Rajagiri School of Engineering & Technology (RSET) - Autonomous, situated in Rajagiri Valley, Kochi, is a leading institution dedicated to excellence in engineering education and research. In 2020, the University Grants Commission (UGC) conferred autonomous status upon RSET, which operates under the affiliation of A. P. J. Abdul Kalam Technological University, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. RSET is also approved by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), New Delhi.

Accredited with an 'A' grade by NAAC in its second cycle, RSET has seven out of its nine undergraduate programmes accredited by the NBA. RSET is ranked in the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) for 2020 and 2022 by the Ministry of Education, Government of India. The institution also offers postgraduate programmes in engineering and research programmes (Ph.D.) in science and engineering.



Managed by the Sacred Heart Province of the Carmelites of Mary Immaculate (CMI) congregation, RSET is a part of the Rajagiri Vidyapeetham (seat of knowledge), a dream eternal, being unfolded in time through the relentless CMI quest for excellence in the pursuit of Wisdom. The dream is a wide network of institutions and centers providing quality education from pre-primary to doctoral programmes of specializations and super-specializations, and seeking alternatives to the conventional mainstream efforts. As an institution which bears the traditional Rajagiri hallmark of academic brilliance and social commitment, RSET has successfully carved a niche for itself in the sphere of engineering education in the state within a very short span of its existence.

The Carmelites of Mary Immaculate is the first-ever indigenous religious congregation for men in the Syrian Catholic tradition of Christianity in India. The CMI congregation, canonically established in 1855, played a major role in revolutionizing the education scene in Kerala in the late 19^th century. Heirs to the profound vision of St. Kuriakose Elias Chavara, one of the founding fathers of the congregation, the CMIs have zealously worked towards providing value-based quality education to society at large, irrespective of religious differences, down the centuries. Today, the congregation has more than 400 educational institutions, from schools to professional colleges under its umbrella.

The Rajagiri Valley campus is a perfect blend of the urban and the rural: while the verdant and serene backdrop of the self-contained campus provides the ideal atmosphere for stimulating the creativity and intellectual pursuits of the academia, the close proximity to the industrial belt of Kerala, the Infopark, and the Smart City helps in providing the students with exposure to the practical aspects of their profession. This ensures a smooth transition from the institution to the industry for our graduates.
