Scope of Engineering in India

Engineering is considered to be a discipline, an art and a profession that seeks to apply scientific
theory towards designing, developing and analyzing technological solutions. The major basic
branches of engineering are chemical, civil, electrical, mechanical & industrial engineering. All
other sub disciplines are considered to be combinations & extensions of the major branches of
engineering.

Here lets take a brief look at the scope of some of the leading branches of engineering offered
in various Bangalore Engineering Colleges.

Electrical / Electronics/ Communication (EEE/ EC): This is one of the fastest growing fields of
engineering & involves studying theory & practical application of electricity, electronics &
electromagnetism. It is also considered to be one of most interesting branches of engineering
as it involves a study of computers, electrical, electronics and communication.

With a BE/ BTech in Electrical engineering from Engineering colleges in Bangalore, you can
look forward to working in the following job roles:

Design Engineer
Quality Control Engineer
Test Engineer
Reliability Engineer
Software Engineer
Hardware engineer
Network Engineer
Telecommunications Engineer
Electrical/ Electronic Engineer

Electrical Engineers are in huge demand in India; you can look forward to working in both
private & public sectors like railways, civil aviation, electricity boards, utility companies,
electrical design, consultancy firms and different kinds of manufacturing industries. The salary
range would depend on the industry, location and your qualification & skills sets; however,
electrical engineers can earn stating average salary of about INR 430,000 per annum which gets
hiked as you gain more experience in this field.

Some of the leading employers of electrical engineers are:

ABB, Siemens, ONGC, Crompton Greaves Limited, BHEL, SAIL, Reliance, Wipro among many
others.
Computer Science (CS) / Information Technology ( IT) / Information Sciences ( IS): Software
engineering is the study & application of engineering to the design, development,
implementation and maintenance of software.

As you are aware, a career in the Information Technology sector is considered to be not only
high paying but also prestigious and is full of opportunities. According to NASSCOM figures,
Indian IT exports are expected to hit US $ 175 billion by 2020 hence there are huge
requirements for trained software /IT engineers. As the IT sector is quite broad in terms of
employment opportunities, candidates interested in programming & coding work as software
engineers & those who prefer networking & system administration can function as hardware
engineers.

With a BE/ BTech degree in CS/ IT/ IS from Top engineering colleges in Bangalore, you can look
forward to working in any of the following roles:

Software developers
System designers
System Analyst
Hardware Engineers
Software Testers
Network engineers
Quality Analysts

Based on the candidates skill sets, ability & qualifications, B/BTech holders can look forward to
median starting packages from INR 400,000- INR 600,000 and if they get deputed to overseas
projects they can earn in six figures. Due to global demand for IT services, valued at around USD
$ 70 trillion, many new and exciting international opportunities are opening up for IT graduates.

Some of the top MNCs hiring candidates in this domain are as below:

Google, Yahoo, HP, IBM, Apple, Infosys, Wipro, TCS, Sun Microsystems, Accenture, Dell among
many others.

Mechanical Engineering : Mechanical engineering is not only one of the oldest branches but is
also considered to be the mother branch of engineering. The application base of this field is
also extremely broad & diverse with mechanical engineers dealing with concepts in mechanics,
thermodynamics, robotics, structural analysis & fluid mechanics to design, test, maintain &
manufacture state of the art manufacturing units, motor vehicles, different aircraft & aerospace
parts and a vast assortment of industrial machinery.
If you choose to specialize in this branch, you could also focus on research in nanotechnology,
composite materials , bio medical applications, environmental conservation etc. With the ever
increasing scope of mechanical engineering, you would get into the financial & marketing
aspects of product development and also into people & resource management.

If you have a penchant for mechanical components, machinery & how they work, this field is
ideal for you.

With a BE/ BTech degree in Mechanical engineering from some of the Best Engineering
colleges in Bangalore, you can look forward to working in the following roles:

Mechanical Engineer
Production Engineer
R & D engineer
Thermal Engineer
Maintainence Engineer
Automotive Engineer
Marine Engineer
Aerospace Engineer

Based on the candidates skill sets, starting pay packets vary from Rs 300,000 to Rs 500,000
Lakh per annum which get incremented with work experience in this domain.

You can look forward to working with Automobile & auto part manufacturers, aerospace
industry, government sector industries, steel plants, shipping industry, the armed forces,
thermal plants, air conditioning & refrigeration industry etc.

There are several Engineering colleges in Bangalore under VTU offering all of the above
branches of BE/ BTech along with many other disciplines in Ranking Engineering Colleges in
Bangalore. There are several surveys available on Bangalore Engineering Colleges Ranking and
