- Is India Falling Out of Love with Engineering? | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Today is India's national "Engineer's Day". It is observed on the birth anniversary of M. Visvesvaraya. India's love affair with engineering is as well known as its engineers.
For many, engineering colleges are a gateway to success. But competition is fierce all the way. Now, fewer students are passing engineering courses compared to 2022.
Government data says almost half of India's engineering undergraduates are unemployable. Why is that? Palki Sharma tells you more.

मैडम आप एक ऐसा रिपोर्ट तैयार करिए जिसमें बताया जाए कि यूपीए कांग्रेस सरकार के काल में 2005 साल में कितने इंजीनियरिंग कॉलेज थे और उसके बाद अचानक २००६-२००७से इंजीनियरिंग कॉलेज की संख्या कैसे बढ गई और वह प्राइवेट कॉलेज किसको चलाने के लिए दिए गए, उसके लाइसेंस किसको दिए गए , यह बहुत बड़ा स्कैम किया है यूपीए के कांग्रेस के सरकार ने , ऐसी जगह में इंजीनियरिंग कॉलेज दिए गए जहां न लैब थी ना टीचर थे न लाइब्रेरी थी फिर भी इंजीनियरिंग कॉलेज चलते थे अभी पिछले दो -चार सालों में वह सब कॉलेज बंद पड़ गए हैं, यही इंजीनियरिंग को खत्म करने के लिए डिसीजन जो यूपीए सरकार मे लिया गया जिम्मेदार है
Yes Lakshya, but dignity needs to be earned. In last four five decades every professional started running after money and hence lost dignity. I remember earlier every professional was followed by Saheb for example Vakil Saheb, Doctor Saheb, Engineer Saheb but now money has eaten Saheb hence no dignity.
Honestly, the drop in numbers for engineering enrollments should be seen as a positive. It means that India is truly diversifying in opportunities and engineering need not be the only way Indians succeed in their pursuit to build the nation!
Good point but the world is facing the robots and AI who are replacing human engineers and other work force, not just India.
There is a deep dive one has to take before arriving at the conclusion you stated. Has the drop in engineering enrollments come in parallel to a rise in non-engineering enrollments? Is it possible that students just didn't enroll at all? Also, are the students employable in non-engineering fields and is there a job market for the same? These are some questions that have to be thought about before we conclude whether this is a positive.
I feel the education system has failed to a large extent, and parallelly, the job market has not expanded at the rate it should have. Many deep issues have to be addressed to mitigate this.
@@siddhikantmishra No, we didn't conclude anything. It's just a thought of the reason might be for the drop in student enrollment for engineering and also the drop in job market.
@@siddhikantmishra❤
True I am sick of Engineering
Palki narrates the news so well. She first makes a long speech about the popularity of engineering, and lists the world-renowned Indian engineers, then an interlude about the current challenges and difficulties encountered by engineers, and, finally, shows the dropping enrollment numbers of engineering students and the bleak job prospects for them.
Robots not engr very sad
Job prospects are an issue for all fields though we need humanity, permanent govt job from sweaper to scientist is the biggest issue

It has to be said, this lady is very engaging with bringing the facts without boring you. Very engaging method indeed
As of today ( Sept, 24, 2023), China can make 7nm semiconductor chips while India can make 7mm chips (potato chips).
1 mm = 1000000 nm． Conclusion: India needs engineers.
Engineering is hard. It is not for everyone. In the past, students chose to pursue engineering without knowing what they are signing up to. This produced terrible bad engineers in quality. So the decrease in number is a good thing. High school students must explore several career options and choose the one that they REALLY WANT.
Exactly
If you observe closely there is no other option except Engineering, Medical or CA Foundation after high school, If you compare employibility still then these are far more employable than arts degree holder
We have extremely bad teachers in engineering except few colleges
@@amaldev4150This country is overpopulated. Every field you enter has thousands of people competing for same position. The cost Of education is increasing every year. It's bound to happen parents are scared for there kida
Types of engineering students in India:
1. Ones who join out of passion
2. Ones who join out of societal and parental pressure
3. Ones who join following the herd
4. Ones who join for social status
As an African engineer who graduated from Indian university, one thing is for sure, u can learn better education from a privately owned programming tuition than from ur own university. I was lucky enough to find mentors who shaped my career but most of my classmate students unfortunately were not lucky enough to pass let alone be employable.
Only the institutes managed by central government bodies and a handful of state managed & private engineering colleges offer quality education. Rest all are substandard.
Proves you barely know anything about the Indian education system. It totally depends on which university you studied in, there are the premiere institutions that churn out geniuses like IITs, IISc and IISERs, then there are a few top NITs and some good central Universities, these are the institutions that are highest in demand in the country and all are under the central government. They provide great education, alumni like Sundar Pichai who go on to be CEO of companies like Google. People study like crazy to get into these institutions and only after they fail they choose to go to private institutions in India. Ofcourse there are a few great private institutions too but can't be compared to IITs.
Then there are the other universities/engineering institutions that are quite subpar, that advertise a lot trying to rope in international students and Indians alike but aren't actually any good.
That's the way forward
@@harshitabhuyan8892u r naive to assume that i know nothing about indian education system, I'm more familiar than many indians if i may say so.
I do know IITs are super competitive and highly rated schooling platform but that also doesn't guarantee it will produce employable talent.
I'm based in a western country now, i do work with an IIT graduate and a tier 3 graduate, both are in same experience but the IIT guy is the least one to contribute on our team and most dumb ( not saying it literally but I mean takes him alot of time to understand simple thing).
So i do know what I'm talking about.
I graduated from tier 3 university, to be honest most of my classmate students will need at least 1 extra year of training to be employable, that was my point.
@@coderahmed6158 No. IITs along with some other institutions (Like NITs, BITS Pilani, etc) are the only few that are able to churn out the employable talents. Selecting the best students might be a factor. But not the rest of Indian engineering colleges, that have plagued hook and corner of the country. Majority of Engineering graduates in India are from those colleges only and not the IITs or other equivalent group of institutions. Neither these institutions are very credible nor are the students entering into them. Today not anyone can get into IIT, but everyone, literally everyone, can be an engineer.
I feel,engineering graduates from most of the colleges don't get very highly paying jobs and we still use text books which were used during our father's time and there is a gap between colleges and Industry expectation.
Even in west most Mech & Civil Eng has 60s- 80s theories texts etc( note its from my study time& matter of fact observations/ chats during next 10+ yrs & I don't remember having similar chats on this issue last 10-15 yrs as it wasn't a regular topic of discussions) , Except computer analysis programs standard of these field's changed somewhat regurlaly, in my observation, inldn CAD CAM, Quality, Manufacturig etc, also wing aerodynamics analysis softwres etc are updated every several (5-10+/-) yrs so.
Madam, my analysis 👇🏻
In India, marketing and sales get higher importance than actual engineering. Electronics and computer guys somehow get into their field but lool at mechanical, automotive, civil guys. They complete engineering but most of them work in marketing, business development in their respective streams as they getbetter pay for those jobs along with travels and lot of other perks. Where as those who get into engineering work at very low salaries. Sometime their condition is pathetic. Yes this is a issue in India. Companies especially Indiam companies should be innovation centric that supports in providing better rewards for engineers.
civil is most wasted stream where engineers are hired as labours salary while businesses have formed cartel to keep salaries low in the sector..
@@whitepanda95That's better than Electrical Engineers because the grid in India is government owned and only take few Engineers on permanent basis through competitive exams.
@@Traderking1990 Where are you from?
@@whitepanda95 seriously!!
Engineering education seriously needs to be reformed.
It's essential for syllabus designers to structure it in a way that guarantees a minimum of 60% is aligned with current opportunities, while the remaining 40% is open for students to choose as elective coursework.
Yes but every current technology isn't good . Plus how much is it practical?
Engineering is hard. Computer science demands constant learning, discipline and fast adaptation. There is over supply and less demand which makes it a poor career choice.
Students after 12 are always super excited for CS engineering. By the time they are in 3rd year , they realize how much sacrifice it requires.
Never ending supply is the main problem in engineering. you are replaceable any given day. In short term your career could be okay but in long term the competition will make you sick.
You will realize just surviving in CS IT sector as you age will become so hard cause you'll be replaceable by any young talent.
Excellent analysis
If you don't have the aptitude and passion, engineering will be a nightmare.
I am from Editorial background. I first witnessed a dip in Engineering jobs when my cousin who was more than five years older than me sitting idle at home after completing his B.E. He was a bright student then. When he casually asked me what group I would be taking in 11th, I mentioned the Commerce group since I don't have any interest in Science. He mocked me for opting for such a group. I casually asked him if he wanted me to take the Science group and be unemployed like him. It has been more than 15 years since I graduated and still neither the fees of Engineering have gone down nor have Engineering jobs gone up. I currently work as a Copy Editor in a Publishing company. 90% of my colleagues are either from Science or Engineering background. This is the situation. So there is nothing to wonder as students ignore Engineering. They are in the right path.
I am mechanical engineer from a state institute.
Currently working as ld assistant at state secretariat.
Got engineering out of my head as soon as I graduated because I knew I wouldn’t be a good engineer. Trying to become a state civil servant.
Right choice. 👍
But look at the west etc have a more liberal mind otherwise we suck
Has India fallen out of love with engineering? No, the love is still there. The job market has changed.
In the u.s. a lot of kids don't want to go to college. They think it's a waste of money, because they most likely will not get into the job of their field.
It doesn't matter. What matters is having a minimum of a bachelor's degree.
I went to college for electrical engineering. When I got out of college, it took me 6 years before I found a job in my field.
Just getting a bachelors degree in any discipline is not really much helpful either. It's important to pick a major that's in demand, and engineering is one such major (because as long as we have civilization, we will need to build and improve things). So, of course, it does matter.
I don't mean to sound harsh, but if it took you 6 years to find the first job in your field after getting a degree in EE, then the problem is you (I'm curious who gave you a job anyway, because I'm not sure how much knowledge one can retain 6 years after graduating). There's a lot of demand for good EEs, because it's not an easy field, so finding good engineers is difficult. I'm in this field myself, that's how I know.
The cost of Going to college is extremely high in US IT'S just that many household cannot afford it. It's crime that we tell 17 yo kids to take thousands of dollars is debt
@@krox477
At the end of the day, you only have yourself to blame for your life.
Those who want something bad enough, will do what they need to achieve it.
@@BonBonShrimpyou do have a v one sides,logic ,look at the qualitative indicators over there
other news channel busy on religious debate whereas as she covers important issue of INDIA , its true journalism
The reason for drop in engineering enrollment is not due to it becoming unpopular but due to opportunities in other fields like biology, software etc which didn't exist before. It is good that the drop will mean that the quality increases.
Thank you for your service Miss Sharma🌟👍
Well-done... Palki... A critical analysis on an existential issue....
In india, in most of the engineer colleges, engineering means placements, if you have other dreams like being an inventor, forget about it.
These are the Issues which should raise by media , thankyou ma'am🙏
A two-way problem. Most engineering graduates are not qualified engineers. On the other hand, only IT and associated sectors pay well. The industry people want talented mechanical engineers to join for salaries of 7-8 LPA.
if you are an actually talented mechanical engineer starting is probably closer to 15-20. But yeah just learning some programming and being a slightly above average software engineer is a better prospect than being a top class mechanical or chemical one.
@@tarunyadav3567true. You can also climb ranks easily/, quickly in IT sectors. My friend passed out with Comp eng degree 2 years ago abd now he's a project manager of sorts. Not sure about his role but he says he's a manager. He only did programming for a year or maybe even less
I know my friends who were gate india toppers and department toppers at iisc. They got placed with 15 LPA. Other departments like center for product design gets paid better. There is no market for people who can works with differential equation
@@sudhanvabhat3100 damn seriously!? What department were they majored in?
at IITk last year Jaguar had 21 LPA and Tata projects had 16 LPA for bachelors. SLB had a 33 LPA package but I believe that was an oil rig job which is rare and unappealing for other reasons. That's like 7 total people for mech core. Meanwhile others easily landed 25+ jobs as data analysts, software developers etc. Really very little incentive from industry to try. Only people interested in research pursue core engineering
Excellent analysis. Thank you.
I worked in STEM in the US before I retired
many of my colleagues were engineers and scientists from India.
I too work for STEM. Still working. Happy to hear..
In India, non-IT Engineers have low salary and fewer opportunities. I earn 542 $ per month and the company management says that because we don't have software experience ( Embedded/DSP programming), hence core Engineers deserve a low salary. The company also doesn't train and we are only allowed to do documentation works instead of skill upgrading. I would never suggest non-IT Engineering to my son unless he study that from the tier 1 colleges in India or abroad.
@@indrarider5506Software or non-IT ?
@@Traderking1990 software, programming, innovation field.
Drop in enrollment is very positive,
We have too many colleges run by politicians, builders or some damn business• quality of education is also poor
I was surprised when my college going son told me he calls a newly launched offroader Btech SUV.
When asked to clarify,he said it is just like Btech,it is one which people will buy who have no other option.
It was an eye opener .
Indians is good at cooking better most of them apply as a chief and spread all in the world restaurants😊❤
Each & every field of study is more prominent for a country's thriving economy. So I hope this descending is for a huge leap in the near future. Happy engineer's day.
Excellent report on current scenario of engineering
It is now all about software engineer. Tier 3 engineering colleges trains each branch student to be a software engineer. They have their training and placement cell.
Great🎉🎉🎉
Well articulated!
Palki Madam, you are impressively tactful as to choosing news stories and letting us know, keep it up, these kind of stories I love to hear.
dont worry, these indian enginners will make world best indian companies one day soon.
we need rapid transformation in higher studies, each passing day, we r losing, as we r not providing, what can be done very easily.
Being a mech. Engg. Graduate i can say one thing reforms are much needed in engg. Courses rather than rotting the syllabus the practical approach and problem solving skills should be improved and curriculum should be according to what industry demands rather than studying the old one which is obsolete now days.
At this point, mech ain't even worth it. It's saddening to see what's happened to this field. Explains why many engineers wind up doing absolutely anything but engineering.
Maybe it's because the loss of seats of older engineering branches like Civil , Metallury, Marine etc .
Still In my school class 12 A & B Maths students are 100+ Bio only 26 😂😂 & other 12th commerce are 100+ & Girls are in majority in Bio, Very few Indians are choosing Medical which is due to Mountainous Fees of MBBS in our country
This is amusing and foolish, to say the least. Now there are degrees where one needs to be excellent in both Math and Biology. Welcome to the new world. You cannot ignore one over the other.
Babu I am Neet Educator at a reputed coaching institute and believe me more students are in Neet and I get more paycheque than Math teacher , chemistry and Physics, cause engineers are in high supply.
God not an IITian but work with them and get paid more than them. Never thought this would be my reality😅
"Mountainous fees of MBBS in our country" ......U can complete your entire 5.5 yrs of MBBS at AIIMS in 5000 INR. For the last 1 yr u also get about 28k per month as a stipend. In other colleges the total cost would be around 70k for entire 5.5 years of MBBS.
@@Remy4556 Wtf I was talking about Private which don't need marks above 610 in Neet starting price are 1cr then it goes 1.25cr, 1.5cr, 2cr, 2.5cr. You are talking like everyone can study in AIIMS Delhi which don't have seats more than 200 😂😂 & forget so called General Castes like Us.
Neet has the most demand in recent years. Engineering has become a more of a burden than boon for most people nowadays. The course is exceptionally tough and the pay grade isn't worth it. Many engineers are now unemployed especially after covid with companies and start ups failing and hiring less engineers, laying off employees. Engineering is 90% trouble and 10% result. It's not worth it
I would like to add a perspective here. When Ma'am said that 60% of IIT Bombay grads went for non core jobs, she failed to take into account the fact that a lot of IITians are going for consulting and Investment banking jobs. Not because they cannot find jobs in their own fields, but because the consult/IB roles pay 5x over.
Indeed, they choose finance, business management, start-ups (irrelevant to their studies), coatching centers and IT over core engineering.
Yes that's true..
When I subscribed to FirstPost, I thought I'd be getting more news from around the world, it's turning out to be an Indian News Channel
Well said
Yes this is true, neet aspirants are more than engineering aspirants and I am a Neet Educator at India's top institute.
neet educator??? is your job all about an exam ?
@@killerthoughts6150 a exam which is your most important one after your 12th boards deciding your career.
Now a days most of the engineers are bankers and most of the arts, social science ,commerce students are preparing for such banks and other such types of exams .
As a 2020 pass out from Media, who would have otherwise gone to engineering, problem is people go for Engineering just to become anything else but core Engineers. Which is a waste of talent and their hard work in that field. Instead they go for banking, or Computer Science even if they are from Mechanical or Chemical field.
I have therefore more pride in IISCs they produce what they are made for, instead of over glamourising a course it should be important we make dedicated but amazing youth in their fields. Imagine with our mech engineers what all manufacturing feats we would achieve if they chose their field for career.
I joined Media and Advertising as a job and trust me you do well if you have talent and work hard. Not getting into IIT IS NOT END OF LIFE. You can do good if not better in a field where India needs you.
Other professions are looked down upon , it’s more about social status. A bitter pill to swallow 😢
Prestigious careers as per India logic:
1. Engineer
2. Doctor
3. CA
4. Lawyer
5. UPSC
Humanities is the Way ahead for making Bharat- Vishwaguru,dear Palki Madam. Jai Maa Bharati
It's fundamentally a complex issue, in india there is a huge disconnect between engineering education institution (except a few iit's , nit's )and industry. Moreover the last few years saw a huge demand in I.T space but other discipline lost It's course of direction. Further the hands on experience opportunity is not really promoted by industry at large. This could turn out to a threat for indian economic growth pace. Policy maker's should step out of the ivory tower and get their hands dirty at ground before the go on education Policy especially for STEM.
I have searched jobs in my core mechanical for2 years and gave n numbers of interviews before deciding to switch to IT field and now when i look back its a good choice as many of my friends almost have no jobs or jobs with low pay
Problem with core branches are there are no decent jobs with pays , specially mechanical and its sub branches , thats reason we are not good at manufacturing .
It is good sign that people are looking for other options as low quality institutions will close down
Palki Bhagini,
Please make a show showing importance of Gurukul system and also introduce Maitreyee Gurukul from Moorkaje Karnataka. I have my twins studying in Gurukul. It's one sacred place where they believe food boarding education should never be sold. It's not easy for parents or for children to make 12 years education happen . Buts it's the ideal place where children learn Maths, Science, Sanskrit and many more knowledge life skills. This is exactly similar to Gurukul system existed 200 years back where thousands existed..now they are in single digit.
Hoping to see you with with subject some day on First Post.
With best regards,
Sudha Vaidya
Please share Data of Commerce and Artrs Background students too. How many of them are getting placed ?
thank god
You , also need to promote Enterprinership. Every field is changing drastically.
It is not just India Palki.
In USA, 50% of Engineering students drop out. The percentage is higher for females.
You spoke my, heart out palki. You are beacon of hope for news viewers like us who like to analyse on what being said than just listen and forget. Keep going
He's not a friend to call as M Visveshwara but 'Sir M Visvesvaraya' with respect and right pronounciation.
Ouch! It hurts as an engineer!!😣
It's good 😊
Yes and thats a good call...only quality engineer will now b there
Pedigree is everything, you get into a Harvard, Stanford, Yale and Princeton and you are set for life. Pedigree leads to major $$.
Acceptance rate of IIT is 1% not 5%.
Everyone is bored with the methods on how it is taught with the concepts and how they are being treated after getting the degree
Thanks for the report Palki Mam :).. challenges faced by students in enrolling and completing the course is true and also wrt to employability numbers..
the report could have been more detailed and comprehensive,if the aspect of why there are less numbers in enrollment? Is it with Engineering that the students have fallen out,or only some couple of programs? statistics of student enrollment in,let say:UG civil, mechanical engineering to UG Computer Science,data science,AI and variants..could give a better view of things..just feel if anything,numbers in these branches would be in the uptick...
And finally,just out of respect and recognising the immense contributions of the man,on whose birthdate this Engineers day is celebrated,it is not M.Vishweshwaraya..its Sir M Vishweshwaraiya..saying or not saying is left to the choice of the individual or was desired by the man himself,i guess..
It is a disturbing vicious circle.
Are they unemployable because of a glut in the market or because of the free-falling of standards, they are underpaid or unemployed?
Our education is more driven towards grades ,gpa,halfyearly annualy exam than to build the future of 🇮🇳
Britishers have destroyed the our vedic education system
Sad
There are not enough engineering jobs in India. Everyone says there is a lack of skilled engineers in India, but no one blames the recruitment process of IT companies, these guys select people based on 10th and 12th marks which have nothing to do with IT and not how technically sound someone is. And these same companies then cry India doesn't have skilled engineers. 😂
but I noticed the quality of education is improving .. I checked many new eng graduates.. they are far better than our generation ..
Every indian engineer should be of the caliber of Dr. Visveshwarayya..
Yes
Why don’t they change the number of seats for each discipline depending on the market demand ?
Quality matters no matter what the quantity is but unlike buying a 2 tier fighter jet which is cheap but needs servicing after every few flights , for engineers u need to think abt long term benefits in which most of the undergraduates lack n obviously the education sys which should evolve every 2 years.
Palki make a 'vantage' on how UP villages are still not having tap water facility. A true patriot will do that.
People selling pakoda, chai in streets earn better than Engineers in India.. That's the reality..😢 Lots of engineering seats in kerala state is lying vacant..(Not IITs or Govt Colleges )
That is very true. Ever since Computer science and IT subject started appearing and students started getting good package the flow to other branches of engineering declined. You can't blame new subject for declining the rush but the environment of working with payment did the rest. Even better salary can't give air-conditioned atmosphere to civil engineer working in field in hot sun and rain and so dirty shop floor of mechanical engineering factory. Difficult but a fact.
But still we need to think societally we need dignity for professions
Just joined engineering this year :)
Due to Reservations, below average students are entering the Engg Colleges and hence, unemployable.
Quality over quantity
How prestigious used to be a BE earlier ..be it mech electrical or electronics and used to occupy high position like GM in prestigious production public ..govt sector..leading as head of the organisation . The Allahabad university BE student made records of the excellence and reached to top position like vehicle factory ..ordinance depots and at US in NASA . Thats why in toto factuals and graphic figures mentioned do reflect truth of the todays engineering studies . Subh kaamnayeyn.
1st year of engineering is very diverse curriculum, Agri,mecha,civil, information,computer,electricalor electronics,these day biotech...IITs best students ( after that rest bit forced to do engineering there is problem , lack of awareness...karna kya hai ) , most of the people study probably we will get good job ..
Doctor's and lawyers next
Engineering may have it's problems in India, but better enrollment in STEM courses and investment in STEM jobs is important to make India an advanced economy.
Jaihind 🇮🇳
India is making theoretical engineers than more practical one it's so sad
My guess us there's less enrollment in engineering because lots of students opt to go abroad for further studies right after 12 grade.
This is because of high population, demand and supply gap, education is a big business here in India.
Ther's one more issue that affects india& many other Asian & other continents Unis is their standards need to be raised up compare to international standards, in one vlog Sunak's Billionair F in law says (that I read of also) that none of IIT or other Ind Unis make the top 300 world rankings while China, HK, Sngpr, Jpn, etc has several in top100, also I was told that even IIT has expanded to 20+ Unis now & become diluted further lower from original 5 of them
💯
kya kehna chah rhi
Creating more engineering Students doesn't do justice neither with country nor with the students. If only those who actually studying engineering with their passion will create value for the country or the world. And those who fails will find another way to go ahead in life. But parents also need to be aware of the fact that failing in engineering doesn't mean they failed in life. Ideas are born where there is no fear and right environment is provided.
Still when will that be the reality of India, look at some comments above
Things may be a tiny bit better now, but I graduated from a major university with a degree in Mechanical Engineering without having made a single product. Our Engineering program needs to be restructured with a focus on being able to create products.. Most graduates dont have the ability to make a product as simple as a screw. Know an engineer? ask them
Quality over quantity. I heard that India produces more engineers than the Western Europe and what we have to show for it.
many new branches have emerged in the past decade...designing.
Looks like India could not compete with China anytime soon. India's leaders should lead the way to encourage India's engineers to advance and to utilize their education and skills.
in this upcoming age of Ai machines are replacing engineers , I used to recruit 10 guys now because of Midjourney and leonardo ai that became 2.
SKILL INDIA
IIT Brands were builts by our old faculty members, students.
Engineers can become anyone they can dream of beyond just being an engineer - they can go back to school to get other degrees easily to be lawyers, journalists, doctors, sales and marketers, teachers, entrepreneurs sporstmen, politician, even literature/history/anthropology if they want to etc... but hard to go the other way. Engineers learn logic, STEM. People take their degree and job as type set. Need to view it like what creative recipe can I create given my degree and skills. We are good at making varieties of good masala for food - why not with work/jobs?
Plz do enlighten me as to how an engineer can become a doctor
@@Remy4556 study for tests and join med school. Many do it and I have two in my family.
Also, one of my classmates is doing research in IVC history and anthropology after being a successful engineering career. You do not have to get stuck in one place but figure what your passion, interest and your calling. Degrees are just a stepping stone to start your career - that's all. You do not have to be stuck with it forever.
Striker that's possible is you are sitting on pile of wealth, study this study that do this that, many study to get job with loan and they don't get job and finally have no way to pay loan..
It's good, more colleges need to shut down because it's those college management's greed which caused this fate to engineering courses. These scraps are useful only to those who some how need a b tech /BE certificate they neither have the infrastructure nor they pay their teachers properly but always collect fee from students without due😇
Please make video on Government Jobs
Well it's a good new India never needed Engineers in such huge quantity.
Field like Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, Electronics are literally dying due to craze of CS
Same...fields in Medicine like Dental Science, Veterinary, Ayurveda are literally non-existent bcoz of craze for MBBS.
Its actually sad that we Indians ourselves are ignoring Ayurveda when the whole world is praising its benefits.
Now is the time for designers
