Dear Applicant,

I hope you are doing well, about your question. If you are not happy with mechanical drop it and joint a frest course in IT. This is 1 way you can achieve your goals.

2nd option is try placements in IT companies where you will get the required training in coding concepts. Many mech graduates are placed in ECE and IT industries so if you are good enough than you will be about to work in IT fields

Another option would be taking up online certification courses  this will not only help you to boost your knowledge but even help you to build up your resume for better placements. Try to gain all the necessary knowledge in programming that will help you alot.

Hope this helps all the best.
