Which is better between civil and mechanical engineering?

A civil engineer helps design and create buildings, infrastructure and other large-scale structural projects. Mechanical engineers, on the other hand, help design and create machines and mechanical devices for individuals or small groups. For example, civil engineers may use analytical data to build a twelve-story building. In contrast, mechanical engineers may use their analytic findings to develop various systems within the building, such as elevators.
Both are fine in their respective field rather it depends upon your interest.It's LOVELY PROFESSIONAL UNIVERSITY which you should consider as the best University to study Civil Engineer

Placement: 19.75 LPA (Sobha Realty) was the highest salary package last year. Huge number of Campus placement drives with reputed brands used to be held every year for this course. Students are placed in the best brands like Larsen & Tubro Ltd., Simplex Infrastructure pvt Ltd., Gammon India, National Highway Authority of India, HCC, Shapoorji & Pallonji, DLF Homes, RITES Ltd., NCC, SAIL, DMRC, BHEL, KEC INTERNATIONAL LIMITED and many more.
Scope of Civil Engineering is not limited to Domestic base rather its been accepted globally in different career aspect or profile like Corporate job, Government Job, Consultant, Teaching, Research, Entrepreneurship etc. Salary is competitive enough as it is unique field, no alternative of an experienced Civil Engineering in the industry.
I would like to flourish some the facts & figures about this course running by LPU.
1.In LPU Civil Engineering is treated as an Engineering programme which articulates the concepts from basic science to technology through lab practices and projects to gain knowledge in areas like Structural, Environmental & Highway Engineering, Construction Management etc which are in sync with industry requirements.
2.School of Civil Engineering offers Contemporary Curriculum, Professional Enhancement, Industry Immersion, Domestic & International Projects, Regular Industrial Visit, Interdisciplinary Minors, Innovative Pedagogy.
3.LPU is having Tie Ups with Civil Industry which resulted into Content Delivery by Industry Experts, Projects in collaboration with Industry.
4.School has 1000+ number of students who are involved in different research trials throughout the year.
5.PEP (Professional Enhancement Program) classes used to be held every year .

While comparing civil vs. mechanical engineering yields some similarities, the biggest difference between the two careers is what professionals in the field engineer. A civil engineer helps design and create buildings, infrastructure and other large-scale structural projects. Mechanical and civil engineering are very popular yet unique engineering fields. Both are very wide in scope and also share some common grounds. In the area of fluid mechanics and hydraulics, both overlap a great deal. I would like to say that LPU offers B.Tech in various programs such as CSE, EE, ECE, ME, CE, Automobile, Chemical, Aerospace, Biotechnology, etc.

I would like to say that LPU offers B.Tech in various programs such as CSE, EE, ECE, ME, CE, Automobile, Chemical, Aerospace, Biotechnology, etc.
1. LPU has 600+ acres of campus in Punjab and more than 25000+ students study there among many countries.
2. A-one infrastructure- All the facilities are available on the campus. You don't need to go outside in case of any need such as food, hospital, indoor/Outdoor sports stadium, etc.
3. Highly qualified faculty. Many specializations are provided by the CSE department such as AI, ML, Cloud Computing, Data Science, etc.
4. Every year more than 90% of students placed for the CSE branch in many MNCs such Amazon, Code Nation, Infineon, etc.
5. LPU provides many scholarships for bright and innovative students. Impact Ranking 2021: LPU is ahead of all the participating IITs and NITs. It is among the only Indian universities to have scored a set in the top 200 global institutes in the Impact Ranking 2021 released by THE World University Ranking. Lovely Professional University has got the 101-200 bracket. Under the Impact Ranking, THE assesses universities against the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Dear Ashish, With better and broader subjects, Mechanical engineering offers better scope than civil engineering. Civil engineering primarily targets a field whereas Mechanical engineering can be further divided into a variety of fields. My cousin did B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering at LPU. I will tell you why mechanical engineering is better at LPU. LPU is a well renowned private university in India with 30K+ students all across the world and with 4000 experienced faculty members and staff members. There are more than 200 programmes to choose and with a great infrastructure, LPU provides all the facilities within the campus itself. L

Mechanical engineering yields some similarities, the biggest difference between the two careers is what professionals in the field engineer. A civil engineer helps design and create buildings, infrastructure, and other large-scale structural projects. The professional life is much, much different between the two. But if you must know, mechanical engineering is more difficult. The core classes use higher-level maths far more than in civil engineering. Aside from that, there is no real difference between difficulties. LPU provides placement opportunities to all the deserving candidates, from all courses. It's up to the student's capability to be able to grab the opportunity or not. Till now thousands of students are placed at a very good package all around the world. Some of the alumni are working in the top 10 brands in the world. The only university in INDIA to be visited by the PRESIDENT OF INDIA, PRIME MINISTER OF INDIA, VICE PRESIDENT OF INDIA, FINANCE MINISTER OF INDIA, MAURITIUS PRESIDENT, THE DALAI LAMA, etc. And so on, these aspects really combine to create a strong profile of the students to get placed. Over 10,000 offers made in recent years by top recruiters - LPU becomes the favorite landing place for top recruiters like Cognizant Technology Solutions, Tech Mahindra, Capgemini, Amazon, Bosch Engineering, Tata Consultancy Services, Meditab, and many more! Cognizant hires over 2500+ LPU students in recent years - For Cognizant, LPU has been the destination to pick a market-ready workforce as it has selected 2500+ plus engineering students over the years. Good Luck!

Hi Ashish,
Both 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.
For scope and career prospects of civil and mechanical engineering, kindly refer the link below:
