What is the scope of computer hardware engineering? Will computer hardware engineering survive in future?

Hello Bhavesh, It is true that nowadays 60-75 percent out of total jobs available in the computer Science and technology field are software oriented, but this is not an uneven thing due to the variety and ease of task available in computer Science. In contrast to the above fact there are a lot of field where hardware knowledge is essential and these field are providing jobs to the talented persons who have hardware level knowledge. Some of these fields are under:- 1.Embedded System Programming 2.Machine Level Programming 3.Working With RADAR or Similar System 4.Design Of Automated System And the list begins from here without ending. You can operate a system without knowing about its hardware configuration but you can't change or modify it according to your ease/convenience. Thus it is clear from the above discussion that hardware is the father, guardian and the present boss in the computer system/field. History also support this fact as Abacus was designed before any simplest software. At last let us consider an example specially for those who think that hardware has no value in current computer industry : Let us consider a person working as a clerk in a firm and doesn't know about computer hardware, he just know about his soft work. Suddenly RAM of his system/computer is ejected from its position. Then there is no use of his experience or software knowledge. It shows that a small level hardware knowledge is essential for everybody. And of course a large bit of knowledge may put your name among the persons earning hundreds of dollars/week by just working few hours from $15 million industry I.e. Industry of automated products.
