Admissions
Admissions to the seats not reserved for the Jain religious minority, for first-year undergraduate engineering programs, are carried out via the Centralized Admissions Process (CAP) of the State Government's Directorate of Technical Education (DTE).
Each engineering branch takes in 60 students. This intake is only for admissions to the first year of the 4-year B.E. degree program but includes direct admissions to the second year for Jain students who have completed 3-year engineering diplomas.
As a private college, it also has some "institute-level seats" which are filled on merit basis.
Place distribution is shown below:
Branch | Intake | CAP seats | Institute Level seats | Minority sets |
---|---|---|---|---|
Civil Engineering | 120 | 35 | 24 | 61 |
Computer Engineering | 180 | 53 | 36 | 91 |
Information Technology | 120 | 35 | 24 | 61 |
Mechanical Engineering | 120 | 35 | 24 | 61 |
Computer Science and Engineering (Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning) | 60 | 17 | 12 | 31 |

- Strength of MaterialsLab (shared with the Department of Mechanical Engineering).
Applied Sciences and Humanities
The department of applied sciences and humanities does not offer any degrees of its own, but supports the curriculum of other departments by offering courses in the following disciplines:
- Applied Mathematics(first 4 or 5 semesters in each branch).
- Applied Physics(first 2 semesters).
- Applied Chemistry(first 2 semesters).
- Communication Skills (second semester).
- Presentation and Communication Techniques (third semester of each branch).
- Environmental Studies(fifth semester of each branch except civil engineering).
In the 4-year Bachelor of Engineering curriculum of the University of Mumbai, the first year (i.e., the first 2 semesters) is shared by all engineering majors. Thus, first-year students of the Parshvanath College of Engineering were managed by the department of applied sciences and humanities, rather than the departments of the engineering branches that they had taken admission in.
The department of applied sciences and humanities has the following laboratories:[11]
- Applied Chemistry Lab
- Applied Physics Lab
- Computer ProgrammingLab
- Engineering MechanicsLab
- Language Lab (for the subjects of communication skills and presentation & communication techniques)
- Basic Electronics EngineeringLab
- Sci Lab (for Scilab software taught in applied mathematics)
Library
The
The library had two reading rooms (one of which is air-conditioned), a reference section (for using books without taking them out of the library), and an internet surfing section for students and staff members.
Students could either take books for "reference" (returning them on the same day) or for "issue" (returning them after a maximum duration of one week). A book bank is also provided by the library to students from 3rd semester and hard copy of notes to first-year students.
