About MAR BASELIOS COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY

Mar Baselios College of Engineering and Technology (MBCET), established in 2002, is a premier autonomous institution located in the heart of Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. Situated within the prestigious Mar Ivanios Vidyanagar campus on a scenic hilltop in Nalanchira, the college is a flagship venture of the Malankara Catholic Educational Society. MBCET has distinguished itself by becoming one of the first few private engineering colleges in Kerala to be granted Autonomous status by the UGC and the State Government. This autonomy allows the institution to design its own industry-centric curriculum and examination patterns, ensuring that students are prepared for the rapidly evolving global tech landscape. The college is accredited by NAAC with an 'A' Grade and holds NBA accreditation for all its major engineering departments. The institution offers a wide range of undergraduate B.Tech programs, including new-age specializations like Artificial Intelligence, alongside traditional core engineering branches. It also offers several M.Tech specializations and Ph.D. programs. MBCET is widely recognized for its high-end research facilities and industry collaborations. It hosts an Apple Authorized Training Center for Education (AATCE), a Fab Lab in association with MIT Media Lab, and specialized training cells for companies like Bosch and NVIDIA. The faculty consists of highly experienced academics and industry veterans who emphasize experiential learning and research-driven pedagogy. This robust academic ecosystem is supported by a 1Gbps high-speed campus network and a world-class digital library. Student life at MBCET is vibrant and holistic, centered around the 'Crossroads' annual festival and numerous technical chapters including IEEE, ASME, and SAE. The campus provides a self-contained environment with premium amenities, including modern hostels, an indoor stadium, and extensive sports facilities. The Training and Placement Cell is exceptionally strong, consistently securing placements for over 90% of eligible students in major multinational corporations and high-growth startups. With its strategic location, cutting-edge infrastructure, and commitment to excellence, MBCET continues to be a top-ranked destination for engineering aspirants in 2026.
