The Dilemma You Face While Choosing an Engineering Course

I remember what happened to me.

After completing my 10+2, I appeared for the common entrance test conducted in my state for entrance in different engineering colleges.

Once my ranking was known I had to appear for the counselling. There I had to choose a branch and a college if I was ever going to become an engineer.

I remember those days very vividly.

I had to attend many rounds of counseling in coming days. I was looking for the best college with my favorite branch.

In the end I had to satisfy with a college and the branch I would like to graduate in. I gave preference to the branch over my college while I was choosing a seat.

You need to decide before the counseling what branch or course you are going to choose.

Whether it is electrical, mechanical, electronic etc you have to decide very early on.

I was accompanied by my parents while the counseling was going on. We both agreed upon the branch and college and then finally we chose a course.

Few Tips Before You Choose an Engineering Course

So what do to? Well I will recommend you going after the branch.

3. Your Interest Vs Jobs Prospects

Again there are branches which are evergreen and they can give you jobs right after you complete the course. Branches like electronic and communication, mechanical, electrical etc are very high in demand.

However it happens you don’t like them and your interest is in some other branch like Textile or Biotechnology.

So which one do you prefer? My suggestion is that you need to follow your passion.

4. Post Graduation Opportunities

Choose branch that has great prospects. It means you can do post graduation or PhD later if you like.

So make a wise decision.
