Hey Gupt Priyanshu,

Engineering is a "science", dealing more with theoretical concepts & principles; technology deals more with the application of these theories for practical purposes. But, both B.E. & B.Tech courses offered by various engineering colleges/ institutes, have similar curriculum more or less. Both degrees are valued equally by prospective employers. What matters more is the reputation of the engineering college from where you obtain your B.E/ B.Tech degree.

B.Tech is offered by government institutes and B.E. is offered by private institutes.

There is absolutely no truth in this. Institutes like Netaji Subash Institute of Technology, University of Mumbai (Department of Chemical Technology) which are government institutes offer a BE degree and there are many private institutes that offer a B.Tech degree

No industrial training in BE or B.Tech

In both, BE and B.Tech, industrial training is compulsory after semester 6.

B.Tech or BE is valued more than the other

All the best!

Dear Aspirants/Guardians

Difference between BE and Btech is that BE is focused on theory and Btech is technology based.

All the very best and good luck.

Hii..

The only difference that matters is this:

"The B.Tech course is somewhat more practically intensive than the BE course which is more theoretical"

The difference (which is quite minor) between the two degrees can be understood from their names itself, Engineering Vs. Technology.

Misconceptions

* B.Tech is offered by government institutes and B.E. is offered by private institutes.

Your performance matters more than your degree title. Neither is preferred over the other.

Hey aspirant

Research has shown that engineering remains the most sought after under graduate course in India (this was published by the National Council of Advanced Economic Research). The many institutes that offer under-graduate courses offer either B.E. (Bachelor of Engineering) or B.Tech (Bachelor of Technology). One of the most commonly asked question by engineering aspirants is the difference between the two degrees.

B.Tech course is somewhat more practically intensive than the BE course which is more theoretical.The difference (which is quite minor) between the two degrees can be understood from their names itself, Engineering Vs. Technology.

Thanks.

All the best!

The only difference between B.E. and B.Tech. is :
"B.Tech course is more practical while B.E. is more about theory of subject"
B.E. means Bachelor of Engineering and B.Tech. means Bachelor of Technology.
The difference can be seen with Engineering vs Technology, as Engineering is a science dealing with theoretical concepts and principles while technology deals with an application of these theories for practical purposes.
Both degrees are valued equally in India by companies or for post-graduation. The only thing that matters is the institute through which candidate is pursuing B.Tech./B.E.

All the best!

Hello Priyanshu,

B.Tech course is somewhat more practically intensive than the BE course which is more theoretical. The difference (which is quite minor) between the two degrees can be understood from their names itself, Engineering Vs. Technology .

Engineering is a "science", dealing more with theoretical concepts & principles; technology deals more with the application of these theories for practical purposes. But, both B.E. & B.Tech courses offered by various engineering colleges/ institutes, have similar curriculum more or less. Both degrees are valued equally by prospective employers. What matters more is the reputation of the engineering college from where you obtain your B.E/ B.Tech degree.

Hope it Helps :)
