Courses & Eligibility
What are the courses available in Engineering Field?
Engineering courses are available at diploma level, undergraduate level, postgraduate and doctoral levels.
Diploma Course leading to Diploma in Engineering
It is a 3-year course which students can pursue after the completion of 10 years of school education. Diploma holders are eligible for lateral entry to the third semester Engineering Courses. Diploma in Engineering is offered in various disciplines.
Undergraduate Course leading to B.Tech Degree
Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) is the 4-year full-time undergraduate course in engineering. This course can be done with one of the engineering discipline. Prerequisites for pursuing B.Tech is 10+2 passed with PCM group from the recognized educational board.
Postgraduate Course leading to M.Tech Degree
Postgraduate course in engineering resulting in the award of a Master of Engineering (M.E.) or Master of Technology (M.Tech) degree . It is a 2-years course that one can pursue after completing a 4-year undergraduate program in engineering (B.Tech).
Doctoral Course in Engineering
Doctoral of Philosophy in Engineering (Ph.D) is the advanced research course in engineering that has the duration of 3 years. Course duration varies from college to college. Students admitted to the Ph.D. program should have a master degree in respective discipline.
Admission
Admissions in the UG and PG engineering courses is done through entrance examination. The admission to undergraduate programs of all the NITs and other reputed engineering colleges is done through Joint Entrance Examination Main (JEE Main). For admission to IITs (Indian Institute of Technology), students have to appear the JEE Advanced.
Some states also organize their own entrance test for providing admission to B.Tech programme. Some state level entrance exams are BCECE conducted by Bihar state, JCECE conducted by Jharkhand state, TS EAMCET by Telangana state, AP EAMCET of Andhra Pradesh state.
If you want to take admission in M.Tech programme, then you have to appear the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE). Some state level entrance test are also conducted for M.Tech admission like AP PGECET, TANCET, CUCET, etc.
Career Scope
Engineers are highly demanded in India as well as in Foreign countries. Career options in this field are huge.
Career Options After B.Tech

Career scope in private as well as in government fields is also available. Students can apply for Indian Engineering Services (IES) examination conducted by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC).
After B.Tech, students can also go for higher studies and pursue M.tech or MBA.
Career Options After M.Tech
Teaching and research careers are open for engineers who hold postgraduate degrees in engineering. If you are holding M.tech degree then you will get preference or gain higher position in corporate companies. Both private as well as government sector gives priority to candidate with a higher degree.

B.Tech CSE is better and your interest also important (coding skills) and select the best university for your admission also like IIT, NIT, VIT, LPU etc.
my dream is to work in Infosys so which stream in engineering is better????
I, souvik de, just wants to ask that,”I got some interest in pharmacy, so do I need to have biology in 12 the class? Is that not only depends on chemistry?”
_ THANK you
No, it is not compulsary to have biology in 12th to pursue Pahrmacy.
I had recently appeared for various competitive exams and their results are yet to come . If I will fail to qualify and get average ranked college than which stream will be best for me to get a 2.5 to 3 lakh per annum job instantly after completing my engineering.
Dear abhishek sharma my personal advise for you is that you take computer science engineering in some good college and don’t try to make decision of join college near my place see the college ranking whether it is NAAC accreditation or not and which branch is good in that college/university sincere efforts will make you a person of values and knowlegable. Try to learn 3-4 programming languages(SQL,java,c, c++,python)will give an edge over others) through out the 4 years of b.tech and try to read some good articles and websites and standard books and most important take your lecture hours and assignments seriously try on your own and study well. Getting job is no big deal now a days but you should be thinking of building your profile and make a bright career. Take a right step at this point of time. any queries contact me.
