Hello Vinit,

Both Electronic and communication engineering (ECE) and Electrical engineering are best branches of engineering. They open up a large number of opportunities to build career.

In private sector, the scope of ECE is more than Electrical engineering. In contrast, the number of vacancies available to Electrical engineers is more than vacancies available for ECE engineers. ECE engineers have more prospects in the IT sector. Though this is almost same for Electrical but is lesser.

Now considering PSUs recruitment, Electrical Engineering has more prospects then ECE. Compared to ECE the number of vacancies arising for PSU is more for Electrical engineering than for ECE engineers( Just for comparison we can say if Electrical has 1000 vacancies then ECE qill have around 200 or 300. Although scope of ECE is rising it is less even now.

I hope that it helps you.

hello aspirant,

you should know that Government sector jobs are open for electrical Engineers as well.

A ECE student can join railway as assistant signal& telecommunication engineer through UPSC civil services exam. you can also apply for BSNL JTO,ISRO,DRDO,BEL.,Bank Probationary Officer.

from a EE student perspective-

To get into psu's you have to qualify gate. And getting into PSU's in electrical engineering is just like a dream come true.

You can try for state electricity board jobs and in the gridco's jobs like NESCO,CESU etc

hope that helps

all the best
