    Re: Can electrical and electronics engineers apply for IES or not?

    Dear Aspirant

    Yes Electrical and Electronics engineer do apply for IES.But you have to keep in mind that question paper format has been designed only in these four papers Electrical Engineering,Civil Engineering,Mechanical Engineering and Electronics & Telecommunincation Engineering.

    So you can prepare for the examiantion only from these subjects.As per my opinion it will be easier for you if you select Electronics & Telecommunincation as most of the papers will be common as you have studied in your engineering.For other paper you may take guidance from coaching institute.
