Engineering Courses: Complete Guidelines
The term “Engineering” has originated from the Latin word Ingenium means ‘Cleverness and Ingeniare means ‘to create’.
“Engineering is an application that involves in scientific and practical knowledge in order to invent, maintain, improve, build, design, system, devices, material, machine and process.”
The Engineering study is one of the best and most soughed disciplines of academic education. It is growing with the development of nation, education, technology and research.
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 2018). For admission to IITs (Indian Institute of Technology), students have to appear the JEE Advanced 2018.
Some states also organize their own entrance test for providing admission to B.Tech programme. Some state level entrance exams are BCECE 2018 conducted by Bihar state, JCECE 2018 conducted by Jharkhand state, TS EAMCET 2018 by Telangana state, AP EAMCET 2018 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 2018. Some state level entrance test are also conducted for M.Tech admission like AP PGECET 2018, TANCET 2018, CUCET 2018, 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
After B.Tech, you can go for a job. Some colleges provide campus placement to their students. If you will not get campus placement, then you can apply for the companies by our own. If you have a dream to run your own company then you can also become an entrepreneur.
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.

Hello.. I am a student of non med andcurrently pursuing from 12th cbse board.. I have had a doubt within me eversince.. I am not that interested in physics and thus rules out mechanical engineering for me and have a n interest in chemistry which opens up chemical engineering for me but i have often heard that it is extremely tough and making career out of it is difficult.. So can you please recommend what i should do and suggest some fields.. Thank you.
You should go with your interest (as Chemistry), because by your interest you can set a good career and of course experts and brilliants are always welcomed.
