Sir This is an engineering related question. My son, per se , is unsure about his career path. However, he wants to do engineering because he likes maths and physics. He does not enjoy coding and is therefore unsure about what would be a good engineering field for himself. My question, is what are the options thay he should consider? . Also does elctronics and or yelecommunication foelds involve a lot of coding? Thank you
Ans: It’s very common for students to be unsure about their exact career path at this stage, where there are so many branches.
It’s a great starting point that your son enjoys maths and physics. That’s a strong foundation for most engineering fields. Now, since he doesn't enjoy coding, it’s wise to explore branches that are more hardware or core-concept oriented rather than software-heavy.
Here are a few good options he can consider:
1. Mechanical Engineering – This is a broad and core branch. It deals with machines, structures, materials, and design. It involves problem-solving, physics, and mathematics, with minimal coding. Great if he enjoys how things work physically.
2. Civil Engineering – Focuses on construction, infrastructure, and design of buildings, roads, bridges, etc. It’s more field- and design-oriented, and rarely involves coding.
3. Electrical Engineering – Involves circuits, power systems, and electronics. Some parts may involve programming (like embedded systems), but it’s not coding-heavy unless he specializes in automation or similar fields.
4. Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering – This can involve a fair bit of coding depending on what he chooses later. For example, if he goes into embedded systems or signal processing, there will be programming. But if he sticks to core electronics, circuit design, or communication theory, it’s less so. That said, in today’s world, a little bit of coding is slowly becoming a part of most branches, but it’s not central in all of them.
5. Engineering Physics or Instrumentation – These are niche areas with strong focus on core physics and instrumentation, again with limited coding, depending on the specialization.

Hello sir ,I'm thinking of taking a drop but not for jee as it is not my cup of tea given I have 6months also I want to pursue cse and getting cse in top nit bit we need 99 98 97 percentile..which I don't think I can do if I see it practically i scored 40 percentile this year and 12th boards i scored 65% but I'm very keen to learn coding that's why I want to pursue cse engg from a good college I was thinking of taking a drop for comedk and viteee and cuet(just for options). And focusing entirely on fundamentals so I won't have any problem during my engg and comedk so that I can atleast do engg from bms and ramiah and all, is it a good option because I'm confirmed on taking a drop as I'm not getting a good pvt college this year and if I have to give jee then I have to give improvement too as I don't fulfill 75% criteria
Ans: Hello dear.
There are a lot of concerns regarding you. Here is the point-wise reply: (1) Do not take a drop for JEE. (2) Take admission to CSE in any reputed or tier 2 college via management quota to save one year. (3) As you are interested in coding, you can easily learn it with the CSE syllabus. (4) If you become an expert in coding and programming, you will get opportunities based on your skills, not based on the college or university from which you completed your UG course. (5) In life, nothing is impossible. You can learn anything through online or offline methods nowadays. So why take a drop? (6) Be confident in yourself. Success is within reach. There is plenty of evidence that candidates are working in top positions after completing their UG from tier 2 or tier 3 colleges in rural areas.
Best of luck.
