This paper focuses identifying and assessing the various determinant factors of financial literacy among the engineering students. By data collected from 253 students, the study has found that financial knowledge, financial attitude, family influence, and peer-group pressure influenced the level of financial literacy among the engineering undergraduate students. The findings suggest that long term deliberate attempts are essential for improving the financial literacy among the engineering students.
