Hello Dear Student,
If you need to support your family financially, doing a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering followed by Lateral Entry B.Tech is usually the more practical option.
Main advantage:
- After the 3-year diploma , you can start earning through technician, apprentice, or junior engineer-type jobs.
- Later, you can continue B.Tech through lateral entry while working.
This path gives:
- earlier job opportunities,
- practical skills, and
- gradual career growth with less financial pressure.
Hope it helps!
