Hello Sir, I have completed my Diploma in Computer Science. I want to pursue Engineering in ECE. So Can I change my Branch to ECE after completing Diploma in Computer Science? Is it possible to do so? Please suggest.

No, it's not possible to change your branch to ECE after completion of your Diploma course in Computer Science.

Being a Diploma holder in Electronics and Communication Engineering, you can get admission only in B.E/ B.Tech ECE course and you can't take admission in Computer Science Engineering course. Candidates who have completed Diploma in Engineering course can get direct admission in second year of B.E/ B.Tech course through Lateral Entry admission process.

To get lateral entry admission in B.E/B.Tech course, you have to appear in Lateral Entry Entrance Test (LEET) conducted by your respective state board of technical education. If you qualify the LEET examination, you need to participate in counselling process and based on your examination rank, you will be allotted a seat in the college which you are eligible to get direct admission in second year of B.E/ B.Tech ECE course.
