The All India Council of Technical Education (ACITE) has announced that technical university allows students to take lateral admission to BTech/BE by another disciplinary branch. This facility was not well aware by the students before. It does exist but due to low information, it is not that well introduced to the students. 


In past times of early 1950-60, the students used to complete their engineering with mechanicals BE and later on, it could do engineering in BE Electricals. But with now trend  BTECH is completely a different stream and to pursue into different streams student had to study all the repeated course that has already done in  BTech.
