Q:   Can I pursue B.Tech and B.Sc simultaneously?

A: 

No,  it is not possible to pursue BTech as well as BSc at the same time, however there are few alternatives that you can consider:

However, there are alternative ways to achieve your goals:

  • Integrated Dual Degree Programs: Some universities offer integrated dual degree programs like BTech.-MSc (or similar combinations) that allow you to earn two degrees within a longer duration (typically 5-6 years) compared to a regular BTech or BSc program.
  • Distance Learning (BSc): Consider pursuing a BSc degree through a distance learning programme from a recognised university while attending a regular BTech program. This requires discipline and proper time management, but it allows you to earn both degrees. However, some employers might value a regular BSc more than a distance learning degree.
  • Focus on One Degree and Pursue Certifications: Complete your BTech degree and then pursue relevant certifications or online courses related to the field you'd like to explore through a BSc (e.g., Data Science, Biotechnology). This allows you to gain additional knowledge and skills without the burden of a second full degree.
