    All three services have requirements of engineers. Army has dedicated three engineering Corps. Engineering corp are Corps of Engineers, Corps of Signals and the Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineers(Corps of EME). Indian Air force has two technical branches i.e. Aeronautical Engineering (Mechanical) and Aeronautical Engineering( Electronics). You can join Indian navy in technical branches such as Engineering General Service Officer, Submarine Engineer Officer, Naval Construction Officer and Naval Architecture Cadre of the Engineering Branch. As B Tech you can join Defense Services under University Entry scheme.

    Yes of course you can apply for defense services through CDS after graduation. Also it is not as difficult as NDA exam at 12th level. You will join as equal rank as NDA candidates, the only difference is CDS candidate are consider as the candidates who failed at 12th level and are not good as NDA candidate but it's your attitude and personality that will clear their doubt about your capabilities. Also as you want to join defence as an engineer so you can apply through technical entry in defence which requiers min. percentage in 12th to apply like 80-85%.

Hi...

I need to clarify first: are you asking about admission to Chandigarh University for B.Tech/B.E, or admission to a medical/paramedical course (like B.Sc Nursing, MBBS, BPT, etc.)

The marks required and exam rules differ a lot depending on the stream.

Chandigarh University follows a holistic admission approach, giving importance to both Class 12 performance and JEE Main scores, depending on the route chosen.

For students not appearing in JEE, Class 12 performance, particularly in PCM subjects, becomes the primary eligibility criterion, alongside CUCET scores for CSE programs. This dual-focus system allows students with strong 12th marks but no JEE score to secure admission, while rewarding JEE participants with merit a

The minimum percentage requirement is as per regulatory norms and may vary slightly by program, but JEE scores alone do not override academic eligibility.
