Amrita College of Engineering & Technology (ACET), formerly Sun College of Engineering is an engineering college located at Erachakulam, Nagercoil in Kanyakumari district, Tamil Nadu, India. Established in 1999 by the ACP Education Trust, it was acquired by the Mata Amritanandamayi Math and renamed in 2018.[1] In 2024, all programs in this institute were closed progressively and the campus subsequently became part of Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham University.[2]

Campus[edit]

It is located seven km (4.3 mi) north-west of Main-town Nagercoil, at Erachakulam. The college campus spans over 110 acres (0.45 km2). The total built up area over 50,000 m2 (540,000 sq ft) of the institution includes accommodating lecture halls, laboratories, staff rooms, libraries and workshop.

List of institutions[edit]

The campus contains an engineering college, a polytechnic college and a college of education (Co- Education). The college of engineering was approved by AICTE, New Delhi and affiliated to Anna University, Chennai offering five full-time undergraduate and two full-time postgraduate engineering programmes and management studies to students. BE/BTech admissions for Govt. quota seats are filled as per government of Tamil Nadu norms through TNEA(Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions) counselling conducted by the Anna University and the management quota seats are filled through regulated management seat procedures done by the Consortium of Private Self Financing Arts, Science and Engineering Colleges. In every course, 65% of the seats are filled through counselling and 35% of the seats by management quota. From 2023-24, all programs of all three colleges were discontinued phased out progressively.
