About GATEGraduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is an all India examination that primarily tests the comprehensive understandingof various undergraduate subjects in Engineering and Technology. The GATE score of a candidate reflects a relativeperformance of a candidate. The score is used for admissions to post-graduate engineering programmes (eg. M.E., M.Tech,direct Ph.D.) in Indian higher education institutes with financial assistance provided by MHRD and other Government agencies. The score may also used by Public sector units for employment screening purposes.

Financial Assistance

A valid GATE score is essential for obtaining a financial assistance during Masters programmes and in some cases duringdirect Doctoral programmes in Engineering/Technology/Architechture, and Doctoral programs in relevant branches of Sciencein an Institution supported by the MHRD or other Government organizations. To avail the financial assistance (scholarship),the candidate must first secure admission to a programme in these Institutes, by a procedure that could be different for eachinstitute. Qualification in GATE is also a minimum requirement to apply for various fellowships awarded by many Governmentorganizations.However, candidates with a Master’s degree in Engineering/Technology/Architecture may seek admission torelevant Doctoral programmes with scholarship/assistantship without appearing in the GATE examination.

Administration

GATE is administered and conducted jointly by the Indian Institute of Science and seven Indian Institutes of Technology onbehalf of the National Coordination Board (NCB) – GATE, Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Human ResourceDevelopment (MHRD), Government of India. The GATE Committee, which comprises of representatives from the administeringinstitutes, is the sole authority for conducting the examination and declaring the results.GATE is conducted through the constitution of eight zones. The zones and the corresponding administrative institutes are:

Zone-1: Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore

ABOUT AP-SET7

Page 10: Caeet Information Broucher-2014

The Government of India as per its New Educational Policy, 1986 envisaged that in order to maintain uniform standards ofteaching in the country the candidates besides possessing minimum academic qualifications are required to qualify in acomprehensive test specifically conducted for the purpose of obtaining eligibility for appointment as Lecturers/AssistantProfessors. Accordingly UGC, New Delhi has been conducting the UGCNET Examination regularly. It was felt that aneligibility test at the national level may not be completely able to represent the subjects which are regional in their character.Moreover, there was a demand from the aspiring candidates to appear for the test in their own mother tongue, whereverapplicable. Therefore, the State Governments and Union Territories were given an option of conducting their own test foreligibility for Lecturership at the state level. Thus was born the concept of State Eligibility Test, which will be conducted bothin English and the vernacular.2. The State Eligibility Test (SET) is based on the pattern of the National Eligibility Test (CSIR/UGCNET)conducted by UGC/CSIR. The State Governments and Union Territories, who wish to conduct the SET are supposed to obtain accreditationfrom UGC from time to time.As the State Governments were given an option to conduct their own State Level Eligibility Test (SLET), the Andhra PradeshCollege Service Commission was identified as the Nodal Agency to conduct SLET for eligibility for Lectureship in collegesin Andhra Pradesh. Accordingly, APCSE conducted SLET thrice from February, of 1997 to February, 1998. Later, the Governmentof Andhra Pradesh abolished the APCSE and subsequently UGC has withdrawn accreditation in 2005. Now, the AndhraPradesh Government has decided to conduct SET Examination in the interest of large number of aspirants for recruitmentas Assistant Professors/Lecturers through direct recruitment or by promotions in universities and degree colleges in theState and also to facilitate the candidates to appear for the test in Telugu medium, wherever applicable. After carefulconsideration of the matter, the UGC, New Delhi has identified the Osmania University as the State Agency for AndhraPradesh to conduct the State Eligibility Test (SET) in Andhra Pradesh for 24 subjects for the year 2012.

ABOUT IISC

The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) was conceived as a ´Research Institute´ or ´University of Research´ by JamsetjiNusserwanji Tata, in the final years of the 19th century. A long period of almost thirteen years was to elapse from the initialconception in 1896 to the birth of the institute on May 27, 1909. The early history of the Institute is a fascinating chapter in thestory of higher education and scientific research in India. The cast of characters in the drama that led to the establishmentof the Institute includes, in addition to its charismatic and generous founder J.N. Tata, figures from the pages of Indianhistory. There is Swami Vivekananda, whom J.N. Tata befriended on his famous voyage to the United States, the Maharajaof Mysore, Shri Krishnaraja Wodeyar IV and his mother then acting on his behalf, and Lord Curzon the Viceroy of India,whose first task on arrival on December 31, 1898 was to receive a draft proposal prepared by the Provisional Committee setup to plan the establishment of the Institute. The plan was shepherded through many difficult years by Burjorji Padshah, aclose associate of J.N. Tata. Unfortunately, J.N. Tata died in 1904 unaware that his vision would indeed be realized a fewyears later. When the British Government fi nally issued the Vesting Order in 1909, an unmatched experiment in highereducation and research was launched in India. IISc is truly the first example of a public-private partnership in this country;an institution, whose evolution over a century is testimony to the robustness of its foundations.

The Institute occupies nearly 400 acres of prime land in Bangalore, generously donated by the Maharaja of Mysore inMarch 1907. Indeed, the contribution from the princely state of Mysore was the decisive element in determining thelocation of J.N. Tata´s proposed institution. Remarkably, in a gesture unmatched in the annals of private philanthropy

10

Page 13: Caeet Information Broucher-2014

in India, Tata did not wish his name to be associated with the Institute. His dream was to create an institution thatwould contribute to the development of India. The name, Indian Institute of Science, which was finally chosen, reflectsin every way the wishes of J.N. Tata. Visitors to Bangalore who seek out IISc still have to ask local residents fordirections to the ́ Tata Institute´, a clear recognition that Jamsetji Tata´s act of generosity has remained undimmed inpublic memory, despite the passage of a century.

The Institute began with only two departments: General and Applied Chemistry and Electro-Technology. The firstDirector, Morris W Travers began the task of organizing the Institute shortly after his arrival in India at the end of 1906.Travers began the construction of the main building, which is one of Bangalore´s landmarks today. The Departmentsof Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry were among the earliest to be established. The Physics department cameinto being in 1933, when C.V. Raman became the first Indian Director of the Institute. In the century that has passedsince its inception, IISc has grown to become India´s premier centre for research and postgraduate education inscience and engineering. The evolution of the Institute over the past one hundred years has mirrored the developmentof science and technology in India. A long history, a

strong tradition of academic research and an ambience that favours scholarly activity have been important elements inmaking the Institute a most attractive place for students and faculty. As the Institute has grown, several new areas ofresearch have been established, many of them for the first time in India. The Institute´s departments in fields rangingfrom Biochemistry to Aerospace Engineering have served to nucleate research and development in both the public andprivate sectors. The faculty and alumni of the Institute have been responsible for establishing

and spearheading many new institutions and programs across the country, reflecting in a real sense, a major contributionof this centre of learning to national growth and development. Homi Bhabha conceived the idea of the Tata Institute ofFundamental Research (TIFR) and an Atomic Energy Program while working in the Department of Physics. VikramSarabhai, the founder of India´s space program was an alumnus. Following his premature death, the Indian

Space Research Organization (ISRO) was built by the farsighted leadership of Satish Dhawan, who simultaneouslyheld the position of the Director of the Institute with the greatest distinction. The first Indian Institute of Technology (IIT)at Kharagpur was established by J.C. Ghosh, who was the Director of IISc in the critical period 1939-48, during whichmuch of the activity in engineering was initiated at the Institute. Many of India´s most distinguished scientists havebeen associated with the Institute as students or faculty. Notable among them are G.N. Ramachandran, HarishChandra, S. Ramaseshan, A. Ramachandran, C.N.R. Rao and R. Narasimha. Alumni of the Institute head many majororganizations in India and abroad.

The Institute offers a variety of Master´s degree programs in Engineering, an integrated Ph.D. (post-B.Sc.) program inSciences and Ph.D. programs in a wide spectrum of disciplines in science and engineering. Last year the Institutelaunched a 4-year undergraduate program leading to a B.S. degree, with an opportunity for students to obtain a broadfoundation in science, including an exposure to research. The research laboratories at the Institute are extremely wellequipped. Many national facilities are housed at the Institute. The library and computational facilities at the Instituteare amongst the best in India. A major program for modernizing laboratories is underway. The Institute hosts hundreds

of visitors from India and abroad every year and is the venue for many major national and international academicevents.

The face of science and engineering research has been changing very rapidly over the past few years. In approachingthe second century of the Institute many new activities have been initiated. Notable among them are the interdisciplinaryPh.D. programs in Mathematical Sciences and Nanoscience and Engineering. A new program in Bioengineering hasbeen launched this year. These programs are intended to blur the traditional boundaries between disciplines, therebypromoting cross-disciplinary research. An M.Tech. program in Transportation Engineering was introduced in 2010and a Master´s program in Management with a focus on Technology Management and Business Analytics wasstarted last year. New centres in the areas of Earth Sciences, Climate Change and Neuroscience have been establishedin the last few years. The Institute hopes to foster collaborative and interdisciplinary research in a vigorous fashion inthe years to come. The Institute is also committed to promoting post-doctoral research in the areas of science andengineering.

ABOUT PCUA central University, established through an Act of Parliament in 1985, has just completed its 25th year of existence. Thecampus is spread over 780 acres of land with lush green tropical vegetation; and its entire campus is Wi-Fi enabled. It hasemerged as India’s fastest expanding Central University crossing growth mark of 300% during the last four years and hasabout 5000 students now representing 33 states of the country and abroad, and over 450 highly qualified faculty fromacross the country. It has a state of the art Library with remote access to over 31,000 digital information resources througha dedicated library portal (www.pondiuni.edu.in).

The University has modern laboratories equipped with sophisticated analytical instruments, facilities for sports and fitness,24 hours medical facility and a host of other amenities that make the campus self-contained and provide an ambience foracademic pursuit.The University offers 157 Masters, Doctoral and Diploma programmes in 34 Departments, 10 Centresand two Chairs under the umbrella of 15 Schools. It has a Community College and Directorate of Distance Educationoffering Business Management programmes. Besides a two-year Masters, this University offers 5 years Integratedprogrammes in Physics, Chemistry, Applied Geology, Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science and Economics.TheUniversity also has two campuses at Karaikal (150 Kms. south of Pondicherry) and at Port Blair offering Post-Graduate &Doctoral programmes. As an affiliating University, it has 5 Medical colleges, 16 Engineering Colleges, 30 Colleges ofEducation and 19 Arts and Science Colleges. Over 37,000 students are enrolled in these affiliated colleges. PondicherryUniversity was the first University to adopt the CBCS and Semester system which easily facilitates the mobility of studentswith credit transfer both in India and abroad. The University is growing with a cardinal principle of Expansion with Excellenceand Equity and remains connected globally. More than 27 MoUs have been signed with International Universities andNational institutions for exchange of faculty and students.

ABOUT JNUYoung at forty two years, as universities go, what has lent strength and energy to Jawaharlal Nehru University is the visionthat ideas are a field for adventure, experimentation and unceasing quest and diversity of opinions its chief premise. In theearly 1970s, when JNU opened its doors to teachers and students, frontier disciplines and new perspectives on olddisciplines were brought to the Indian university system. The excellent teacher-student ratio at 1:10, a mode of instructionwhich encouraged students to explore their own creativity instead of reproducing received knowledge, and an exclusivelyinternal evaluation were a new experiment on the Indian academic landscape; these have stood the test of time. The veryNehruvian objectives embedded in the founding of the University, national integration, social justice, secularism, thedemocratic way of life, international understanding and scientific approach to the problems of society had built into itconstant and energetic endeavour to renew knowledge through self-questioning. The once rugged terrain of the Aravali hillrange, where the 1000 -acre campus is housed is now lush green. Parts of it host dense forests, sustaining a birdwatcher’sparadise and some forms of wild life. The JNU campus is a microcosm of the Indian nation, drawing students from everynook and corner of the country and from every group and stratum of society. To make sure that this is so, annual admissiontests are simultaneously held at 37 centres spread across the length and breadth of the country, and special care is takento draw students from the underprivileged castes and ethic groups by reserving 22.5 per cent of seats for them. Overseasstudents form some 10 percent of the annual intake. Students’ hostels and blocks of faculty residences are interspersedwith one another, underlining the vision of a large Indian family. Even as class room teaching and, work in the library and thelaboratories have their share in the mode of instruction, personal interaction between students and teachers and amongstudents themselves form an extremely important and lively medium of generation and transmission of knowledge.Sometimes high decibel disputes about the validity of theoretical premises or cultural substructures of a particular scientificor economic thesis do spill over from the class and hostel rooms onto the middle of the campus roads, at times causingtraffic bottlenecks. Happily, these have never caused a road accident! The annual Students Union elections are conductedentirely by students. Fierce poster and cartoon wars, verbal duels and competitive yet peaceful group meetings are aviewers’ delight during the elections. Violence is the only alien on the campus. Several Centres in these Schools have beendeclared by the UGC to be Centres of ‘Excellence’. These are Centre for Historical Studies, Centre for the Study of SocialSystems, Centre for Political Studies, Centre for Economic Studies and Planning, Centre for the Study of RegionalDevelopment, all in the School of Social Sciences. In addition three Science Schools—School of Physical Sciences, Schoolof Life Sciences and School of Environmental Sciences have also received the UGC recognition as Centers for Excellence.
