Rewa Engineering College, Rewa established in 1964 has blossomed into a pioneer technical education center in Vindhya region of Madhya Pradesh. The institute is located in serene atmosphere of 250 Acres land of environment friendly campus.[2] The institute offers four bachelor degree programmes in civil (60), mechanical (60), electrical (40) and electronics and telecommunication (60) engineering with total 220 intake. The institute also offers the part-time degree programme in second shift for diploma holder field engineers in civil (20), mechanical (20) and electrical engineering branch (20) with total intake of 60.[3]

History

Declared as an autonomous society by the Government in 1998 with a board of governors to look after its affairs with the Minister (Department of Technical Education) as its chairman.The institute was affiliated to Awadhesh Pratap Singh University, Rewa, till 2000 afterwards got affiliated to Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh.
