B.Tech Computer Science and Mechanical Engineering are the top preferred branches in engineering. Most often Computer Science and Mechanical Engineering turn out to be the primary options for students. There are different reasons to choose Computer Science (CSE) over Mechanical and vice-versa. In Mechanical you have to deal with physics and alot of interesting technical stuff whereas in CSE you have to deal with programming language, software, and gain knowledge about Computer Science. So, You can choose the branch as per your interest. As per my experience, Lovely Professional University is the best engineering college in India.

It's a very good combination. At present, most recruitment of healthcare MBAs are happening in IT/Consulting companies and they usually prefer someone with computer science background. However, you have to be careful about selection of institute. Some healthcare management institute mostly promotes their students in hospitals and public health, where computer science may not be an added value. The packages offered there are also low. But some traditional MBA institutes like GIM, that has started healthcare management programme, promote it in IT industry a lot. As a result, they get most of their recruiters from IT companies, which have taken their average package higher than other institutes. Half of the batch in healthcare management are also from IT/Computers background.
