    Hi isha, You really need to answer yourself one thing that whether you will choose your stream according to your interest and aptitude or on the basis of job placement you will decide your stream no matter you have interest in it or not. I agree job aspect is an important while choosing your prospective career. But you should check your interest area, aptitude also. Well, all of the branches have a great scope, provided you have interest, aptitude, frame of mind, temperament, passion, personality traits that align with your aspirations in any of these. That is the reason why all the branches are being taught in such a large number of c

    Dear Isha, As the world is shrinking and is becoming more and more digital, the scope for Computer Science is on a rise. You must have heard people from other specializations (Mechanical, Civil, Electronics, etc. ). Working in the Computer Science area. I suggest you to go for CSE. My younger brother has already completed B.Tech CSE from Lovely Professional University and currently he is working with amazon. His experience at LPU was amazing. He has discussed placements, exposure, academics etc. LPU is the best engineering college in Punjab for CSE. Lately, number of admissions in CSE department has been increased rapidly and has becom

    That totally depends on the answers to following questions to yourself:
    What do you want to do in career? What does the degree you are planning to get enable you to do in career? Answer both of these honestly to yourself, you'll get the answer. All of the branches have a great scope, provided you have interest, aptitude, frame of mind, temperament, passion, personality traits that align with your aspirations in any of these. That is the reason why all the branches are being taught in such a large number of colleges in the first place. You must give it a deep though yourself for making a decision. Every field has ample number of jobs and

    All are good options but scope wise always computer Science stands ahead. Because the field has a very wide scope and demand. Moreover, in any decent college, you can expect very good college placements for CSE more. Being an CSE student from LPU, I would recommend LPU. B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering is related with algorithms, computation, programming languages, programme design, computer hardware, computer software etc. It is a comprehensive course in computer systems and applications. The students who pursue the course of Computer Science Engineering are taught about design, the implementation as well as management of comput

    All the branches of engineering are equally good and have tremendous job opportunities. It entirely depends on how well you understand and handle the stream and increase your scope of growth. Different branches of engineering are popular at different places and the popularity depends upon the day to day requirement of that place. In my opinion these days the major opportunities are there for the students of computer Science/information technology but I would say you should choose stream based on your interest as that will open a wider scope for your future. As per today's requirement, Lovely professional university is the one which pro
