Hi, My daughter is doing B.Arch from Mumbai University. This is her final year. Now She wans to M.Arch in US. She has received admission confirmation from North Eastern University, Boston , South California Institute of Architect (SAI-ARCH) , Los Angles and Illonios Institute of Technology, Chicago. Can you suggest which is the better University for M.Arch. ?

Ans: Jashn, Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) is heavily based on both mathematics and physics; a solid understanding of these subjects is crucial to grasp core concepts like circuit theory, signals, and electromagnetic fields. If you are good at mathematics but average in physics, you may find ECE challenging, as physics plays a significant role in understanding hardware and communication systems.

However, if your strength in mathematics is strong, it can help you manage the applied math components in ECE. Still, you should be prepared to improve your physics understanding to succeed. Alternatively, if you prefer less physics-intensive study and more software-oriented work, Computer Science Engineering (CSE) might be a better fit, focusing more on programming and algorithms with less emphasis on physics.

ECE requires good grasp of both math and physics, so being average in physics means you’ll need extra effort. If you prefer to leverage your math skills with less physics, consider CSE instead. All the best for your admission and a bright future!
