Yes you can. After completing Diploma from Mechanical Engineering you are eligible to purser BE in Mining engineering .There are many institutions in India that offers Lateral Entry provision to Diploma holders. Remember that IITs and NITs do not offer lateral entry provision.

Hello, Aspirant.


You can definitely pursue mining engineering after Mechanical engineering, but you must first pass the GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering).


You will be able to do it if you score high enough (cut off of the colleges).
