Yes, you can admission in automobile engineering in lateral entry if you had done diploma. for example, in LPU student can get lateral entry admission in automobile if they had done diploma with at least 50% marks in diploma+LPUNEST. Automotive Engineering is an amalgamation of mechanical, electrical, and materials science. This field deals with designing and manufacturing of new vehicles and the development of new processes to improve existing technology. The domestic vehicle manufacturing sector of India has been steadily increasing in the last few years. An entry-level engineer can earn up to INR 25K/ month- INR 50K/ month in India. Some of the companies/institutes that recruit Automotive Engineering graduates are: 1. Bajaj Auto Ltd. 2. Eicher Motors Ltd. 3. Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. 4. Hinduja Group Ltd. LPU is a good university when you compare it with other private universities and colleges. I have done my B.Tech CSE from LPU , One of my friend was enrolled in B.Tech Automobile as well. Few major point I will be sharing about LPU, I hope that helps.
