Hey! Since you have a Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering and no diploma in Civil Engineering, direct admission to B.Tech/BE in Civil through lateral entry is usually not possible. You can either pursue a full B.Tech in Civil (possibly through part-time or distance programs for working professionals) or consider M.Tech in Civil if the university allows Mechanical Engineering graduates. Another option is to take online or certification courses in Civil Engineering to gain skills without a full degree.
