B.Tech in Mechanical ++
Course Overview
B.Tech Mechanical ++ at RIT Roorkee?
B.Tech Mechanical ++ is a variant of the regular B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering offered by Roorkee Institute of Technology (RIT), Roorkee, that includes additional value-added components and enhanced learning opportunities compared to the standard B.Tech Mechanical program. This enhanced version is designed to give students more skills and exposure beyond the core curriculum. Roorkee Institute of Technology
It appears to include specializations, workshops, industry-driven exposure, and industry collaborations alongside the standard mechanical engineering coursework — which is why the fee is somewhat higher than the regular B.Tech Mechanical program. Roorkee Institute of Technology

Admission Process
The admission to B.Tech Computer Science program is based on entrance exam scores followed by counseling. Here's the step-by-step process:
Check Eligibility
Candidate must have passed 10+2 examination with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as compulsory subjects with minimum 60% marks.
Appear for Entrance Exam
Appear for BCECE (Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination) or JEE Main. The college accepts scores from both examinations.
Online Application
Fill the online application form on the college website during the application window (typically May-June).
Counseling Process
Shortlisted candidates will be called for counseling based on their entrance exam rank. Document verification and seat allotment happens during counseling.
Fee Payment & Enrollment
Selected candidates need to pay the admission fee and complete the enrollment process to confirm their seat.
Career Opportunities
Core Mechanical Engineering Roles
After graduation, you can work in traditional mechanical fields where your technical skills are directly used in designing, building, and improving physical systems:
Common Core Roles:
-
Mechanical Engineer
-
Production Engineer
-
Design Engineer
-
Maintenance Engineer
-
Manufacturing Engineer
These roles are typically found in automobile, manufacturing, energy, and heavy engineering companies.
Industry & Manufacturing Sector
Mechanical engineers are in demand across industries that involve machines and equipment. Career paths include:
-
Automotive Industry – engine design, quality testing, production planning
-
Manufacturing Plant Operations – optimizing production processes
-
Industrial Automation – robotics, control systems, and smart manufacturing
-
Energy & Power Sector – thermal systems, HVAC, turbines
