The eligibility criteria for pursuing Electrical Engineering generally include the completion of a higher secondary education (12th grade) from a recognized board, with subjects in Physics, Mathematics, and English. Students must secure a minimum aggregate score in these subjects, usually around 50-60%, depending on the university or institution.
Admission to most undergraduate Electrical Engineering courses is through entrance tests, such as the ones held in India named JEE or some state-level and national-level exams. For a postgraduate program like M.Tech in Electrical Engineering, candidates must be qualified with a Bachelor's degree either in Electrical Engineering or from a close related field of study, in addition to the cut-off scores determined or entrance examination requirements for that particular course.
Some may also award admission based on academic performance, personal interviews, and previous qualifications. Similarly, some universities have age limits for those applying to such institutions, hence one should look at the various rules surrounding the institution before making an application.
