Hi Sir, I have given the Board exam of 12th standard and I will clear the exam with good percentage of marks. I want to become a Civil Engineer. I don't know what I should do. Please let me know how I can become a Civil Engineer?

Hello,
As you want to become a Civil Engineer, first, you'll need a bachelor's degree in civil engineering or a civil engineering specialty. Your degree will take four years to complete, and will include courses in math, engineering mechanics, statistics, and fluid dynamics, among others.
There are lot of good colleges and universities in India where you can pursue your B.Tech or B.E.. You must appear for JEE Mains and Advance after 12th class. If you're able to clear these exams, you can definitely take admission in one of the famous Universities of India from where it'll be very easy for you to get a good job as a Civil Engineer.
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thank You....

Hi,

First of all try to crack entrance examination of AIEEE or IIT. These two entrance examinations will help you in getting the best engineering colleges in India and Seeking admission to course B.tech (bachelor of technology).

When you get admission in any of the reputed engineering college then choose "Civil" branch among all other available branches offered by B.Tech.
B.Tech (bachelor of technology), this degree will be of 4 years duration with 8 semesters and each semester of 6 months.
You should have an overall aggregate of 70% marks at the end of your B.tech to grab a good job in future and becoming a successful civil engineer.

Good luck
