If you have any engineering from above 4 branches or M.Sc(Electonics/Wireless Communication/Radio Physics/Radio Engineering)You must have a bachelor's degree in engineering from a recognized university.Your age should be between 21 to 30years.As per my knowledge then only you can write IES even if you are in final year.
