It's a Question of your Career!

Finishing a diploma in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, you can opt for a course in Aerospace Engineering.

You can consider lateral entry: Many engineering colleges give students who have a diploma the option to enter the 2nd year straight in a similar B.Tech program. Learn whether the college takes in students for Aerospace Engineering using lateral entry.

If you wish to join Aerospace Engineering but it isn’t offered as a lateral entry, try joining either Mechanical or Electrical Engineering and move to Aerospace Engineering later.

You can be required to attend an entrance exam such as the state’s lateral entry test or a counseling session based on the marks you receive in your diploma.

You might look into private universities: They often let diploma holders be more flexible about starting in courses connected to aerospace.

If you cannot start with aerospace engineering lateral entry, you can apply after your bachelor’s degree in a related field.

Hello,

Yes you are eligible for admission if you are from science stream. You are eligible for direct admission into 1st year in most private and government diploma colleges. Also, you can get lateral entry into 2nd year in some states (if you have studied Maths and Physics in 12th) – subject to state norms.

Hope this helps. All the best!

IITs do NOT accept diploma holders directly into B.Tech courses.

• To be eligible, you must:

  • Pass Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry, and Math .

  • Then appear for JEE Main , qualify, and be among the top candidates to take JEE Advanced .

So, if you joined diploma after 10th, you must first complete 12th , then follow the regular JEE path.

For NITs (National Institutes of Technology):

• NITs also do not offer lateral entry into B.Tech through diploma.

• Admission is through JEE Main , which requires a Class 12 qualification with PCM.

Some NITs offer lateral entry into 2nd year B.Tech through other programs but not via diploma holders in India .
