Hi Aditya,

Yes, an aspirant can pursue Computer Science Engineering in a Central University through CUET UG, but it depends on whether the university offers B.Tech in CSE as part of its CUET UG course list. Many central universities (like University of Hyderabad, Central University of Rajasthan, and others) have started admitting students for technical courses through CUET, but not all do. You’ll need to check the CUET UG information bulletin and the individual university prospectus for eligibility, subject combinations, and minimum scores. Generally, you need Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics in 12th and a competitive CUET percentile to get CSE. Also, remember that engineering seats in central universities are limited, so higher scores improve your chances. Start preparing with the CUET syllabus aligned to NTA guidelines.

Thank you,

Yes bro, you can get B.Tech admission in certain Central Universities via CUET UG—because a few of them do offer engineering courses based on CUET. But this isn't the case with all CUs; many still require entrance exams like JEE Main. You'll need to check the specific course list and eligibility criteria on each university’s CUET page.


So, do this:


1. Visit the official CUET UG portal and go to the “Universities → Central University” tab.



2. Find your chosen Central University.



3. Check if they list B.Tech or CSE under the CUET-UG programs.




And don’t forget to see what subject combo they require—like PCM + a language + general test combo—so you fit their criteria perfectly.

Good afternoon. Yes, but only a few central universities offer Computer Science or related engineering programs through CUET-UG, and most of them do not have a traditional 4-year B.Tech CSE in their CUET-UG admissions list.

CUET-UG is mainly for general undergraduate courses (arts, science, commerce, and some professional degrees).

Engineering seats in central universities are regulated under JoSAA/CSAB counselling based on JEE Main scores.

Through CUET-UG, you can study Computer Science as a B.Sc./BCA in a central university, but not a 4-year B.Tech in CSE — that requires JEE Main.
