B.Tech Flexible Timing is a 3-year engineering program that allows working professionals to complete the engineering graduation program. The program is also known as B.Tech for Working Professionals or B. Tech Lateral Entry and approved by UGC and AICTE. Applicants must note that Distance and Part Time B.Tech programs are invalid because of the Supreme Court Judgement  

Distance B.Tech (B.Tech Flexible Timing) is a graduate course followed by students who dream of being an engineer. The course is structured to encourage students to gain the equivalent knowledge without even engaging in daily classes. The course is specifically designed for students who are ready to study the B.Tech course but are unable to attend the standard classes.

The course provides the aspirants with practical and theoretical skills in technology. Distance BTech is a good course for workers and students who do not have ample money or time to take their daily BTech lessons.
