Colleges under Bihar Engineering University – A Complete List & Insider Review

Let’s dive in: Why BEU-affiliated colleges matter

Ever wondered which engineering colleges in Bihar are now officially under the Bihar Engineering University (BEU)? It's like figuring out which festivals are happening under one roof. Back in 2023, the Bihar state government made it mandatory that all engineering colleges must affiliate with BEU—so now BEU is the umbrella university for nearly every engineering college in Bihar.

By the way, I had a chat with a senior—Arun Gupta, BEU batch of 2024—who told me, “Man, I switched from a random polytechnic to go through BEU counselling in 2024. Having all colleges under one university made the process smoother.” So yes, having colleges under one university system brings standardization and easier admissions.

Now, buckle up—here’s the scoop on BEU-affiliated colleges, complete story-style guide with lists, anecdotes, insights, and expert-backed info.
