    Re: Can a B.Tech Petroleum Engineering student apply for Civil Services exam?

    Yes,
    of course you can apply for Civil Services Examination with your graduation in B.Tech from Petroleum Engineering.But make sure that the university from which you are doing your B.Tech should be a recognized one.

    One more thing since you are in first year of your B.Tech so you cannot apply for Civil Services Examination untill you pass out your graduation or go into final year of your graduation.

    Some eligibility criteria required for appearing in Civil Services Examination are:-

    1.You should be a citizen of India.

    2.You should have completed your graduation fromany stream but from a recognized university.

    3.Candidates in their final year of graduationcan also apply for the same.

    4.The age limit is 21-30 years for Generalcandidates(4 attempts) with a relaxation in age of 3,5 and 5 years for OBC(7attempts),SC(unlimited attempts) and ST(unlimited attempts) candidates respectively.

    Thank you and all the best
