    Hello Ammar, Electrical engineering is the design and study of electronics, power, and electrical systems while mechanical engineering is the design and study of power, energy, weapons systems, aircraft and transportation products, and other equipment.
    Electrical engineering is one of the main branches of engineering which is concerned with the use of electricity to transmit energy while mechanical engineering is concerned with the design, manufacture, and maintenance of mechanical devices and tools.
    Both can involve the field of mechatronics and robotics, but electrical engineering is also concerned with electronics and telecommunicatio

    Mechanical Engineering is called an evergreen branch as Mechanical Engineering graduates find suitable placements in almost all segments of industry. But if you aim at opportunities state electricity boards and public sector industries such as BHEL, Power Grid Corporation etc. Electrical Engineering Graduates must face competition to emerge victorious.

    Hi Ammar,
    I hope you are doing good as I have something for you which will clear your dilemma at some extent.
    Mechanical, Electrical, Computer Science or something else? Deciding upon the right engineering stream is quite tricky for both students and their parents.
    Most of us go through the same dilemma after clearing different entrance exams.
    Go for interest, not scope
    While we may say that scope for a field keeps changing with time, as we see new trends coming up every few years.
    The reality is, every branch has good scope and opportunities if you perform well in it.
    Contrary to this, if you take up a branch just based on its job prospects

    Dear Ammar, Ranking the branches in the order of their scope as CSE, ECE, Mechanical, Civil, EE. Rest it also depends on the University from which you pursue your programme. As per my experience, LPU is the best engineering college in India. LPU becomes the best place to pursue an engineering degree with highly qualified teaching staff, best laboratories, and modern technologies. LPU provides abundant opportunities for students to think out of the box. With Quality of Education, Placements in LPU is also amazing, with the top brand in the world coming for Campus Recruitment provides great opportunities to its students and because of it

Quantum University is good for B.Tech Mechanical Engineering, especially if you want practical learning along with theory. From a student point of view, I feel the mechanical department is strong and the teachers are supportive.

The university has all the important mechanical labs like workshop lab, fluid mechanics lab, thermal lab, strength of material lab, and machine lab. In these labs we get to work on real machines, tools, engines, and different mechanical equipment. Teachers guide us step by step, so even difficult topics become easy to understand.

The course covers all the main subjects like thermodynamics, manufacturing process,
