Points 5, 6 and 7 (if applicable) are the deal-breakers; it is fundamental that the degree says "engineering" on it (this I confirmed with the Ministry when I asked during my application, she said "as long as the degree says engineering on it, and is issued by an accredited university (see list
here), it's accepted").
Other than that, I don't see why not.
