SCOPE OF CIVIL ENGINEERING INDIA

Engineering is one of the most important fields in the world today; and civil engineering is the one that is at the foremost and can get you a job easily. It is the oldest branch which is still one of the relevant ones. With new buildings springing up every day, there are scores of jobs for civil engineers- graduates fresh and experienced alike, can easily find a job that is to their liking. Therefore, it is not hard to believe the high demand to join for a civil engineering course today. The job aspects come from small contractors to large ones; government agencies such as PWD, etc; consultancies and what not. The top companies include Shapoorji & Pallonji, Shobha Developers, L&T, DLF; and the list is endless. The fact i understood is that ones profile must be good. Every student undergoes internship during their course and for you to be outstanding and to get an upper hand in placements it is always better to do internship abroad during your engineering course.

Most people consider civil engineering to be about building skyscrapers and bridges. But it is not that alone. It is one of the vastest subjects today and include so may aspects and specializations to it. It is not called the mother of engineering just for the heck of it.

One of the most common aspects would be construction engineering and management; in which everything regarding construction is dealt with. Various management techniques and how it is carried out are addressed. This is the aspect that people are most familiar with. People are used to civil engineers hard in hard hats holding various drawings and leading construction teams.

Structural engineering is the facet of civil engineering that has made the skyscrapers possible. Structural engineers make sure that all the elements of a building, dam, or any such structure, are strong enough to do the designated work. Transportation engineering is the part in which road design and traffic analysis are done. It is where all the basic planning for the country's transport system is done. Geotechnical engineering deals with soil and rock, and how they affect construction, and it also deals with landscaping and ground improvement. Geotechnical engineering also is used to help design and maintain tunnels and underground structures. Water resources engineering is another aspect of civil engineering which is gaining importance. It deals with anything and everything related to water. Environmental engineering has come into huge importance today due to lack of waste management and their affects on the environment.

It is no wonder that the need for civil engineers has grown considerably in the last few years thanks to the growing needs of the present generation. The scope of civil engineering is vast; with so many specializations to choose from and so many jobs to pick from. And the oldest branch is not going to go out of fashion any time soon...

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.

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.

WHAT IS CHEMICAL ENGINEERING?

Chemical engineering is the application of the principles of physical sciences together with the principles of economics and human relations to fields that pertain directly to processes and process equipments in which matter is treated to effect a change of state, energy content or composition. In Layman words it is concerned with the transformation of raw materials into useful products making use of chemical conversions and physical operations. The chemical engineers use the technologies developed by the chemists in laboratories for the commercial production of a wide variety of materials. Chemical engineers must develop, design and engineer both the complete process and the equipment used, choose the proper raw materials, operate the plant efficiently, safely and economically and see that the products are up to the standards of the consumers.

Chemical engineering is not chemistry alone. Along with chemistry a sound knowledge mechanics, physics and mathematics are must. A +2 student opting chemical engineering must have a good aptitude for solving problems. He or she must have a good base in stoichiometry (a must), kinetics and physics. Along with the knowledge the students should take it as their career option if they have an interest towards it or else the subjects become quite dry. Some of the main subjects that students have to learn during the course are stoichiometry and process calculations, heat transfer operations, mass transfer operations, chemical reaction engineering, chemical thermodynamics, process design, process control system, optimization etc. During the course we can see many subjects that we have in common with mechanical engineering. But the major difference is that we are more interested in the reactions that takes place inside the reactors, the conversion yields etc. A common fear that the work conditions of chemical engineers are hazardous is a fluke. Chemical engineers work in safe environment and direct contact with chemicals is minimum.
