    Hello,
    B.Tech in CS or ECE is a good option as per today's requirement and there are good placements in 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.

    Mechanical Engineering is called an evergreen branch considering its placement potentials. Streams in demand include Electronics and Communication, Instrumentation, Electrical and Electronics, Computer Science and Engineering and so on. Besides, there are new generation streams such as Information Technology, Avionics, Aeronautical Engineering, Mechatronics, Automobile Engineering, Robotics and so on. Considering the trends in the growth of the industry, electronics and computer science streams are predicted to have good prospects in future.
    Let's hope for the best.

    Well that depends on your interest and knowledge in the particular field. In the current scenario the maximum number of students are opting for Computer Science branch but I believe if you are more interested in the auto industry then you should go for mechanical engineering. Here in my opinion, Lovely professional university is the one which is offering best in both the streams. LPU provides a great academic exposure to its students. It is a UGC-approved university which has been ranked well by various agencies on the basis of its infrastructure, its faculty, its placements, its teaching practices, etc. The university provides ample o

    Among your specific choices between CSE, Civil, Mechanical in my opinion best one is CSE only. My own brother last year passed out from LPU from CSE branch and now working in Wipro MNC with good package and fully satisfied with his placements so accordingly I can tell you. LPU CSE branch is much in demand and have shown a unbreable placement records. LPU adopts new technologies faster than anyone, they update their curriculum even after each semester by taking feedback from the students and also to meet the latest standards. LPU focuses on practical knowledge a lot, they have high tech labs and dedicated MAC lab for iOS development, ea

I've had a really good experience with the mechanical engineering faculty at Chandigarh University. Most of them are PhD holders, so you can tell they know their subject inside out. What I like is that they're not just teaching from books—they share real-world examples, guide us in labs, and help with projects. The faculty is approachable, so if you ever get stuck on something, you can just ask, and they'll explain patiently. They also encourage students to explore electives like Thermal & Energy Engineering, Industrial Manufacturing, or Design & Robotics, and help you pick what suits your career goals.

Yes, Chandigarh University is a good choice for B.E. in Mechanical Engineering. What I really like about the programme is the variety of specializations you can pick, like Thermal & Energy, Industrial Manufacturing & Management, or Automation & Robotics. The labs are another strong point from 3D printing and advanced welding labs to industry-backed centres by Honda, Mahindra, Hyundai, and MG Motors. These collaborations give you hands-on exposure that feels very close to real-world industry work. On top of that, the department is both ABET and NBA accredited, which adds global recognition.
