Bachelor of Engineering

Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) is a four-year undergraduate programme treated as equivalent to the Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) degree in India, with the name used mainly by certain universities such as Anna University and several state universities. Regulated under All India Council for Technical Education norms, it combines classroom teaching in mathematics, science and engineering fundamentals with laboratory work, design projects and an industrial internship, before specialising in a chosen branch such as mechanical, civil, electrical, electronics or computer engineering. Admission is generally through Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, followed by an entrance exam such as JEE Main or a state-level engineering test. B.E. suits students aiming for careers in engineering, manufacturing, construction, IT and related industries.
