Yes, as a B.Tech Electrical Engineering student, you can choose Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (DA) as your first paper in the GATE exam. GATE allows candidates to choose papers outside their core branch if they meet the paper-wise eligibility. However, DA is a bit coding and math-heavy, so make sure you’re comfortable with programming, linear algebra, and data handling. If you're interested in AI/ML fields or higher studies in that area, DA is a good choice for you.
