Selection of a course as in the case of majority of students is purely a matter of job opportunities. It is not wrong but it is not enough. Success Involves Knowing Yourself, Exploring Options and Making Apt Decision.
Associate Membership of Institution of Engineers (AMIE) is an excellent option for higher study especially for those students who are unable to pursue a regular engineering degree after finishing diploma and degree and look forward for a career in the realm of engineering.
AMIE: Membership & Exam
AMIE, as you might know is a certification issued by Institution of Engineers India (IEI) the largest multi-disciplinary engineering professional society in India. AMIE Certification has been recognized by the Government of India as equivalent to engineering degree given by AICTE, UPSC, SSC etc. The first step to become an AMIE is to gain the IEI membership which is wholly divided into two classes namely, Technician Member' and Senior Technician Member. The Technician Membership has been given to those candidates who passed 10+2 and candidates who have an accredited Diploma in Engineering/Technology or Polytechnic are eligible for Senior Technician Membership.
AMIE (Exam) is divided into Section A and Section B. Both Technician and Senior Technician Members can appear for the Section A i.e. the preliminary examination of AMIE. After the successful completion of Section A, members can choose a particular discipline of engineering program in Section B. (Each year Section- A examination is held in May and November). The first step to become an AMIE is to gain the IEI membership which is wholly divided into two classes namely, Technician Member' and Senior Technician Member. The Technician Membership has been given to those candidates who passed 10+2 and candidates who have an accredited Diploma in Engineering/Technology or Polytechnic are eligible for Senior Technician Membership.
AMIE: Scope & Career
Many of the students are confused about the scope of AMIE. As it is equal to other engineering degrees conducted by various universities and institutions in India and abroad, students after passing AMIE will be eligible to apply for GATE, GRE, IAS, and IES Examinations or they can start their career as engineer. There are a number of AMIE Engineering Colleges that offers excellent coaching for AMIE across India.
