with no prior experience of programming or coding ,can i do a btech in ece or etc ?
Dear Applicant,
Yes you could certainly go for it. It you feel you cant do programming try to read abit about it earlier. C or C++ would be the best option to start off with there 2 a the very first languages and c++ is derived from C so no worries with little understanding you will able to pull it of. Programming is based alot on maths and logic if these 2 things are very much well versed in you specifically maths you dont need to worry.
The skills required for Ecs is usually Complex problem-solving skills and a methodical mind. Critical thinking. Strong interest in technology. Aptitude for maths. Which you will gain automatically by learning C Language...
Hope this helps. All the best.
