I recommend internships to be done abroad during your engineering course rather than doing it in your country. Now a days there a lot of engineers and there is no job for all the engineers. So how are you going to be different from them? Every engineering student during their engineering course undergoes internships and industrial visits. So for you to be different from the rest undergo an internship abroad. You can meet different people from different cultures and you will get better exposure. You can also do industrial visits during your internship.
Everyone wish to do internships abroad but they just don't know where to begin. They
search for internship in search engines but are not satisfied. IAESTE
is the where you have to begin. The International Association for the
Exchange of Students for Technical Experience (IAESTE) is a student
exchange organisation that provides students in technical degrees
(primarily Science, Engineering and the applied arts) with paid,
course-related, training abroad and employers with highly skilled,
highly motivated trainees, for long or short term projects. More than 80 countries are involved and exchanging over 4000 traineeships
each year worldwide. Each country participating in this program has
IAESTE committees through which the exchange is done. In India, Karunya University and MIT are the two IAESTE committees. Be a member in the committee and you can apply for paid internship abroad. Sometimes offers for non-members are also available.
But those who didn't get selected for internship abroad through IAESTE should not be disapointed because there is another way. Different types of internships can be done according to the course that you have done or you are doing. You can send emails to professors of colleges abroad that has a research department of your choice. You get selected according to the project and seminar that you have done and your aggregate marks. I recommend Europe for doing internship because there are many technical colleges which has research department. If you are lucky they may reply. Then ask about housing expenses etc. If you are lucky they will fund you your housing expenses and medical expenses. They will do everything for the visa work. Internship can be from 1 week to 6 months. You may even get paid for the internship and may even give you a job for you to join after your engineering course. Every engineering curriculum has a time period for doing internship. If you have been selected to do internship please discuss with your course tutor. If everything is fine you are lucky. I have written previously about "best country to do internship".

Have you ever thought about studying abroad where you could meet people coming from different cultures? At least have you thought of visiting a country of another continent and have fun? Well it is a dream in almost everyone's mind and it is not easy to rub it off. Well then why don't you study abroad. Well its too expensive and not affordable. To study in UK or US, an expense of at least 25 lakhs (50,000$) is incurred. Its because the tuition fee and living expense is high. How about a country where the tuition fee is nil? Shocked?
Well it is true and Germany is the country you are looking for. There are two types of colleges in Germany. They are government colleges and private colleges. In private colleges there is tuition fee and it is about 10-15 lakhs (30,000$). Well in government colleges the tuition fee is free. It is because the population is less compared to the resources and the government follows a centrally distributed system. It is free for international students too. Certain colleges have tuition fee which is a small amount and it depends on the course you are opting.
Courses are taken in English and German. You can choose the right study program that suits you. If you know German you can easily find a part time job and you can earn. There are scholarships too which takes care of your expenses like housing, medical etc. That means you can study there absolutely free and can earn too. There are courses which starts either on winter or summer. The number of colleges available on winter is high compared to that on summer.
Application forms can be downloaded from college sites and you can send your resumes along with the the filled application form. Since the tuition fee is free a lot of students apply from different countries and so you must atleast have 7/10 CGPA and should be good in extra curricular activities. If your marks is below 7 then you should write IELTS, GRE etc and get good score in it to compensate your CGPA mark. Writing IELTS, GRE etc depends upon the collegere quirements. There are different types of projects that you can do during your engineering course and remember that the project you choose is a criteria for selecting you.

It depends on the course. If you did engineering, then i would recommend Europe. Because there it is easy to get placed in a company. In other countries like USA it is expensive and they will send you back just after your internship because they give preference to their citizens. It is not easy to extend your visa.
I would suggest Germany because there the resources are more and the population is less. They need more manpower and the probability of getting a job there is high and there are a many companies in Germany. The rush towards Germany for doing internship is increasing rapidly. Surveys shows that Germany is the safest country to study and work.
There are a lot of technical colleges in Germany. Almost every technical college has a research department where interns are required. They prefer international students with good academics. Send your resumes to the head of respective departments. You should email the professors with a good format. If you are selected then you are lucky because you just have to pay your flight tickets. Everything else is free including accommodation, food etc. You will also get a stipend every month. With this stipend you can travel around in Europe and visit famous places like Paris etc.

POST GRADUATION CHEAPLY BUT WITH MORE VALUE
DIFFERENT TYPES OF PROJECTS FOR ENGINEERING
You can find me in Google.
I have written about production engineering in my previous post. First you have to understand the fact that production B.Tech is equivalent to mechanical B.Tech. So you can apply for mechanical job posts. May be you are worried because there is no news of job openings for production engineers in South India. This is because in south India, companies fill the posts for production engineers with mechanical engineers. This doesn't mean they do not take production engineers. It is just due to lack of production engineers. This is because there is just less colleges in south India which gives production B.Tech degree. But in north India companies need only production engineers to fill production posts. So scope is not less because you can fill both production and mechanical posts. Its best to get work experience of 2 years in a company and then try for a job abroad. The pay scale will be more and it is easy to get settled there.
Scope of production engineering is much more than you can think. Usually in multinational companies a production engineer controls a manufacturing department etc. That means mechanical engineers comes under a production engineer. Please don't misunderstand that a mechanical engineer is below a production engineer. It is just that a production engineer with high grade pay always comes top(in the management area).
There are lot of openings in different countries. Experience is the base of all.Try to get more experience, then job offers and pay scale increases. A few fields where production engineer get placed are :
- Automobile companies- For inspection, quality control, operation of automated equipments etc.
- Manufacturing industries- For inspection, quality control, operation of automated equipments, to control assembly line, production management etc.
- Food processing industries- For inspection, quality control, Production management etc.
- Railways- Manufacturing processes and its control etc.
- Process industries.
- Space and other research organizations.
- Government and private companies.
- Defense.
- IT companies.
Each subject that you study during your course can get you a job and therefore focus a little on the concepts and during the course you will certainly love a subject or two. For example i fell in love with Industrial Automation and Inspection & Quality control. Therefore i understood what kind of jobs i should seek and so i searched and found a few companies relating to my interests. I kept visiting those sites to see notifications of job openings. One thing i understood is that you should have a good profile. Every student undergoes internship during their course and for you to be unique and to get an upper hand in placements its always better to do internship abroad during your engineering course. There are a lot of companies in India and around the world who hires production engineers.
I will mention a few companies who requires production engineer :
- NALCO
- SAIL
- TATA STEEL
- TCIL
- TATA MOTORS
- VOLVO
- SYNTHITE
- ONGC
- FACT
- ISRO
- AIRFORCE (TECHNICAL ENGINEER)
- HAL etc.
I haven't mentioned any IT companies because all IT companies take engineers( irrespective of their branch). You can also go for higher studies to make your career firm. It is always beneficiary for a production engineer to opt MBA as his higher studies. I as a production engineer prefer MBA because we mainly get placed in production management etc. It is because unlike other branches production involves a lot of management. So MBA is going to help you a lot. Its better to get a work experience of 2 years in a manufacturing or core company and then go for MBA. If you have a work experience of 3 years in any manufacturing or core companies then you can also go for executive MBA which unlike other MBA's can be completed in 1 year( because of your work experience).
But If you are interested in the technical side so much then you can go for M.Tech. You
should write GATE exam and obtain good score to do M.Tech in IIT's and
NIT's in India. You also need good GATE score to get placed in core
companies such as BHEL, SAIL, NTPC etc( Navaratna companies). But If you are going for M.Tech i highly recommend to do it in IIT's or 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 write Graduate Record Examination (GRE) and get a good score. Next is English proficiency tests such as IELTS, TOEFL etc. Get atleast 6.5 out 9 to get admissions in college abroad. To do MS in US or UK is too high its not easy to extend your visa after your course. But you can also do post graduation cheaply but with more value.

What is bio-medical engineering? What is its scope? You know that a bio-medical engineer deals with the sales and services of medical equipments. So there will be a huge scope in bio-medical engineering until world arrives to a situation where no hospitals are functional. If you are a little business minded you can make a huge profit in the sales section of medical equipments. My friend worked as a salesman of medical equipments for 2 months. Now he started his own business of distributing. He is making a huge profit.
Well in India the scope of bio-medical engineering is not that much compared to mechanical engineering or civil engineering. For boys its fine because they can go for sales and servicing. For girls it is best to go for research, design and development etc. For that you have to get into a research institute which is not that easy. Bio-medical engineering has a huge scope abroad compared to the scope in India. There is scope in India and you can find a job because there are lots of hospitals and clinics but its not easy to get a very good start. And if you are into sales, it takes time for you to start your own distribution unless you are that good.
Bio-medical engineers are employed in industries,hospitals, research faculties of educational and medical institutes, in teaching, and in government regulatory agencies.You have a lot of scope in the servicing section because now a days its hard to find engineers for servicing. Just consider a country and imagine the number of hospitals, dental clinics, health clinics etc. Nothing functions without medical equipments. And every equipments need periodic servicing. Bio- medical engineers are also required in all medical clinics and hospitals for routine and breakdown maintenance. The work that comes under this are acceptance testing, maintenance planning, risk analysis,routine calibration, preventive maintenance, repairs, maintaining inventory of spare parts etc. The other works are design, development and research of devices, technologies etc. This includes modifying the existing equipment, software development, networking etc.
If you are interested in the research field, that too is good because everyone are trying to invent medical equipments which are flexible, reliable and easy to use. You can go for higher studies or internships. You can opt for M.Tech, MS or MBA. You can also do post graduation cheaply but with more value.

What is electronics and communication engineering? What is its scope? Scope of electronics and communication engineering or EC engineering is huge because modern technology uses electronics, chips, transistors, fibre optics etc and you know that an EC engineer deals with all of these. Scope of EC engineering is so vast that it is applied in every field. The development of the world which includes every area such as telecommunication, satellite, microelectronics, technology etc are all based on electronics engineering. Electronics has also helped in developing health care, automation, signal processing etc. Few fields where electronic engineers get placed are :
- In medical field- Almost all medical equipments are electronic so for the installation and maintenance of those equipments.
- In automobile- The speed dial, air bag systems etc are all based on electronics.
- In modern equipments- For the production, maintenance and repair of computers, laptops, tabs, mobiles etc.
- In communication- Radio,telephones etc.
- In government and private companies- Installation, operation and maintenance of electronics equipments and systems.
- Defence- For design and development of complex devices and systems for signal processing and telecommunication.
- Space and other research organisations- For design and development of complex devices and systems for signal processing and telecommunication.
- Electronic industries- Design and fabrication of devices, embedded systems, electronic equipments etc.
- Process industries- For instrumentation and control of electronic devices.
- IT companies- They are well preferred as IT professionals.
- Manufacturing- PCB, IC etc.
A lot of EC students end up in software companies. During your course try to understand the concepts and go in depth, only then can you get into a core company. Almost every student undergoes internship during their course. But for you to be unique and to get an upper hand in placements its always better to do internship abroad during your engineering course. In India there are a lot of companies who hire EC engineers. Try to go for multinational companies if possible. You can only get into these companies if you have a good profile and always visit their official sites for any notifications for vacancies.
I will mention a few companies who requires EC engineers :
- BSNL
- LG
- SAMSUNG
- SONY ERICSON
- NOKIA
- PHILIPS
- PANASONIC
- ISRO
- DRDO
- BHEL
- NTPC
- BARC
- SAIL
- ELECTRICITY BOARD
- RAILWAY DEPARTMENT etc.
I haven't mentioned any IT companies because every IT companies hire EC engineers like TCS, Infosys etc. You can also go for higher studies to make your career strong. In India you can go for M.Tech in IIT's and NIT's. For that you must appear for the GATE exam and get a good score. Even if you are not interested in doing higher studies, your GATE score is going to a get you a good job because a lot of government companies consider your GATE score. You can also go for MS in India or anroad but the expense to do it abroad is high. Well if you are planning to do MS then better do it abroad because in India the value is less. MS is mainly engineering and research whereas M.Tech is just engineering. You can choose according to your taste. You can also do post graduation cheaply but with more value.

A few people have a misconception about aeronautical engineering.
"Will i be able to fly an airplane one day?" will be the first thing a
student who is planning to join a UG course thinks. He/she will ask
someone about the doubt and the person explains that there are not
many opportunities because there are a lot of pilots these days. Well
the truth is that you become an aeronautical engineer after the course
and not a pilot. Well to be a pilot you should join a
flying/aviation center and get a flying license (can do after school).
A lot of companies hire aeronautical engineers to do the following work :
- For the construction of aircrafts
- For the testing purposes such as efficiency testing, flight testing etc
- For the design purposes such as airframe design, engine design etc
- For the maintenance of aircrafts
- For the functioning of aircrafts
- For the manufacturing of aircrafts
- For investigation purposes such as airplane crashes, impact on environment etc
- AS flight controllers or air traffic controllers.
The companies which hire aeronautical engineers are
commercial aviation companies, space research agencies, civil aviation,
research centers (industrial, government and academic). Few of the top
companies which employ aeronautical engineers are
- Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL)
- Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)
- Defense Research and Development Organisation (DRDO)
- National Aeronautical Lab (NAL)
- Airline companies such as Indian Airlines, Spicejet etc
The job of an aeronautical engineer is a very prestigious one
and the pay is very good. It should be every engineers dream to get
into NASA. A lot of Indian aeronautical engineers has accomplished their
dream of getting into NASA. Try to join the top Indian colleges if
possible. IISc and few IIT's have aeronautical engineering. Other
colleges (not all) which offer aeronautical engineering are
GATE, Hindustan college of engineering, Punjab engineering college, S.C
Moitra Air Technical Training Institute, IIST (trivandram), BIT (mesra)
etc. There are a lot of colleges in Tamil Nadu. You can also go for
higher studies to get more knowledge and to increase your pay and
chances of getting into top companies of the world. You can also go for a
flying course after aeronautical engineering to be a pilot. You can also do post graduation cheaply but with more value.
