Can I join B.Tech after Polytechnic?

Hi Bhavya,

Yes, you can join B.Tech program after completing polytechnic in the diploma of engineering. You can take admission in B.Tech through two examinations. One is through lateral entry entrance examination and other is engineering entrance examination.

If you take admission through lateral entry examination after polytechnic then you will get admission directly into second year of engineering. The Lateral entry examination is state level examination. According to your rank, you will be able to choose the college from your state at the time of counselling. In most of the engineering colleges there is reserved seat for lateral entry. But in IITs, there is no lateral entry seat.

You can also take admission in B.Tech through engineering entrance examination. For this you have to appear in engineering entrance examination like JEE or any other state level engineering entrance examination. But through this examination you will be able to take admission in 1st year of B.Tech and might be chances that you can get admission in IIT’s or NIT’s but for that you need to prepare.
But I think it's better for you to try first for lateral entry examination in this way you will be able to save your one year. If you don’t get admission in good college through lateral entry, then only you may try to take admission through engineering entrance examination

Dear Aspirant,

Definitely! You can join BTech / BE based on your polytechnic course. Polytechnic means Diploma Engineering. According to the UGC and AICTE rules, you can get admission to the second year of degree engineering based on your performance in Diploma Engineering (Polytechnic). 

I am happy that you wish to complete your degree and not be satisfied only on Diploma. Doing a Degree will open many doors for you and your chances of getting a good job also increase. Just ensure that you get good percentage in degree as well.

Which engineering have you done Diploma in? What is your percentage in Diploma? 

Do give me a call if you wish to ask me anything more or have any other doubt. 

Best wishes
