Food Technology

Hello Vemula,
Entry to this course is exactly in line with entry for other degree courses of engineering. At national level you have to appear for JEE Mains and at state level you have to appear for state level entrance exam. Preparing for exam involves studying every subject every day, assigning some time for exercise, some time for entertainment and giving as many mock tests as possible.

You can check on below colleges:
All India Institute of Local Self Government - AIILSG Kochi
DGMMES Mampad College
SIAS
University of Calicut
Silver Arts and Science College

No, you cannot pursue B.Tech in food technology after completing Diploma in mechanical engineering.

After B.Sc in microbiology, food biotechnology is a better option as it will help you to understand microbial interaction during food processing and its cycle.

Hello Shrushti,
Whether JEE Mains is required or not depends as to where you want to take admission. Unfortunately, for engineering, nothing like NEET is available. However GOL is planning for the same. You will have to go through the list of colleges offering this course and find out their eligibility criteria.

IIM A provides PGP & FABM program only. Referring to placements, you can secure a consulting role in PGP program, but consulting role are not that plausible in FABM program. In short, you are coming from food technology and joining PGP then the answer is yes or else FABM no.
