Branch and College Selection Guide

Understanding your course options helps you choose with clarity and confidence

Why Choose Civil Engineering

This is a wonderful course and almost every college have good infrastructure for this, both in terms of faculty and laboratories. On the other hand, this is really a tough job which involves going to sites and taking care of construction management stuff. You cannot make good money in this field if you are working for someone and starting own company needs good investment and contacts, which is difficult for a common Indian family.

Why Choose Computer Science Engineering (CSE)

The infrastructure required for these courses is very easy to provide and if teaching is not good at college, finding a tutor outside, even in a small town, is not a problem.

If you are to ultimately land up in a software company, there is no logic in going for other courses, especially if seats in Computer Science or IT are available. On the other hand, if there is no seats in the Computer Science Engineering or IT department of your desired college, you can take up a seat in branches like EEE or ECE as well. We have more software companies than any other companies. These companies pay good salaries and also give a chance for foreign assignments that will further enhance your personal and professional skills. However, it must be kept in mind that when Google, Microsoft and other top companies come for campus interviews, they don’t allow any other streams than CS and IT.

In non-core branches like CSE or IT, you can get good and fast growth in the IT Sector as compared to government sector. At the same time, jobs are not secured in the IT Sector as compared to in government sector.

Why Choose Electronics and Electrical Engineering (EEE)

Electronics and Electrical Engineering is a highly job-oriented course. But when it comes to faculty and practical experiments, most of the colleges do not have sufficient infrastructure. Moreover, after finishing the course, most of these engineers work in software companies as there isn’t sufficient companies who work in core areas of Electronics and Electrical Engineering. Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) too has similar issues.

The advantage of these core branches (Civil, Mechanical, Electrical) is that there are lots of government and public sector jobs for these branches. Though there are government jobs for non-core branches as well, the number of posts for non-core branches in government sector is generally low.

Why Choose Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE)

ELECTRONIC ENGINEERS are concerned with electronic components, integrated circuits and microprocessors. They design, fabricate, test, maintain and supervise the manufacture of electronic equipments.

Job Opportunities: Electronics and Communication Engineers are acquired by top recruiters (both private and government) like DMRC, Siemens, Motorola, Intel, Texas Instruments, BEL, ISRO, DRDO, Accenture, Wipro, HCL Technologies, nVIDIA, Samsung, Tech Mahindra, Infosys, TCS, Conexant, MTNL, AIR, BSNL, Indian Air force, Indian Navy, Railways, Bharat Electronics Ltd and Flextronics and Philips Electronics.

Why Choose Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering shares many challenges with Civil Engineering, including frequent outdoor work and extensive project management responsibilities. Professionals in both fields often conduct on-site inspections, supervise installations, and troubleshoot issues under varying weather conditions. Mechanical Engineers, in particular, work with heavy machinery, industrial equipment, and HVAC systems, requiring hands-on involvement in factories, construction sites, or remote locations. Additionally, they must manage tasks such as client and contractor coordination, compliance with safety standards, and budget and timeline oversight. The dynamic nature of the job demands adaptability, technical expertise, and strong leadership and communication skills to ensure successful project execution, much like in Civil Engineering.
