NEW DELHI: The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has released the handbook for getting admission to engineering colleges. The AICTE handbook lists the mandatory courses that students should have learned in Class 12 to make them eligible to seek admission to engineering colleges.

According to the earlier released AICTE handbook, physics, chemistry and maths were not mandatory subjects to get admission in BArch (undergraduate course in architecture). But this admission norm was corrected later by the council and said that the BArch admission norms will be decided by the Council of Architecture (CoA).
