Since you completed 12th with commerce, you can get into Mechanical Engineering through these options:
1. Study PCM via NIOS → Pass Physics, Chemistry, and Math, then appear for JEE or state exams.
2. Diploma in Mechanical Engineering → Join a 3-year diploma, then take lateral entry into B.Tech 2nd year.
3. B.Sc. + Lateral Entry → Do B.Sc. (Maths/Physics), then apply for B.Tech 2nd year in some universities.
4. Private Universities → Some offer B.Tech with a bridge course for non-science students.
The diploma route is the fastest.
Hello Tanish,
If you have completed your 12th with commerce, then you are not eligible for direct admission in a regular B.Tech or B.E. Mechanical Engineering course. These courses need Physics, Chemistry, and Maths (PCM) in 12th.
But here are a few options you can think about:
Do Diploma in Mechanical Engineering – Some states allow commerce students in diploma courses. After completing the diploma, you can try for lateral entry into B.Tech 2nd year.
Do 12th again with PCM – If you are really serious about mechanical engineering, you can do 12th again with science stream (PCM) and then apply for engineering entrance exams like JEE, state CET, etc.
Other related courses – You can also go for some short-term mechanical-related technical courses (like CAD, CAM) or other fields where commerce students are eligible.
Hope it helps !
