Yes, if you are a diploma holders in Mechatronics and Industrial Automation then you eligible to apply for higher education such as B.Tech through lateral entry. You can usually enter directly into the second year of engineering programs related to your diploma stream, like Mechanical, Electronics, or Mechatronics itself.

Admission is generally done through state-level lateral entry entrance exams or through college-specific admission process.

Wishing you the best !
