Hello there,

Yes, you can pursue an M.Tech in Agriculture after completing your engineering in IT, but it may depend on the university's eligibility criteria. Many programs in agricultural engineering accept candidates from diverse engineering backgrounds. However, some universities may require relevant foundational knowledge or prerequisites in agricultural or life sciences.

Check specific university requirements for M.Tech in Agriculture or Agricultural Engineering. You may need to clear entrance exams like GATE in a relevant subject, as some universities base admissions on these scores.


I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

While it's possible to explore interdisciplinary fields, directly switching from IT to a core agriculture M.Tech program might be a bit of a leap.

A B.Tech in IT provides a strong foundation in technology, but it might not align perfectly with the specific knowledge and skills required for a traditional M.Tech in Agriculture.

However, you could consider these options:

  1. Specialized M.Tech Programs: Look for M.Tech programs that combine technology and agriculture, such as Agricultural Engineering or Agricultural Biotechnology. These programs could be a good fit for your IT background.
  2. Certificate Courses or Diplomas: Consider taking specialized certificate courses or diplomas in agricultural technology or related fields to bridge the gap between your IT background and agricultural studies.
  3. Work Experience: Gaining relevant work experience in an agricultural or agritech company could help you transition into a more agriculture-focused role.

Ultimately, the best path for you will depend on your specific interests, career goals, and the opportunities available. It's always a good idea to consult with academic advisors or professionals in the field to get personalized guidance.

If you have a Bachelor's degree in Agricultural Engineering then only you can do m.tech in agriculture otherwise its not possible because IT and agriculture both are different fields their work industry is also different.


Moreover, candidates who clear entrance exams such as JEE Main, ICAR AIEEA, or state-level engineering entrance exams are eligible for m.tech agriculture in Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kharagpur,Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Roorkee,Amity University, Noida,Aligarh Muslim University (AMU). Etc.


However if you are still interested You can apply for different streeam in engineering through Gate score in similar branch.
