    Being an IT graduate you are eligible for UPSC exams.

    List of exams you can apply are:


    Central Police Forces Examination (CPF)
    Civil Services Examination
    Combined Defense Services Examination (CDS)


    But you are not eligible for Engineering services exam conducted by UPSC.

    Eligibility for Engineering services Exam:

    Age Eligibility:
    You need to be between 21 years to 30 years.
    Age relaxations exist as per Govt. rules.

    Academic Eligibility:
    You must be a graduate in Engineering from a recognized university in Electronics/Civil/Mechanical/Electrical.
    Even Final year students can also appear in IES exam, provided he/she can provide the proof of passing the exam when IES exam (Written) result comes out, which is around December of every year.
