Courses and Details
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.
For admissions, the most common BTech entrance examinations are JEE Main and JEE Advanced. Along with these national level entrance examinations, there are many state and private level entrance examinations that the students can attempt for admission to the course. The basic eligibility criteria for BTech is class 12 with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. However, there are additional criteria in every entrance exam and institute. Some of the institutes also conduct admission to their courses on merit basis i.e. based on marks scored by candidates in their class 12 board exams.
Bachelor of Engineering or BE is a 4 year-long bachelor’s degree that deals with the study of scientific theory concepts, and experiments in the field of Engineering.

BArch (Bachelor of Architecture) is an undergraduate degree in the field of architecture. This five-year full-time programme is a blend of theoretical and practical knowledge for students to learn the art of planning, designing and constructing physical structures of various kinds. From ideating to mapping and overseeing the construction, a qualified architect is involved at every stage of any construction project.
Aeronautical Engineering focuses on the science, technology, testing, design, development, building, and research of aircraft. This course trains engineers in the design, construction, testing, and analysis of commercial and military airplanes and missiles. Candidates can pursue aeronautical engineering courses after completing Class 10+2 and enrolling in bachelor's degrees. There are diploma, UG, PG, and doctorate courses in aeronautical engineering available. Admission to this course is done via an entrance exam and on a merit basis. To pursue this course, candidates must sit for engineering exams like JEE Main, JEE Advanced, AMECET, IISAT, etc.
Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including public works such as roads, bridges, canals, dams, airports, sewage systems, pipelines, structural components of buildings, and railways.
Mechanical engineering is the study of physical machines that may involve force and movement. It is an engineering branch that combines engineering physics and mathematics principles with materials science, to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering branches.
