There are in all 12 courses available in the institute out of which 7 are B.Tech and the rest are M.Tech. All undergraduate programmes are full-time courses which take 4 years to complete. The B.Tech programmes offered are Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electronics & Communication Engineering, Computer science & Engineering, Automobile Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, and Biomedical Engineering and M.Tech courses in Applied Electronics and Communication Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Environmental Engineering and Thermal Engineering are provided by the college. The capacity to enroll students in each of the M.Tech programmes is 18. Different categories have different approvals for intake, B.Tech programmes as follows Computer science and engineering, Mechatronics engineering and biomedical engineering have intakes of 60 of the total and all other branches have intakes of 30 of the total.

Admission to MCET depended mostly on test results with a trend to increase test scores. In B.Tech programmes, the college accepts scores from JEE Main examination, KEAM examination and also UGET examination. These examinations act as a channel through which the intending students are able to gain admission place in the college. The institute has a merit based admission process so that, students having talent will get the opportunity to study engineering at MCET.

This study has given an account of how MCET has developed itself into a credible organisation in offering engineered knowledge. In as much as the tertiary, the college offers a wide-ranging course offers a broad course-directory, modern teaching facilities, and a pragmatic training concept, the institution produces the technicians required to thrive within the complex and active technological world. At MCET we recognise that growth is a process and as MCET changes to meet the ever emerging demands of the industry it will remain dedicated to the development of engineering education in Kerala and the rest of the world.
