SCOPE OF COMPUTER SCIENCE ENGINEERING

For those of you who are still confused about your aptitude and would prefer to go with a course that has better options and opportunities in comparison with others, here is a guide on computer science, which I believe is the field for both tomorrow and today. Now this aspect is quite important as certain courses that offer high potential for the future may not have developed up to par at the present and vice versa. I think Computer Science is the best course for 2014.

How does one sense that he/she has an aptitude for Computer Science? The first and foremost point to be kept in mind is that Computer Science is a breed of science that constitutes of numerous fields and areas within which one can prosper and master. In a student point of view, ranging from gaming graphical designing, applications programming, web development, embedded systems, etc are a handful among a pool. So your aptitude might be in compliance with one field or another, no need to worry. Generally If you are good at logic, you love to solve mind-boggling problems, Computer Science is waiting for you. But then, most kids nowadays are acquainted with a computer from school days itself. Hence it is an easy process to locate the aptitude in Computer Science. Kids who play with software often end up in a Computer Science classroom (or in a start-up in Silicon Valley!).

Once you have opted for Computer Science, the foremost point to be remembered is staying updated is the most difficult yet important virtue here. One should make sure that he/she is getting to know the recent developments and innovations happening around in their area. It is equally important that one starts to experiment with his/her personal computer. What is being taught in a classroom is probably less important when compared to the knowledge you are supposed to gather from parallel sources like internet, during the course time. It is a pressing issue that it is high time that our universities start to rebuild their curriculum, as in most institutions the courses are way more than outdated. In this scenario it becomes far more important that one starts to learn current gadgets from the web. The fact I understood is that one's profile should be good. Every student undergoes internships during their course and for you to get an upper hand in placements it is always better to do internships abroad during your engineering course.

Computer Science offers a variety of options and opportunities on course completion. The obvious option of getting employed in software sector is quite alive, as more and more opportunities are getting created on a regular basis. Apart from that, computer science enthusiasts and graduates are also placed in a variety of sectors including Information Technology,  System Administration and Banking. The option that I would like to stress here is about getting into having a start-up as in numerous cases proved to be the path breaking decision. Students are more into doing their own work, realizing their own visions and build their own enterprise rather than getting employed in a pre-established firm. It seems as our youngsters are getting to like the risk and passion involved in the process. Besides, the technical/programming skills that one possesses also accommodate the opportunities to work while students, providing a good deal of pocket money and invaluable experience alongside. Moreover, it is quite evident that the end of computer era is not likely to happen in the near/distant future as computers are only being replaced by better computers. A computer professional hence only need to get involved with the evolving technology and he has a place somewhere in the corporate framework. 

Almost half the engineers irrespective of the course they have done happen to join IT companies. So why not opt Computer Science engineering, get a good base and then join IT companies so that you have an upper hand compared with other engineers coming from different branches. The initial pay and the increase in pay over the years for computer science engineers are too high and attractive compared with other engineers working in core companies such as manufacturing, automobile, etc. To sum up, Computer Science is a demanding yet fruitful course that returns multiple times the result for the effort to put in. Just get to love these immensely powerful yet friendly machines and they are sure to safeguard your future once and ever. 

 You can also go for higher studies such as M.Tech or MS to make your career firm. But If you are going for M.Tech i highly recommend to do it in IIT's and NIT's. You can also do MS in India and abroad as well. M.Tech mainly consists of engineering while MS consists of engineering and research (a lot). The scope of doing MS abroad is so high (especially in Europe). The facility is great and the research over there is too good. The basic criteria to do MS abroad is writing Graduate Record Examination (GRE) and get a good score. Next is English proficiency tests such as IELTS, TOEFL etc. Get atleast 6.5 out of 9 to get admission in colleges abroad. To do MS is US or Uk is too high and it is not easy to extend your visa after your course. But you can also do post graduation cheaply but with more value.
