Further notes from the sources

  • Its own course table gives the same five programmes and the same annual intakes as the Institute of Engineering booklet: 96 places each in Civil, Electronics and Computer, 48 each in Architecture and Electrical.3
  • Applicants to Architecture sit an aptitude test the college runs itself, on top of the Institute of Engineering entrance, and the original entrance score card has to be handed over at admission.3
  • It reserves an extra 10 per cent of places for women beyond the merit list, and a separate 10 per cent sponsorship scheme in each faculty requires a payment guarantee from a company or institution.3
  • Students must keep 75 per cent attendance to sit the Institute of Engineering final examination, and the college uniform is compulsory to enter a class with no exception offered.3
  • The domain the census first tried for this college, keckist.edu.np, fails on a security certificate belonging to a hosting company and returns a 404 over plain HTTP. Its working site is kecktm.edu.np.4
