See for being an IAS officer there is no need of being an engineer or from any professional field. The only requirement is that you have to qualify all the tiers of UPSC CSE with good marks and you must have a graduation. Now as you are interested in Engineering then its always better to choose the best.

Among the two you have provided I would recommend you to go for VIT CHENNAI.

VIT have a very well organized curriculum such that the curriculum provides adequate skills to work in industry as well as to pursue academia. Also the faculties are very well experienced and are active in research. VIT offers a very good rate of placement about 91%. Thus if you want to get admitted in an engineering course then I would say its better to go for VIT CHENNAI. VIT CHENNAI have very good infrastructure which is really  good fact for science students.

** I would highly recommend you to conduct a research by yourself. If you find my facts relevant then only go for it , else take the decision  which will be the best for you.

Hello,

There are certain parameters under which only you can leave airforce. Firstly you can't leave without serving atleast 7 years. However if you can clear all the phases of UPSC and your name comes up in the final list then you can visit IAF headquarters and convince your seniors and then you can take NOC and then finally you can resign air force and can join you new service.

I hope this helps.

There are no such obligations you have to be a Btech in order to be a IAS. For UPSC CSE you need to be a graduate. You can be a graduate in any subject. So if you don't like physics and chemistry and if you have no interest in the subject then why will you waste your time. Instead you can go for a general course which will end in 3 years like BA/BSc/BCom after your 12th. That way you can learn your subject of interest as well as focus on the UPSC CSE preparations.
