I have completed my diploma in mechanical engineering now I am thinking to do btech what do you suggest to do
Ans: Deciding whether to pursue a Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) degree after completing your diploma in mechanical engineering depends on several factors, including your career goals, personal circumstances, and aspirations. A B.Tech. degree can significantly enhance your career prospects and open up opportunities for higher-level positions, increased responsibilities, and better salary packages. With a B.Tech. degree, you may have access to a broader range of job roles and industries compared to having just a diploma. B.Tech programs often offer opportunities for specialization in specific areas of mechanical engineering, such as automotive engineering, aerospace engineering, thermal engineering, manufacturing engineering, or robotics. Consider your interests and career goals when choosing a specialization that aligns with your aspirations. In many industries, having a B.Tech. degree is considered a standard qualification for engineering roles, and it may be a requirement for certain positions or career advancements. Holding a B.Tech. degree can enhance your credibility and professional recognition within the field of mechanical engineering. Pursuing a B.Tech. degree provides you with a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of mechanical engineering concepts, principles, and applications compared to a diploma program. You'll have access to advanced coursework, laboratory facilities, and faculty expertise that can enrich your learning experience. Many B.Tech programs offer flexible study options, including part-time, evening, or online classes, which can allow you to continue working while pursuing your degree. Consider the flexibility of different B.Tech. programs and how they align with your current commitments and lifestyle. Evaluate the cost of pursuing a B.Tech. degree, including tuition fees, study materials, and other expenses. Consider whether you have the financial resources to support your education or if you'll need to explore scholarships, financial aid, or student loans to fund your studies. 

Ultimately, the decision to pursue a B.Tech. degree after completing your diploma in mechanical engineering depends on your individual goals, interests, and circumstances. Take the time to weigh the pros and cons, explore different B.Tech. programs, and consider how each option aligns with your aspirations for your career in mechanical engineering.

Hello Sir, At present I am appearing Class 12 boards. I want to do research work in human psychology as my career. In which discipline I should do my Bachelors for the same? Is doing MBBS is the only way to reach out in research field? Thanks
Ans: Hi,
Kindly formulate your query in a detailed manner so that the experts on Rediff can provide you with better solutions. If you don’t provide enough information, it will be difficult for them to assist you, as the gurus need to make informed predictions to answer your question. This platform is more transparent than others because you can see the profiles of the experts available here. Therefore, be open and provide precise details. Please note that the platform does not require personal information, and you can post your questions anonymously if you prefer.

Undergraduate (UG) degrees provide foundational knowledge, including how to conduct research. In postgraduate (PG) studies, you generally build on those basics. After completing your PG studies, you can engage in research, either full-time or by pursuing a PhD.

An MBBS degree is also just a basic qualification and is not the only gateway into the research field. You can conduct research in a variety of fields, including arts.

If you are particularly interested in human psychology, gather basic information on the topic and proceed accordingly. There are various aspects of human psychology, so consider which area you would like to specialize in and plan your path from there.

ALL THE BEST

POOCHO. LIFE CHANGE KARO.

Relationship
I have a crush on my colleague recently. We started as a friend but one day we get drunk on one of colleague house. We talk about life and love. I asked about his ex. He told his past relationship story how they break up. I also shared some of my past situationship. We live in a same colony. So we came back home together getting drunk I told him you can lean ur head on my shoulder. And he suddenly lean his head on my shoulder and he was sleeping and I wake him up when we reached our destination. He takes me to my house and I suddenly hold his wrist. I don't why did I hold him and next morning he yes hi (call my name)how are you I didn't respond properly I'm just like yeah good after that he seems to avoid me a lot he didn't talk to me much I caught him looking at me sometimes but it might be coincidence. I think he doesn't like me
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand it must all be very confusing but I would suggest not jumping to conclusions. You think he doesn’t like you, but he might be thinking the same since you did not respond to him properly the next day. That could have triggered his current behavior. If you have feelings for him or if you even miss him as a friend, I would recommend you to clear the air with him. Just talk it out- you can explain how things got a little heavy the other day and that’s why you didn’t speak to him nicely and apologize if that made him feel bad. If even after that he continues to avoid you, then you will have better clarity.

Hope this helps.
