Hello,

To become an IAS officer there is no single course that you have to do. You need to have completed you graduation. So Candidates must hold a graduation degree in any discipline from a reputed university. After this you need to qualify the Union Public Service Commission Civil Services Exam. The exam itself is structured into three parts – the Preliminary (Civil Services Aptitude Test – CSAT), Main Exam, and finally the Interview.

You can take B.Tech and then go for UPSC exam. More over subjects like  Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering. are offered as optional subjects.

So first complete your graduation and in the meantime read more about the eligibilty criteria like the number of attempts, age limit, etc.

I  have shared a link with you below where you can read about the eligibility criteria: https://competition.careers360.com/articles/upsc-ias-eligibility-criteria#IAS-Eligibility-Criteria-2021--Educational-Qualification


Inculcate the habit of reading the daily newspaper and keep yourself aware of  latest happenings in the country and the world.

Work on your interpersonal skills and communication skills. Your personality is tested during the interview.

Good Luck
