My friend did a BTech lateral entry course from LPU and according to him, it was the best decision that he took. LPU is a premier university in India with strong industry collaborations and dedicated experienced faculty. BTech is one of the flagship programs at LPU that is also offered in lateral entry mode.
BTech in lateral entry mode is offered in various specialisations. You have to choose the one that you are interested in and want to build a career out of it. The basic eligibility for BTech lateral entry courses is 60% marks in the diploma after class 10. As you have 85% marks on your diploma, you are eligible for the course.
You still have to appear in the LPUNEST entrance exam as it is a part of the admission process. With good marks in the exam, you can also avail scholarship of up to 48% of the program fee.
