is conducted by CEPT University and is the only way to get admission into their B.Arch programme. However, candidates who have cleared the JEE Main Paper 2 (B.Arch/B.Planning) exam are also eligible to apply for the B.Arch programme at CEPT University, provided they also appear for the CET exam and meet the other eligibility criteria set by the university. So, in summary, while JEE Mains B.Arch exam is not a direct route to admission in CEPT University, clearing the JEE Main Paper 2 exam can make you eligible to apply for the B.Arch programme at CEPT University, along with the requirement to clear the CET exam.
