Hello Kiran

You can definitely shift from B.Tech (Mining Engineering) to M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering in most colleges in India but the eligibility criteria depends upon institution to institution. So check with each institute before applying for the same.

Thank You!!!

Hello,

Yes, you can apply for the M.Tech in mechanical engineering from B.Tech in mining just by appearing in the GATE exam in the mechanical engineering paper and qualifying with a good score that makes you eligible to apply for the M.Tech programs in mechanical engineering.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello Aspirant,

That's not possible. The M.Tech. degree builds upon the B.Tech. specialization. You can't switch from a B.Tech. in Mining Engineering to an M.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering because they are distinct fields of study. Your undergraduate degree in mining doesn't provide the foundational knowledge required for a master's in mechanical engineering. To pursue an M.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering, you would need a B.Tech. in a closely related field, like mechanical, production, or automotive engineering.

There is high possibilities of changing your b.tech mining engineering to Mtech mechanical branches based on the university and institutions they may require your entrance exam to participate some other private institution will offer your directly seat if you are looking for any other specific college look at their official website for more updates
