Ans: Before answering your question in detail, my suggestion is for you to avoid forcing him what you expect him to pursue. Now coming to your question: Choosing between ECE at SRM Kattankulathur and CSE at Amrita Bengaluru/Coimbatore depends on balancing passion and institutional strengths. SRM’s ECE offers robust infrastructure, diverse recruiters (ABB, Cuemath), and opportunities in core electronics, though placements are more varied compared to CSE. Amrita Bengaluru’s CSE provides strong industry ties (Cisco, Google) and alignment with IT trends, while Amrita Coimbatore’s ECE emphasizes research and core roles with access to specialized projects. If your son is genuinely passionate about electronics, opting for ECE at SRM or Amrita Coimbatore allows him to thrive academically and pursue niche roles or interdisciplinary shifts (e.g., embedded systems, IoT). However, CSE at Amrita Bengaluru ensures broader IT exposure. Prioritize his interest in ECE, as motivation drives performance and skill development, enabling transitions to tech domains later. Institutional reputation and industry networks support both paths, but aligning with his passion fosters long-term success. All the BEST for your son's Admission & Prosperous Future!
