The notification contains the word "in the field of" . As I know BE is that degree which can be done by Maths Students only. It has tremendous application of mathematics. Without the numerical, geometric, algebraic expressions and the sign of +, -, X, /, = etc Engineering or BE is not possible. . So, it can easily be argued that BE is a degree of Graduation in the field of Mathematics. .
