BGS College of Engineering and Technology (BGSCET) in Bangalore is a private engineering college under the BGS Educational Trust (a unit of the Sri Adichunchanagiri Shikshana Trust), AICTE approved and affiliated to Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU). Established in 2002, the college is located on Mysuru Road (NH-275) in Kengeri, West Bangalore — adjacent to the Kengeri Metro station on the Purple Line. BGSCET offers only computer-science-focused branches — there are no Civil, Mechanical, ECE, or EEE branches — making it a specialist CS/IT college rather than a full-spectrum engineering institution.

Branches Offered at BGSCET 2026-27
BGSCET is a specialist CS/IT engineering college. All five B.E. branches are computer-science focused — there are no traditional core engineering branches (Civil, Mechanical, ECE, EEE). This makes BGSCET particularly suited for students specifically targeting software careers rather than manufacturing or core engineering roles.
| Branch | Seats | KCET 2024 Closing Rank (GM) |
|---|---|---|
| Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) | 120 | ~29,071 |
| Artificial Intelligence and Data Science (AI&DS) | 60 | ~40,321 |
| Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI&ML) | 60 | ~42,110 |
| Information Science and Engineering (ISE) | 60 | ~50,000 |
| Computer Science and Design (CSD) | 60 | ~53,000 |
KCET closing ranks are for General Merit (GM) category, last round, 2024-25. Ranks change every year. Verify with cetonline.karnataka.gov.in for 2026-27 actual allotment data.
Admission at BGSCET — 2026-27
BGSCET admits students through three routes: KCET (government quota, largest share at ~56% of intake), COMEDK UGET, and management quota (where JEE Main scores are also accepted). Karnataka domicile students with a valid KCET rank apply through KEA's online counselling — BGSCET's KCET code is E-286. Non-Karnataka students apply via COMEDK (code E-207). Management quota admissions are done directly by the college.
Eligibility: Class 12 with Physics and Mathematics as compulsory subjects, plus Chemistry/Biology/Electronics/Computer Science. Minimum 45% aggregate for general category (40% for SC/ST/OBC). Valid KCET or COMEDK rank required for respective quotas.
Fee Structure at BGSCET 2026-27
| Quota | Annual Fee (Approx) | Note |

| Management Quota — CSE | Rs 5,00,000 | Highest for CSE |
| Management Quota — AI&ML / AI&DS | Rs 4,50,000 | Per year |
| Management Quota — ISE / CSD | Rs 3,50,000 – 4,00,000 | Per year |
Fees above are approximate 2025-26 figures. University fees, exam fees, and hostel charges are additional. Verify exact 2026-27 fees with BGSCET admissions office before paying.
Location and Connectivity
BGSCET's Kengeri location on Mysuru Road (NH-275) gives it direct metro access — the Kengeri station is the western terminus of Bangalore Metro's Purple Line, connecting the campus to Indiranagar, MG Road, Majestic, and Whitefield in 40–60 minutes. This makes BGSCET one of the better-connected private engineering colleges in West Bangalore for day scholars commuting from across the city. BMTC bus routes along Mysuru Road also connect Kengeri to South and Central Bangalore.
The Mysuru Road corridor hosts several industrial areas (Peenya, Rajajinagar) and is along the Bangalore-Mysuru Expressway, which has seen significant infrastructure development. For CSE/AI students, Bangalore's tech companies are accessible via metro for internships and off-campus placements.
Infrastructure and Facilities
BGSCET's campus includes a 1,000-seat Assessmentorium for technical conferences and cultural events, a fully computerised library with 7,000+ volumes and 11 international journals, dedicated labs for each branch, separate boys and girls hostels with RO water and backup generators, and a dedicated health centre. The college has institutional membership in SWAYAM-NPTEL (College ID 5497), CII, and IEEE and CSI student chapters.
Placements at BGSCET
BGSCET's first UG batch (admitted 2022) is scheduled to graduate in mid-2026 — making this the first complete placement cycle. Third-party aggregators report a highest package of approximately Rs 27 LPA and an average of approximately Rs 4.5 LPA, but these figures are not officially confirmed by the college. Active industry engagement includes Infosys Campus Connect training, HR Conclave events, and an International Internship Programme. For verified placement data, check BGSCET's official website directly.
Graduates from computer-science branches at BGSCET target IT service companies, product startups, and the tech companies accessible via Bangalore's tech corridor. Self-driven skill development through certifications (AWS, Python, full-stack), GitHub portfolios, and internships significantly improves placement outcomes at this tier of college.
BGSCET vs Similar Colleges
At a KCET closing rank of ~29,000–53,000 for its branches, BGSCET competes with Sapthagiri NR Engineering College, RR Institute of Technology, and similar West/North Bangalore colleges in the same rank range. BGSCET's advantages are its metro connectivity, CS-only specialisation, and modern campus infrastructure. Its limitation is the absence of core engineering branches — students wanting Mechanical, Civil, or ECE need to consider other colleges.
