Hello Sayan, As a general rule for placements, a lot more will depend upon your own hard work, communication & presentation skills and overall preparation. This would be true for any university you enroll in. As someone already said, all streams are good. It all depends on your interest and your life goals. To be successful in engineering field, you should have analytical mind set and logical thinking. Rest, the solid background in Maths & Physics is a pre-requisite for any stream as numerical and analytical analysis should be in your DNA to become a successful employable engineer. Otherwise, mere passing a degree with no such skills will not be any help to you. Now, talking about choosing a stream, there is a lot more choices available over the past few years. Some new field like Nano Technology, Ceramics, Plastic Engineering, Mechatronics, Biomedical engineering have emerged which are a combination of more than one engineering trade. If talking about basics, then you have Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Electronics & Electrical engineering, Computer Science, etc. To have a good career, you would need strong educational background. It means getting an engineering degree from a good/ reputed institution is a must. Please see some of the good institutes where you can pursue your engineering education in one of the basic as well as allied fields: - -Birla Institute of Technology -Manipal University -Lovely Professional University -SRM University I hope that answers your question. All the best.

Hi, B.Tech CSE is the best option to go for these days, in terms of both scope and curriculum. Next comes ECE then Aeronautics and aerospace engineering. However, this particularity is chosen only when there is too much competition otherwise all streams are good and equally essential and performing.

Manish Sharma · Answer

B.Tech in CS or ECE is a good option as per today's requirement and there are good placements in the industry. But companies only take students who have extra skills along with the degree. They don't just take degree holders. So, do extra courses and job will be in your hand.

Hi, How are you? Well, each and every branch in engineering is good, we can't compare them. Just there are a few differences like mechanical, electrical and civil are evergreen branches but CS, IT and EC have high placement records. Other than this, you may also take chemical, metallurgy, mechatronics, etc. So, choose a suitable branch. Go for it. Thank you and keep asking!
