Which field has more scope: Engineering or Medical?

It is not an easy questions to answer. As we all say about engineer that engineers are most unemployed degree holders but its not true fact. There are lots of good engineers currently working in very good technologies. I would prefer to go with engineering.

Both fields have a lot of scope, to be frank. Medical Science is a vast field of study in itself, while engineering is all about solving problems, and advancement in technology. If employment is your concern, it is engineering which offers you a job on campus at the end of four years, which is usually low paying. A medical degree, followed by specialisation, and work experience over the years guarantees you a long lasting career. Engineering is a four year course which usually results in a job offer in the fourth year itself. If you choose to pursue a medical degree, do note that you'll need to put in a decade of hard work and dedication, before you have a stable career. A lot depends on your interest, and this can be distinguished at school itself. If a student loves studying biology in the 11th and 12th standard, the student is more likely to make a career out of it in medical science. Then comes engineering, which involves a lot of disciplines. Depending on the area of interest and expertise, the choice is to be made here.

These two fields are very different from each other. Both the fields have plenty of career opportunities. Engineers work for the betterment of society and advancement of technologies whereas medical line students generally deal with the functioning of body parts and it's treatment. Many students regret after taking medical and many regrets after engineering. So, I will suggest you to choose one according to your interest. If you are interested in biology then choose medical line otherwise go with engineering. You will surely get opportunities in both the fields. Again, both the fields are divided into few sub categories which you can choose according to your comfort. These days engineering is the first choice of most of the students. Many engineers end up getting a job in banking line and many ends up getting a job in defence line. The technical degree will help you a lot. Economic condition is one of the major reason for many students who choose to engineer. So if money is not an issue for you then you may choose the medical line. Fee is also very high for private medical colleges. I will personally suggest you to go with your interest because at the end of the day it's your life and you yourself have to deal it.

Hey there, I would start by saying don't fall in the trap of scope. Every year, millions of students take engineering because there is "scope" in it but end up regretting their decision. The question you should be asking yourself is what I passionate about am or what do I want to do for rest of my life. All the fields engineering, medical, finance, economics, arts, philosophy have lot of scope if you are truly interested in them. If you are really good at what you do in any of the fields you will have a bright future. Engineering and medical are the default options towards which Indians focus. The scope is good in both of them, but only if you like what you do. Engineering is about learning the applications of various sciences and applying them to better other people's life. While medical is learning about the functioning and the minutes about our body and using them to save lives or make advancements in medical sciences. So look around, search on web and you will surely find your passion. Despite studying in second year of mechanical engineering I found my passion in finance and now working towards the learning as much I can about the same. You may think people just talk philosophy but most of them speak from their personal experiences. Follow your heart and make the right choice.

Hi, It's not about scope but about the interest. The domain of this question is vast. Both of these fields have a vast scope. As an engineering student, I would like to share what is engineering all about. Engineering is to study about the day-to-day technologies, the study of sciences and their applications in the betterment of our lives. You may get a job at the end 3rd or 4th year of your engineering course which pay you according to the reputation of your college. Elder sister of a friend of mine was studying MBBS. So, I would like to share her experience about medical studies. When I was in 6th standard, I asked her what is she doing? Her reply was, "MBBS". After that when I was preparing for JEE, i.e., in 12th standard, I asked her what is she doing? Her reply was the same, "MBBS". So, definitely, it takes time to do MBBS studies and practice. But after that, with an experience of few years, you are highly paid. At the end, interest matters, because the scope is vast in both of these fields!

It is one of the best question which I had come across. Most of people are saying that, “engineering has lost its scope. And there no job for the many students. But, literally it is not. Not only the number of engineering students have increased, but also the demand for the engineers have also increased as the technology is getting updated in a great way. The phone which was considered the latest one before six months have become older within five months. And people should change the perception about engineering. Parents expect their engineering kids to have job at the end of 4th year. But, the engineers are not meant for that. The actual meaning of engineering is creator. So, instead to planning to get placed in company at the end of 4th year, try to create your own product (startup). And my advice would be that if you like a course, just select that course. Never look at the scope and other things. Because, the only way to work successfully is to love what you do. And, to be successful one should have enough guts to follow his or her heart and intuition. You can only be successful, only if you are doing what you love. Unless or until you love what you do, you can’t be successful.

Both are the demanding field, so both have good scope and cannot be left behind as the whole world runs on technology healthcare and many other sectors.

Choosing a career after schooling is one of the most important decisions in a students life. Many times, students identify their interest areas in early classes that eventually helps them in making an appropriate career choice. However, many students remain unsure about the same and face difficulties in deciding which career option is best for them. Engineering and medical are two prominent career choices that offer various opportunities and amazing job prospects for students. Thus, they remain the conventional choices for all Science enthusiasts. However, choosing between these two popular career options is a major dilemma faced by numerous students. Both Medical and Engineering have ample amount of scope and opportunities. It definitely depends on your interests and preferences and what you want to become in future. Scope in both are endless and these are those trades in which your career is definitely secure if you have the required skills and interest in the respective field.
