Most of the students who have taken up Science in

their higher secondary or Pre-Universities are

confused thinking if they should take up Engineering
or something else. In India alone, every year, more
than 15 lakh students graduate as engineers. Over the
years, there has been a rapid increase in the number
of government and private colleges offering a
plethora of courses.
 Engineers are in Great Demand: A lot of students are fascinated seeing the
technology impact in the society, may it be a robot or fighter jet plane or an
awesome app in their smartphone.

 I did not clear Medical cut-off! I will take up engineering?: Another valid but
unfortunate reason for people taking up engineering is either because they do
not want to get in to medicine or they did not get a merit seat in medical
entrance exams.

 Are you forced to take up Engineering due to Family and Financial

Pressure? In India, it is not a surprise if your parents or relatives decide what
career you must choose. At times, if you want to take up Commerce or Arts,
you are literally disowned in the family. Let your kids decide what he or she
wants to do!

 Change the world attitude: Engineers contribute positively in one or many

way to improve the livelihood and it’s a great feeling to be a problem solver.
 Great Rewards And Opportunities

 Studying engineering brings prestige

 Ready for any problem

 Can Work from anywhere in the world

 If you’re not good at maths or logic, engineering is
not for you

 Hard work is not limited to Cracking entrance and

confirming a seat

 Get out of your comfort zone to learn better

 Am from middle class. Hence plan your expenses

well.
You are excited to do engineering but have you done your
HOME WORK?
Teenagers have very less idea about what a course exactly
has to offer. 30-40 percentage of today’s engineer have no
idea why they took engineering and are doing work which
has nothing to do with engineering.
For example:
▪ If you want to become pilot doesn’t mean you need to do
aeronautical engineering.
▪ If you want to build a sports car doesn’t mean you need to do
automobile engineering etc.
▪ if you want to be a hacker, doesn’t mean you must learn computer
science engineering.
▪ Few also assume that if you take up IT, it means coding only. Check
out Career options if you take computer related branched but do
not like coding
Firstly, clearly understand what courses are
available; what are the various subjects and
chapters available and then decide if that interests
you to learn. It’s your career and not a food in
restaurant or a short vacation to a nearby city.
Spare some time, consult with well wishers, take up
career counselling sessions, learn about the course
offerings and then enrol yourself. It’s better to suffer
now than regret forever by doing some boring job.
 Only few Branches have scope. What should I
take? Opportunities are available is all the
streams provided you have the right skills in the
respective fields.
 Can you do anything else in-spite of taking up
engineering? An engineering degree doesn’t just
teach you how to be a great engineer, but rather a
great manager, businessman, and entrepreneur.
There is a saying, “In India People take up
engineering first and then figure out what to do
with their life”.
 Engineers receive appealing packages just after they
graduate: When it comes to job openings In Bangalore, an
fresher’s average salary comes to around 3-4 lakhs per annum
for Mass recruitment companies such as Infosys, HPE,
Mindtree, TCS etc. However, if you are really good, do
something amazingly cool and innovative, you definitely stand
a chance to gain better packages.

 Engineering first, MBA Next: If you can combine technical

expertise with adaptable management abilities and a global
perspective, there’s no limit to where an engineering degree
can take you but I would rather suggest to work for few years
after Engineering and then based on your career growth pursue
post graduation program.
 Whatever you learn can directly be applied in
Industries: Theoretical knowledge is good but is
not going to help you reach greater heights. One
must have interest in the subject and be
passionate about applying the theory learnt into
various projects.
 Is Engineering really worth it? Lot of my friends struggle
to get a job! There is nothing like being an Engineer in this
technology advanced era but engineering is not just an
educational degree that you can pursue like others. It
involves a lot of efforts and if you are not interested in
investing your sweat and blood it will not be easy for you to
get over it.
To conclude, an engineering degree gives you
not just theoretical knowledge but also
build your many analytical skills, logical
skills and improvise your problem solving
techniques which can be applied in a wide
range of industries and at various entry
levels in an organisation.
