TCET Mumbai BE Mechanical Engineering: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. BE Mechanical Engineering at TCET covers core subjects including engineering mathematics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, machine design, manufacturing processes, heat transfer, industrial engineering, and computer-aided design and manufacturing. Later semesters include electives related to automotive engineering, robotics, and mechatronics. The curriculum is designed as per the University of Mumbai syllabus and includes practical labs, workshop training, and project work in each semester.

Ans. The total fee for BE Mechanical Engineering at TCET Mumbai is INR 5,76,000 for the complete 4-year program. Optional hostel accommodation costs INR 60,000 to INR 92,000 per year for boys and INR 1,42,500 to INR 2,11,600 per year for girls depending on room type. A non-refundable INR 1,000 processing fee applies at the time of admission through the DTE Maharashtra CAP process.

Ans. Graduates of BE Mechanical Engineering from TCET can pursue careers in manufacturing companies, automotive firms, construction equipment, HVAC companies, and production consultancies in the Mumbai and Pune industrial belt. Common roles include production engineer, design engineer, quality control engineer, and project engineer. Graduates can also pursue GATE for M.Tech admissions at NITs or IITs in streams such as thermal engineering, manufacturing, or design engineering.

Ans. Placement activity at TCET is more active for CS, IT, and allied computing branches. Mechanical Engineering graduates typically find fewer on-campus recruitment opportunities compared to IT branches. However, students who proactively pursue core mechanical roles through off-campus routes, industrial training, and GATE-based higher studies have found employment in manufacturing and automotive firms in the Mumbai and Pune regions. Self-driven placement preparation is advisable for mechanical students.

Ans. Yes, diploma holders in Mechanical Engineering or allied branches from a recognized polytechnic with a minimum of 45% aggregate marks (40% for reserved category) are eligible for lateral entry into the second year of BE Mechanical Engineering at TCET. This admission is also processed through DTE Maharashtra’s CAP for direct second year entry. Seat availability is subject to the approved intake sanctioned by the university for that academic year.
