For IAS purpose I will recommend any Bachelor course in social science stream

Alternatively, Bachelors in Public Administration/Public Policy is a good choice as “public administration” is the main job of an IAS officer.

  • History.
  • Economy.

Im a engineering student when can I apply for ias exam????

Hrisheekesh Singh 4th Feb, 2020

Hi Monika,

Yes, of course. You are eligible and can apply for that. However, you can only apply for the UPSC Civil Services exam when you will be in your final year or would have been completed your engineering degree.

According to the eligibility criteria for UPSC Civil Services Exam (for IAS), you have to either complete graduation or equivalent degree or you should be in your final year or graduation in any of the field.

So, yes, you can apply for this and you will be shocked to hear that most of the UPSC Exam toppers were ENGINEERS only. This is because Engineering is a professional degree in which you come to recognize about your sitting power and other study techniques.

I hope this helps you.

Good Luck for being an IAS !.

I am appearing in class 12th this year and i want to clear cse with a very good rank to become ias. My question is that whether i have to go for iit or not. if not the which stream i choose in graduation.

Khushi 25th Dec, 2019

Hi

You need to first have clarity in career choice. Doing CSE and being an IAS are two opposite choices which have no similarities. If you have interest in both then list out advantages and diasvantages of choosing a career which you wont e using in future.

In either cases ,if you want to be an ias then choose a course that will help you and make it easier for you while preparing for upsc.

Couses like

  • Economics hons
  • Political science hons
  • Sociology hons

These courses will help you in preparing beforhand for UPSC

If you want to do computer engineering then prepare for mains and advance right now. You may not know where you interest might divert in coming future.

But I wouldnt suggest you to go into engineering if at the end you want to give service to the nation.

Hope this helps

All the best

I am in B.tech 1st year ECE student.I want to be an IAS officer but Is this good for me very first i will go for IES or GATE and then for IAS.What i do i am confused?

pdwords Student Expert 29th Jan, 2020
Hello,

The only eligibility criteria for UPSC is to have attained 21 years age and have passed graduation in any discipline from a recognized university, even final year students are eligible for this.

Now,coming to your question you can appear for UPSC even in your final year as I said. If you've decided for once and all you'll appear for UPSC,then you can go ahead with this choice directly.

As you come from science background, you'll be well acquainted with the syllabus for GATE or even IES for that matter while in UPSC you've to study a lot of humanities subject such as economics, history,geography, polity etc science will be there but in limited way.

It all boils down to your vision why do you want to go for gate,is it for higher education or jobs, and are you looking at it as a part of work experience to apply for upsc later.
