If you have a question “How to Become an Engineer“? Then, this article will definitely answers your all question.

Let’s introduce the term B.Tech…

The Bachelor of Technology commonly known as B.Tech is the most popular and demanding undergraduate engineering course that can be picked after completion 12th with Science.

In India, Bachelor of Technology degree is a professional engineering undergraduate degree awarded after completion of four years of academic study in engineering field. It is offered in many disciplines .

In simple words, we can say that “B.Tech is that UG course after which you can become an Engineer”.

Bachelor of Technology is also known as Bachelor of Engineering (B.E) in many institutions. Study curriculum is same for both B.Tech and B.E. so don’t be confused in names.

Bachelor of Technology (BTech) is a professional undergraduate engineering degree programme awarded to candidates after they complete four years of study in the field. Engineering is one of the most popular courses in India and there are many institutes that offer the course to aspiring students.

The term engineering comes from Latin word Ingenium means ‘Cleverness and Ingeniare means ‘to create’.

There is a huge craze among the young students for Engineering. Mostly Science stream students want to become Engineer and opt B.Tech after the completion of 12^th.

What designation will be provided after B.Tech?

One who have successfully completed B.Tech degree in any of its discipline will be designated as “Engineer”. If you are specialized in computer science and engineering then, your job title will be ‘Software Engineer‘, those specialized in civil engineering will be titled as “Civil Engineer”.

Course

The Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) is the 4 year full-time undergraduate course leading to the engineering degree. The duration of undergraduate engineering course varies from country to country. Many colleges/Universities of India offers B.Tech programme in various disciplines.
