Which has a better scope and why: Petroleum Engineering or Electronics and Electrical Engineering?

Well that depend on your interest that which can lead to success for you. Here I am detailing the scope of petroleum engineering I. e. Petroleum industryOil and gas industryProcess and manufacturingFood industryMaterialsChemical industryPlasticsPower productionEnvironmental controlWaste managementResearch and development DRDO Coal preparation and mineral processing Fertilizer industry Paint, lubricant industry. And for EEE are:- Graduate Engineer Trainee (GET)SDO/AE in State Electricity BoardsSystem EngineerDesign EngineerSoftware DevelopersPublic Sectors such as NTPC, Indian Railways, Armed forces (Technical Branch) etc. Higher Studies In India & AbroadEntrepreneurship LPU is a well renowned university, providing quality education, innovative pedagogy and unbeatable placements both national and international. LPU provides a great academic exposure to its students. It provides a chance to the students to attend guest lectures or workshops, so that they get to learn as much as they can. The students also work on live projects, so that they are able to apply their knowledge to practical settings. It is one of the few that has embraced international practices when it comes to designing a curriculum. Instead of using old school books and lectures, LPU has experimented with books, interactive problem-solving interactions and working through real-world applications. LPU provides ample opportunities to each and every eligible student to secure good placement with the help of a dedicated Division of Career Services. The university has been ranked high by various outer agencies with regard to placements. LPU is conferred with National Employ-ability Award 2020 by Aspiring Minds for the 7th time in a row for having Most Employable Students and being one among the top colleges and universities in India with one of the highest Employ-ability rates.

There is scope for every branch, Both are highly in demand programs, its you who has to SEE and decide his/her ambition. And this depends on your own introspection. Ask these questions to yourself and answer honestly. You will get your answer automatically: What am I passionate about? What do I like to do? What subjects do I enjoy most at school? Which subjects am I good at? Are they also the subjects I enjoy? What are my marks in these subjects? If my marks are low can I improve them? Can I SEE myself studying further? What careers support my subject choice? More importantly choose a college/university which has all the supporting infrastructure and intellectual capital to curate the programme in a way that industry immersion is good. LPU has all these trades with placements in each and every one of the, with recent NIRF rankings putting it amongst top 100 institutions in the country it is a great choice. Choose wisely. DVD.

I think you are very smart to think about the future when you graduate, and not just the situation today. It is of course hard to predict the future, but it is likely that fewer students will go on to study this option, so you will be comparatively rare when you graduate. Industry may by then looking to replace some of the people it is letting go at present. It is quite possible that some current resources will be depleted and others will be unavailable because of political reasons. There may also be a return to gas as a stop-gap instead of coal which is presently acting as the backup when the sun does not shine and the wind does not blow. In addition, drilling is an expensive process, but has applications beyond oil and gas. One attractive renewable option is geothermal, in which water is pumped down into hot rocks to make steam. This operates day and night all year round and can be reduced fairly easily when demand falls, or other sources such as wind and solar are delivering. For this you need graduates who understand geology, drilling and fluid flow, which petroleum engineers do. The USA has a vast untapped potential which has been largely ignored because of the focus on oil and gas. It would be nice to see the expertise in fracking diverted to this carbon-free source of electricity. See if you would enjoy the course, and if so, it is worth a try.

I think the scope of any branch is a factor of two parameters. One is the job opportunities that the branch provides, other is the scope in the perspective of higher studies. Electronics and electrical engineering are the branches that are rapidly rising due to the introduction of the digital era. These engineers deal with the making of electrical and communication sensors. The new concept of Internet of things and digital transformation would not have been possible without this branch while petroleum engineers deal with hydrocarbons extraction and transfer, etc. From jobs perspectives, the Electrical and Electronics engineers get offers from many good companies like BHEL, etc. The petroleum engineers get jobs from tops companies like Oil India Corporation Limited etc. From this job opportunity perspective, both the branches are equally depending upon the college, you study and what companies approach for placement. Although if you are technically sound, you can also get off campus placements. Now, coming to higher studies perspective. You need to know that higher studies require, again the technically sound candidates. It depends upon your undergraduate score, recommendations, marks in respective qualifying exams. You can apply for both GRE and Indian Exams for higher studies using these branches. Since all the universities don't specialize in petroleum, this might be a negative point for petroleum engineers. So, both the branches have good scope given that you are inclined equally. Hope that Helps. All the best.

Hi there, Engineering is one of the highly preferred careers in India. There are lots of industries available in India and abroad which offer excellent jobs for engineering graduates. Electronics and communication engineers have huge demand. The ECE plays a major role in the improvement and production in industries along with the testing and control of products. It has wider application in the communication industry in the development of computers, military devices, consumer electronics, communication equipment etc. ECE engineers will get jobs in government and private companies, both in India as well as aboard. Petroleum engineers have highly challenging jobs. A person who wants to live their life on the edge will enjoy this kind of jobs. There are many companies who recruit petroleum engineers and are paid high remuneration. You can choose any field. Petroleum engineering involves extensive traveling to different places. If you like this type of jobs then you can choose this field. Ps:- ECE is better in terms of scope. Hope this helps.

EEE is better as a core branch always has a greater scope than a non-core branch.

According to me, electronics and electrical engineering than petroleum engineering is having a better scope. It is not only because of high paying jobs in the electronics and electrical engineering sector but also because of the growth rate of electronics and the electrical sector is more than petroleum sector. Considering petroleum engineering is also not a wrong decision as it also has a better scope as there are many good or oil companies in India and India is one of the exporting crude oil containing countries that export crude oil to other countries. Electronics and electrical sector has a better scope then petroleum engineering because of the convergence of hardware and software sector of computer science. As there are new concepts being developed in the field of computer science like virtual reality artificial intelligence and machine learning, so there is a need to implement these in the form of machines and these machines can only be formed or made by electronics and electrical engineers or graduates.
