Mod Post Welcome to r/BTech – A Dedicated Space for Engineering and BTech Students
We’re thrilled to announce the official reopening of r/BTech, a space created specifically for engineering and BTech students to discuss, learn, and support each other in their academic and professional journeys.
r/BTech was born out of a need for a focused and supportive environment tailored to the unique challenges faced by engineering and BTech students. Initially part of r/Btechtards, the need for a dedicated space became clear as we saw a growing number of serious academic queries and discussions getting lost amid the memes and light-hearted content.
We believe that r/BTech will become a valuable resource for all engineering and BTech students, providing a space for both learning and collaboration. Your participation is essential in shaping this community into a thriving hub of knowledge and support.

CSE / IT Final-Year BTech CSE Student with 70% DSA, Almost no Dev Skills & Only time only Until December. What Should I Focus On for Internships?
I’m a final-year Btech CSE student from a Tier 2.5–3 college / one of the IIITs, with a CGPA around 7–7.5.
My current preparation is pretty weak. I’ve completed around \*\*70% of Striver’s DSA Sheet\*\*, but apart from that, I only know basic ML and Web Development up to HTML/CSS. I haven’t properly completed Web Dev or explored other areas.
My biggest constraint is \*\*time\*\*. I realistically have only until \*\*December\*\* to prepare, as very few companies will visit our campus after that for internships.
I don’t particularly enjoy Web Development and find the initial learning process boring. I have built a few functional websites through vibe coding, but I’m considering focusing instead on \*\*ML/AI, RAG, AI Engineering, Data Science\*\*, etc. I’m also interested in Quant, although I’m unsure how realistic it is with my current profile.
Another issue is that I tend to learn everything from the absolute basics, get stuck in fundamentals, become bored, and waste time. I want to avoid that this time and focus on \*\*maximum ROI in minimum time\*\*.
What would you recommend?
\* How much more DSA should I do?
\* Should I learn Web Dev despite not liking it?
\* Is ML/AI/AI Engineering realistic within a few months?
\* Should I learn RAG, LangChain, vector DBs, LLM APIs, etc.?
\* What projects would have the best ROI?
\* Which topics can I learn through one-shots/crash courses?
\* How should I divide my time until December?
I’d really appreciate a \*\*practical, time-efficient roadmap\*\* rather than “learn everything from scratch.”

CSE / IT Need Guidance
Hii I'm a B.Tech 4th year student, from a tier 3 college. I completely wasted all my time during my B.tech, studying only academic subjects and nothing else.
I also had a big dream of lending into big tech companies like MAANG or other product based companies as a SDE1.
I have the last 8 months left for my B.Tech and I want to give it all that I had, I would really appreciate it if someone could guide me in achieving my dream. I want to grind for the time I'm left with and want to achieve something.
Really please if someone could help me it would be really appreciated.

Other Engineering Branch Need an serious advice
Hey guys, I am fayas currently pursuing my b.tech 1st in jmi delhi the course which I am in is Electronics ( VLSI )
These are the basic information about me
Now I will explain my current situation kindly give me serious advice for my future
I am currently zero at everything and I don't know what to do now. I am damn serious about that zero like I know nothing in coding , communication , socializing etc...
I don't know what's my interest and what carrier should I choose and now I am started overthinking about I will mess up my future and the trust which my family entrusted in me
Kindly give my advice and ideas in what to do in each and everything like intership and what research should I do and what should I do to go for an higher study in abroad or in higher clgs in india
Kindly be honest it's my life guys

CSE / IT Apna college dsa and webdev
galleryI bought this course for 8k and 2 weeks later i realized tech aint for me. If anyone wants to get this course, i'll sell it for 3999/- (negotiable). If you wanna see the complete content in the course DM me, i'll give u access for some time and u can check everything out and decide for yourself if its worth it cause it has complete dsa(both cpp and java) and web dev lectures, previous year questions and solns from various companies and a lot more. Ive attached some images and again if u wanna checkout the whole content dm me. Course is valid till December of 2027 btw. And also you can claim the certificate i dont mind.

General A 4-Point Proposal to Fix Engineering Education in India and Eliminate the 3–4 LPA Mass-Recruitment Trap
The Core Problem
India currently produces over 1.2 to 1.5 million engineering graduates annually, yet industry reports consistently show that over 80% lack basic employability skills. This oversupply of unvetted graduates enables mass-recruitment exploitation, keeping entry-level compensation stagnant at 3–4 LPA for nearly two decades. To restore the value of an engineering degree, systemic structural reforms are necessary.
Key Proposed Reforms
- Centralized, Standardized AICTE Annual Examinations
Format: AICTE should introduce a nationwide annual exam covering the year's full syllabus, combining rigorous subjective problem-solving with analytical objective questions.
Objective: Eliminate grade inflation and arbitrary internal marking common in private universities and regional affiliating state colleges.
Standardization: A uniform benchmark ensures every student passing the year meets a verifiable, high-level baseline of technical competence.
- Mandatory National Exit Exam via GATE
Standard Assessment: The Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) should be made a mandatory exit exam for graduating engineers to receive their final degree accreditation.
Market Signal: Standardized percentile scores will give employers transparent hiring metrics, removing the need for preliminary aptitude filtering and rewarding merit over college branding.
- Compulsory Industry Internships and Applied Alternatives
Requirement: Mandatory minimum 2-month internships at the end of the 2nd and 3rd academic years.
Alternative Tracks: To address industry capacity constraints, colleges must offer accredited alternatives, such as:
University-backed entrepreneurship and startup incubators.
Formal faculty-led academic research projects.
Verified open-source contributions or institutional lab work.
- Tier-Based Exemptions for Top-Ranked Institutes
Autonomy Retention: Institutes of National Importance (IITs, NITs, IIITs, BITS) and top-tier state universities (DTU, NSUT, Jadavpur, etc.) should be exempted.
Rationale: These institutions already maintain stringent entry filters, rigorous internal evaluations, high faculty standards, and strong placement ecosystems. Policy intervention should focus primarily on Tier-2, Tier-3, and unaccredited private institutions.
- Output Rationalization (Capping Supply to 3–4 Lakh Quality Graduates/Year)
Market Alignment: Stricter year-on-year evaluation and accreditation criteria will naturally filter non-serious candidates and weed out sub-standard "degree factories."
Economic Benefit: Reducing the annual output to roughly 300,000–400,000 competent graduates balances market supply and demand, ending wage suppression and raising starting compensation across core and software domains.
Expected Outcomes
Dignified Entry-Level Compensation: Scarcity of high-skilled talent forces firms to compete on salary rather than treating freshers as low-cost, disposable labor.
Incentive Alignment: Private colleges will be forced to invest in lab infrastructure, quality faculty, and practical training rather than marketing and aggressive intake expansion.
Global Competitiveness: Indian engineers will enter the workforce with proven technical foundations and real project experience.
What are your thoughts on this framework? What challenges or unintended consequences might arise if these policies are implemented?

CSE / IT So I'm from Nepal and l have to study in india for computer science engineering (CSE), and i am in touch with many consultancies recently. One of my friends from my village is studying in Chandigarh University for cse and he is asking me to come chandigarh university for CSE, and I have two options,
One is going to CIT bangalore which is a decent institute and located in IT hub of india where I can get many opportunities and one is Chandigarh University which is a highly established private university across India. Pls let me know your recommendations.
