Hi Shilpa,
If you have decided to become a civil engineer then there are two options available. You can either go in for a diploma or degree in civil engineering. After a graduate degree, you can also pursue post graduation in the subject.
You can go for a three year Diploma course after Class 10. For applying to a graduate program in civil engineering, you will have to choose Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics in 10+2 and should qualify an entrance test either on a national level or on the state level. Your performance in 10+2 examinations could also be taken into consideration. The duration of the graduate program is four years.
After successful completion of this degree course, you can go for a post-graduate course if you are interested in research or teaching. Those interested in higher studies and research can apply for a doctoral program.
