Hi, I am Roopesh. I am 21 years old, I have diploma in mechanical engineering qualification. I am very much interested to become a CBI officer. Can you please tell me the procedure? My height is 176, and weight is 80. Is it possible to join CBI?

As per my knowledge Diploma candidate are not eligible for CBI exam.

For joining CBI you need to appear for CGPE exam. Which is stands for Combined Graduate preliminary Exam.

To eligible ghis exam you should be finished your graduation in any stream with good percentage of mark in recognized university.

No, you cannot become an Officer in Central Bureau of Investigation department after completion of Diploma in Mechanical Engineering course. The basic educational qualification required for becoming an officer in CBI department is Bachelor Degree or Graduation in any discipline from a recognized university.

As Diploma in Mechanical Engineering course is not equivalent to B.E/ B.Tech in Diploma in Mechanical Engineering, you are not eligible to become CBI officer. I suggest you to pursue or complete Graduation first in order to be eligible for this recruitment. You can appear in CGL Examination that is conducted by Staff Selection Commission (SSC) in order to apply for this recruitment.

To become a CBI( Central Bureau Of investigation) officer the candidate who have completed his/her graduation from any recognized University are eligible and those who are in final year are also eligible.
Physical requirement:
Eyesight:
Distant vision-6/6 one 6/9 other side.

Chest 76cms for men and there is no such requirement for female candidates.
Height 165cms-men
Height 155cms-women. The weight should be according to your height, however minimum weight requirement is 48kgs.
The candidate needs to appear for SSC CGL exams and UPSC exam to become a CBI officer. Selected candidates will be eligible to appear for main exam then for an interview round.
The age of the candidate must be between 20 to 27 years.
