Thank you

If you are from BIPC stream and SC category then you are eligible for government college through EAPCET in agriculture and food technology course in andra pradesg , colleges like ABGRAU ,SVVU and DR YASTHU offer B.Sc. Agriculture and food technology

Hey there! If you’re aiming for B.Sc. Food Technology at JNTU Kakinada, I’ve got some news: after looking into it, it seems they actually offer B.Tech in Food Technology (or Food Engineering) instead of B.Sc. I think there might be a mix-up, but don’t worry, I’ll guide you through.

For B.Tech Food Technology, you’ll need to have taken the AP EAMCET 2025 exam. The results were declared on June 8, 2025, so check your score if you’ve appeared for it. The counselling process, where seats are allotted based on your rank and preferences, starts in the first week of July 2025 . Make sure to register and choose JNTU Kakinada as an option if you’re eligible.

Eligibility and Course Details

You’ll need to have passed Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (or Biology/Biotechnology) with at least 45% marks (40% for reserved categories) to be eligible for AP EAMCET. The B.Tech program is a four-year course under the School of Food Technology, focusing on food science, processing, and quality control, with modern labs and experienced faculty.

JNTUK Kakinada does not offer B.Sc. Food Technology course. It offers B.Tech in Food Technology through AP EAPCET exam. For B.Sc. Food Technology, you can try other universities in Andhra Pradesh.

hi,

If you’re looking for government colleges that offer Food Technology through lateral entry, there are a few good ones you should check out. Colleges like NIFTEM Thanjavur (Tamil Nadu), Jadavpur University (West Bengal), and CFTRI Mysore are really solid. Tamil Nadu Agricultural University and CAEPHT in Sikkim are also known for their Food Tech programs.

For lateral entry, you usually need to have a diploma in a related field. Admission is mostly through state-level counselling or entrance exams like JELET (West Bengal), LEET (Haryana), or other state-specific ones. Make sure to check the official websites of these colleges for exact cutoff lists and eligibility.
