My son is presently doing XI science, what branch of engineering has better job prospect electronic, cs or mechanical or any other branch as I am unable to guide him myself.

Ans: Considering his diverse interests and preference for hands-on projects, Mechatronics Engineering might be the best fit. He can use his knowledge in Data Science in different applications in Engineering. Encouraging him to look into specific programs at IITs and other top engineering colleges that offer these interdisciplinary fields will help him find a program that aligns with his interests and career aspirations.

Ans: Go for Mechanical Engineering at MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology, Bangalore

Ans: If he wants stable government jobs (PSUs like ISRO, DRDO, BHEL, ONGC, BEL, etc.) → Both ME and ECE are equally good.

If he wants a high-paying career in India (private sector) → ECE is better (VLSI, semiconductor, telecom are booming).

If he wants international opportunities (Germany, US, Japan) → Mechanical is good for automotive/aerospace, but ECE is better for semiconductors.

If he is interested in future technology (Quantum, AI hardware, 6G, IoT, Chip Design) → ECE has a clear edge.

If he enjoys hands-on work (machinery, engines, aerodynamics) → Mechanical suits him better.

For best career growth and salary: ECE (core sector like VLSI, 5G, semiconductor, telecommunications, embedded systems).

For passion in classical physics and machines: ME (with specialization in Robotics, Aerospace, or Renewable Energy).
