B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering (Lateral Entry) at Sandip University

Sandip University, Bihar - Other, Bihar, offers B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering (Lateral Entry) as a 3-year undergraduate degree. Fees for the full course come to ₹2.4 lakh (roughly ₹80,000 a year).

Lateral entry lets diploma holders (and, at many colleges, B.Sc. graduates) join directly in the second year, so the degree takes a year less. The subjects are the same as the regular programme from the second year on.
