Based on current market trends computer science engineering has more scope and better placement opportunities. With all these new startups and MNCs coming to India CSE is a branch where you want to be in coming 4-5 years.
Mechanical engineering has its own perks, a career in ME allows you to build a better future for you, and for the world. ME might not provide you a high paying job initially, but over the time with your experience you can grow.
Both the branches have scope and it all depends on your dedication. -
Hello,
Mechanical engineering is called an evergreen branch as Mechanical Engineers do find placement opportunities in almost every sector in the industry. But the computer industry although hit by recession on occasions in the past also offer promising prospects for job aspirants. Let's hope for the better. All the best. -
Hi,
Both mechanical as well as computer science has ample of good opportunities, the only difference with respect to any individual is the amount of interest, knowledge and the skills.

Computer science engineers have better opportunities in terms of placements but even mechanical engineering students get good jobs.

CSE is in trend nowdays, as the highest placement packages are there in the same. Rest depends on your interest. -
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! -
In India, there are very less jobs for the mechanical engineers but as in the coming scenario there might be the rise in demand of these engineers but the CS branch is evergreen in India and there will always be the demand of these engineers. -
They both have equal opportunities. You only need to develop interest and skills in that particular field. Best of luck.
