Hello Student,
The Bachelor of Technology (commonly abbreviated as B.Tech. or B.Tech.(Hons)
students generally ask about the difference between B.Tech. & BE
There is very little difference between B.Tech. & BE today,
BE is Bachelor of Engineering and B Tech is Bachelor of Technology.
B Tech is said to be more skill and practical oriented study of Engineering and BE is knowledge and Theory based ,
There was a misconception earlier that there was more scope for students who had a B Tech degree than those having BE.
But the fact is that the future and scope of both Bachelor of Engineering and Bachelor of Technology are the same.
Thanks & Regards
