When is the Kankor?Expected on 21 April 2027 — 172 days from now. This is not an official announcement; the National Examination Authority confirms the final date.

Engineering uses math and physics to design and build the physical world — roads, bridges, buildings, machines, power and water systems. Engineers turn ideas into things people use every day.

What you'll study

Mathematics, physics and engineering mechanics
Design and drafting (CAD) and materials science
A specialization: civil, mechanical, electrical or others
Project planning, surveying and hands-on labs

Where it can take you

Site or design engineer in construction firms
Roads, water, energy and infrastructure projects
Manufacturing and maintenance industries
Government departments, NGOs and consulting

How long it takes

About 4–5 years depending on the specialization.

Is it right for you?

Great if you are strong in math and physics, like solving practical problems, and enjoy building and designing.

These scores are a guide, not a promise. The real cut-off moves every year with how many students sit the exam and how many places a university has.
