UKSEE(Uttarakhand State Entrance Examination) is conducted by Uttarakhand Technical University for admission to various graduate and undergraduate programmes like engineering, architecture, pharmacy, hotel management and computer applications. Uttarakhand Technical University is the chief state university in Uttarakhand which provides various professional programmes in Government/aided/private/self-financing institutes in the state of Uttarakhand.

UKSEE is also conducted for direct admission to 2nd year of B.Tech programme for Engineering Diploma Holders and those who have done BSc with Mathematics as one of the subjects for various institutes in Uttarakhand. Total number of seats in the programme for lateral entry is upto 10% of normal seats.

The examination is held in different centers across the state and with large number of aspiring candidates appearing for the exam, the competition in the exam s only toughened by the fact that there are practically very less number of seats offered. The candidates belonging to different discipline but from the science background are known to appear the exam. The exam has a high standard and utilizes a unique manner of selecting the candidates through entrance exam coupled with rounds of personal interview held during the final selection.

Eligibility Criteria:

A candidate must have a diploma in engineering or BSc with Mathematics from a recognised institute with atleast 60% aggregate marks. Those who will appear for their final year exams in 2011 can also apply. The candidates who belong to the following genera have to submit their certificate of merit as and when the concerned authority required, within a stipulated time. The candidates if not able to produce the certificate on time, will have to leave their seat for other candidates. The Institute decision in the following matter is final.

Venue for Examination:

• Almora

• Dehradun

• New Delhi

• Haldwani

• Lucknow

• Nainital

• Pauri

• Pithoragarh

• Roorkee

• Rudrapur

Application Forms:

The forms will be available from the designated post offices in various cities of Uttarakhand as well as from Post offices of Lucknow GPO, Meerut City HO and New Delhi GPO. The form can also be obtained by post from UTU Office by sending a request for the form along with a demand draft. The candidates have to fill up the application form in their own handwriting and should provide a specimen of their signature at the end of the letter. Furthermore, the candidates have to provide a sample of their signature at the back side of the Demand Draft.
