BCECEB

BCECEB stands for Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board, a state government body established to regulate entrance examinations for admission to professional courses in Bihar. The board administers the main BCECE examination and related tests used to select candidates for admission to various degree and diploma programs in the state’s colleges and institutes.

The BCECEB conducts exams that serve as a common admission pathway for technical and allied professional programs in Bihar. In addition to the BCECE itself, the board administers related entrance tests such as the Diploma Certificate Entrance Competitive Examination (DCECE), among others, and oversees the entire admission process from application through counselling and seat allotment. The goal is to provide a transparent, merit-based mechanism for allocating seats in participating institutions.

Geographically and administratively, BCECEB operates under the Government of Bihar and is headquartered in Patna. It is led by a chairperson and a governing board, with its functions aligned to the state’s higher education and science and technology policies. The board collaborates with state departments to ensure standardized testing, centralized counselling, and the timely publication of results and merit lists for various courses.

Eligibility requirements, exam formats, and seat allocations are described in the official BCECEB notifications for each examination. Prospective candidates are advised to consult the board’s published guidelines and notices for the most current information.
