What Sarvajanik College of Engineering & Technology does

Sarvajanik College of Engineering & Technology (SCET) is a private, nonprofit engineering institution located in Surat, Gujarat, India. Founded in 1995 as the lead institute of the Sarvajanik Education Society (SES, established 1912), SCET was reorganized in 2021 as a constituent institute of the newly formed Sarvajanik University. The institution serves undergraduate and postgraduate students through 9 UG and 6 PG programs spanning engineering, technology, and computer applications, organized across 12 academic departments and supported by 14 student chapters and specialized clubs including an AI Club, SYNERGY.io Club, Coding Club, and IoT Club.

The institution's core offering is multi-year, credit-bearing academic delivery leading to B.Tech, M.Tech, and MCA credentials. The technology surface comprises standard engineering laboratories, computer-aided facilities, and student-run technical clubs. A new Department of AI and Data Science, recurring AI-themed workshops (2023-2026), and B.Tech + MS international articulation programs indicate incremental product expansion into emerging-tech curriculum and global academic pathways.

SCET's business model is tuition- and academic-fee-based, generating recurring subscription-like revenue across multi-year degree cycles from a distributed base of ~2,800+ students. Ancillary revenue is derived from placement services (a stated 70% placement rate), examination fees, and partnership-linked international programs. The institution is NBA-accredited (since 2016), has participated in NIRF rankings from 2017 to 2025, and reports an employee base in the 501-1,000 range.
