Hello,
Dear student
The answer to your query is yes absolutely, you can crack civil services after your b tech course gets completed. There is no any kind of restriction in USPC CSE exam. Any one at any age not more than 32 can appear and with hardwork and as well as smart-work can crack civil services
To be named there are many IAS officers who are from engineering background Shubham kumar, jivani karthik, Kanishk kataria, Akshat jain and many more.
These all can be your inspiration.
Wth that I would also like to suggest you to gear up yourself and start the preperation from the first day as USPC is known to be one of the toughest examination if the country you need to put all your efforts into it.
But starting the right with right study materials is something you should look after. There are hell lot of materials in the market, on the internet which are just irrelevant and unnecessary that can cause you a huge loss in your preparation.
Here are some important point you should surely keep in mind before starting your preparation.
- Do not fall for any irrelevant materials.
- Go through the syllabus thoroughly.
- Set your goals, targets and plan your day according to it.
- Do not use lot of books for 1 subject stick to 1-2 max books for your reference. Limit your study material.
- Revision Revision and revision the most important thing.

Is it true that many civil servants are Engineers and Doctors?
Yes, it's true as much as the syllabus of UPSC is more humanities oriented, the truth is the toppers come from as diverse backgrounds as that of medical/engineering/commerce/science, if you look at previous year toppers then yes , you will find many medical and engineering graduates, and the eligibility criteria itself states that candidates need to pass graduation in any discipline from a recognized University, candidates in final year too are eligible to apply, they are required to attain 21 years as on 1st August of the appearing year, and you will also find medical science and engineering as optional subjects, though in later case the choices may be limited, but eventually what matters for every successful candidate is their single minded focus, dedication and perseverance which help them sail through this tough exam.
