How can I become an electronics engineer?

I have done my 10+2 and want to know if I could become an electronic engineer right away.

You have just passed your 10+2 but for you to become an electronic engineer you must have a bachelor’s degree in engineering, which is the minimum requirement to become a qualified electrical engineer. If you want to opt for a teaching post or a future in research then a post-graduate degree is required. And if you want to go for a more lucrative career and want to pursue management positions then a degree in business administration is necessary or advisable.

Engineering courses are available at two levels. There are the degree and postgraduate degree courses offered by the engineering colleges and Institutes of Technology (IITs), and the diploma courses available at polytechnics. Associate Membership of the Institution of Engineers (AMIE) also offers courses in Electrical engineering which is equivalent to B.E/B.Tech provided by other institutes/universities.

The basic eligibility criteria for a B.E / B.Tech in Electrical Engineering is 10+2 or equivalent examination, with high percentage of marks in Science subjects (Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics). So, the first step for you would be to go for a graduation as you have just completed your 10+2. Once you have done your graduation then you can opt for post graduate programs, which requires you to have a B.E/B. Tech in electrical engineering. The program can either be studied alone or can be combined with electronic engineering. You can even opt for super specialty or Ph. D program in electrical engineering. For the purpose of joining a specialty program, you should have done M.E in electrical engineering or electrical and electronics engineering.
