Ans: Rajesh Sir, Students who prefer non-software roles can consider Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE), Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Civil Engineering, and Chemical Engineering. ECE offers versatile careers in semiconductor design, telecommunications, and embedded systems with placement rates around 75–95%. Mechanical Engineering leads to roles in automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing; top institutes report ~88–91% placement. Electrical Engineering graduates find opportunities in power systems, renewable energy, and automation, with 78–93% placement at premier colleges. Civil Engineering involves infrastructure, construction, and urban planning but has the lowest IIT placement rate (~57%) due to many pursuing higher studies. Chemical Engineering opens careers in process design, pharmaceuticals, and energy, with ~92–95% placement at leading institutions. Evaluate personal interests—design systems, machines, power grids, structures, or processes—and industry trends when choosing. The recommendation is to select the branch aligning with your son’s strengths, whether ECE for electronics and communication, Mechanical for machinery, Electrical for power, Civil for infrastructure, or Chemical for process industries. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
