Hi,

No, it is not possible to get degree in Both simultaneously, you can't do diploma and B.Tech course simultaneously .You have few options to add this both courses in your academic curriculum :

  • You can do diploma after 12th in Electrical and after that you may do B.Tech through lateral entry
  • You can do diploma at 10 th and without 12th you can pursue B.Tech thorough lateral entry exams .


If you want to get a job early in Electrical domain, then you may choose diploma otherwise , for a better placement with a good annual package , you can pursue B.Tech

However some college provide a Minor degree along with major degree so you can choose minor course in your college and then you will get both the degree but minor in one, among top institutes IIT follow such pattern.

According to UGC a student can pursue two degrees at the same time, but provided one degree should be in regular mode and other in open and distance learning or online. But since, UGC-AIC TE-DEB do not recognize diploma in engineering or any other technical course like BE/ B. Tech through distance education. They have also issued a notification declaring technical distance education invalid. So, you cannot pursue a diploma and a B.Tech degree at the same time.

Further, You can do diploma in electricals and get a lateral entry in B.Tech Electrical Engineering.
