Is B.TECH (INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY) eligible for MPPSC State Engineering Services 2020 ?

Shubham Dhane 20th Dec, 2020

Hello,

The basic eligibility criteria require the candidate to possess a degree in mechanical/ civil engineering from a recognized university. Students in the final year of Civil/ Mechanical engineering can also apply for MPPSC State Engineering Services Prelims on provisional basis . The age criteria of MPPSC State Engineering Services Prelims states that candidates must be between 21-25 years. So no B.Tech students in Information Technology course is not eligible for MPSPC State Engineering Services 2020. Madhya Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPSC) conducts the MPPSC State Engineering Service Exam in three phases - prelims, mains and interview. Candidates between 21 to 40 years of age and must hold a Bachelor's Degree in Civil/ Mechanical Engineering.

priyaankasarkar Student Expert 26th Oct, 2019

Dear Mohnish, familiarize yourself with topics like Structure Analysis, Structure Design, Construction planning and management, Environmental Engineering, Water resources engineering, Transportation Engineering and Geotechnical Engineering. Practise previous question papers. Also because Paper 1 is about General Awareness and MP in specific, keep yourself updated by reading news papers. Also prepare yourself in Hindi and English Languages like vocabulary, grammar etc. Prepare more of MP History, Geography, Art, Culture, Economy, Political Science etc.

can other state student aplicable from OBC

priyaankasarkar Student Expert 29th Sep, 2019

Dear Ganesh, you haven't mentioned which entrance exam are you enquiring about. Neverthless, if you are appearing for an entrance exam of a State which you do not hold a domicile of, you cannot avail reservation of that State. For example, if you belong to Gujarat and you want to appear for Maharashtra entrance exam, you are non local to Maharashtra and you cannot avail their State reservations even if you belong to OBC,SC,ST. In this case, if you do not belong to MP, you cannot avail OBC benefits of MP.
