DSCE's official admission page confirms that B.E. admission is conducted through CET and COMEDK, while the institute separately publishes Management Quota admission information.

DSCE Admission 2027 Latest Update

As of September 16, 2026, DSCE has not published a separate 2027–28 B.E. admission notification.

The latest official DSCE information includes:

• 2026–27 KEA/CET admission fee details
• 2026–27 COMEDK admission fee details
• 2026–27 Management Quota fee structure
• B.E. eligibility requirements
• Current undergraduate programme list
• Admission procedure
• Placement information
• Accreditation and NIRF documentation

DSCE's official fee page currently lists separate 2026–27 documents for KEA/CET, COMEDK and Management Quota.

Students should therefore use the 2026 information as the latest published benchmark, rather than presenting it as confirmed 2027 information.

DSCE KCET Cutoff 2027

The official DSCE KCET 2027 cutoff does not yet exist.

The latest available benchmark is the 2026 KCET cutoff.

For the General category, the 2026 Round 1 data reported the following reference closing ranks:

Branch2026 KCET Round 1 Closing Rank – General AIComputer Science & Engineering3,572CSE – Data Science3,898.5CSE – Cyber Security4,096Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning4,724CSE – IoT & Cyber Security5,054Automobile Engineering22,938Civil Engineering49,666

These are 2026 reference ranks, not 2027 cutoffs. Cutoffs can vary according to category, quota, seat type, round and candidate eligibility.

KCET cutoff trend

The 2026 Round 1 General AI cutoff ranged from 3,572 for CSE to 49,666 for Civil Engineering in the published data.

Students should use the 2026 data to understand the approximate level of competition but should not treat it as a guaranteed 2027 admission rank.

DSCE Admission Through COMEDK 2027

COMEDK UGET is another important admission route for DSCE B.E. programmes.

The official COMEDK counselling schedule confirms that Round 4 engineering allotment was published on September 1, 2026, with reporting to colleges continuing until September 8, 2026.

Therefore, the 2026 Round 4 cutoff is currently the latest completed COMEDK benchmark for DSCE.

DSCE COMEDK Cutoff 2027

The published 2026 Round 4 General-All India cutoff range extended from 6,824 for CSE to 54,638 for Civil Engineering.

Important

These are 2026 COMEDK closing ranks, not expected 2027 cutoffs.

The 2027 cutoff will depend on:

• Number of applicants
• COMEDK rank distribution
• Branch demand
• Seat matrix
• Counselling preferences
• Number of counselling rounds

DSCE Fees 2027

The official DSCE 2027–28 fee structure has not yet been released.

The institute's latest official fee documents are for 2026–27 and cover:

• KEA/CET

• VTU Fee: ₹12,320
• Eligibility fee:
• ₹0 for students who studied in Karnataka
• ₹1,800 for students who studied outside Karnataka

The official document is dated 15 July 2026.

Student CategoryAdditional Amount at DSCEStudied in Karnataka₹20,000Studied outside Karnataka₹21,800Studied outside India₹33,800

These are the official 2026–27 figures and should not be treated as the confirmed 2027 fee.

DSCE Management Quota Fees 2026–27

DSCE has published a detailed Management Quota fee structure for first-year B.E. admissions for 2026–27.

B.E. ProgrammeAnnual Tuition Fee4-Year Tuition ReferenceAeronautical Engineering₹4.00 lakh₹16.00 lakhArtificial Intelligence & Machine Learning₹6.00 lakh₹24.00 lakhAutomobile Engineering₹3.05 lakh₹12.20 lakhBiotechnology Engineering₹3.75 lakh₹15.00 lakhChemical Engineering₹3.05 lakh₹12.20 lakhCivil Engineering₹3.05 lakh₹12.20 lakhComputer Science Engineering₹6.00 lakh₹24.00 lakhCSE – Data Science₹6.00 lakh₹24.00 lakhCSE – Cyber Security₹6.00 lakh₹24.00 lakhCSE – IoT & Cyber Security₹6.00 lakh₹24.00 lakhElectronics & Communication Engineering₹5.00 lakh₹20.00 lakhElectrical & Electronics Engineering₹3.75 lakh₹15.00 lakhElectronics & Telecommunication Engineering₹3.75 lakh₹15.00 lakhMechanical Engineering₹3.50 lakh₹14.00 lakhRobotics & Artificial Intelligence₹3.75 lakh₹15.00 lakh

The official DSCE document states that these are tuition fees for the 2026–27 academic year and notes that students must additionally pay other fees of approximately ₹50,000 per year.

Important fee clarification

The 4-year figures above are simple calculations based on the same annual tuition amount appearing in the 2026–27 DSCE document. They should not be treated as a confirmed 2027–31 total course fee, because DSCE can revise the fee structure.

DSCE Management Quota Admission 2027

DSCE officially publishes a separate Management Quota admission route.

For the 2026–27 cycle, the institute required candidates to meet academic conditions and appear in an accepted entrance examination. The official Management Quota document also specifies a document-verification process.

Documents listed by DSCE include:

• Original 10th certificate
• Original 12th certificate
• Transfer Certificate
• Migration Certificate for non-Karnataka candidates
• Parent's PAN card copy

The institute also provides separate hostel contact details in the Management Quota admission document.

DSCE Hostel

DSCE has hostel facilities for students, with separate accommodation arrangements for boys and girls.

The 2026–27 Management Quota admission document lists:

• Indian Boys Hostel
• NRI Boys Hostel
• Girls Hostel

The document provides separate hostel contact numbers but does not establish a single consolidated 2027 hostel fee.

DSCE's official website currently highlights:

• 1,500+ placement offers annually

The department separately reports historical placement outcomes for 2021–22 through 2024–25.

Important placement note

The ₹40 LPA highest package and ₹7.5 LPA average package shown on DSCE's current admissions portal should not automatically be interpreted as the average/highest package of every 2027 graduating batch.
