You are definitely eligible for the Indian Engineering Service entrance exam. The exam is conducted for jobs in various government departments. These departments are dedicated for various fields like infrastructure, telecommunications and even defense.

Indian Engineering Service is very reputed entrance exam. But at the same time it is also quite a difficult exam to crack. Which means that you will have to study very hard to clear the Indian Engineering Service.

The Indian Engineering Service is basically conducted in 4 branches of B.Tech course. These branches are:-

Civil Engineering

Mechanical Engineering

Electronics and Communication Engineering

Electrical Engineering


Since you belong to Electronics and Communications, you are eligible for the exam. But I will recommend that you stick to the same branch for the Indian Engineering Service. Go for IES exam in ECE. Do not change the branch to Electrical Engineering.

In the Indian Engineering Service, the course for the exam is taken from the 4 branches mentioned above. If you went for exam in Electrical Engineering, you will have to prepare for the course from same branch.

It will be very difficult to do so and frankly makes no sense since you belong to Electronics and Communications. Preparing for the Indian Engineering Service exam for Electronics and Communications will be far more comfortable for you. Therefore I will urge you to stick to ECE.
