Hi Vinit,

Both Electronic and communication engineering (ECE) and Electrical engineering are wonderful branches of engineering. In private sector the scope of ECE is more than Electrical engineering. In contrast, the number of vacancies available to Electrical engineers is more then vacancies available for ECE engineers.

Now considering PSUs recruitment, Electrical Engineering has more prospects then ECE. Although scope of ECE is rising it is less.

Thanks and feel free to ask more queries.

Both branches have different scopes and no one is less than the other. In fact most of the syllabus chapters are same.
As far as subjects are concerned both the branch have some common subjects like Control system, Analog and digital electronics, Embedded systems, Signal and systems, Circuit theory, Electromagnetic field theory etc.
Here are some PSUs for Electrical Engineering:

• Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC)
• Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd.
• Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL)
• Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL)
• Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL)
• National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC)
  Here are some for electronics:
  NPCIL, PGCIL, NTPC, DRDO, etc

Hey,

Everyone says don’t compare branches , just give answer yourself in which subject you are interested in. That’s true but coming to ECE and EEE half of the syllabus is same and most of the subjects are considered as electrical core subjects like analog,digital electronics ,signals, networks etc.

Now coming to PSU jobs are more ~ 1000/year and for ECE even 200/year is difficult.(just for comparison) . Coming to central govt jobs are more in EEE very very less in ECE around ratio of 1:20/1: 50 and sometime there might be vacancies.

In short advantages EEE - more govt jobs, central jobs, core companies, psu’s , IES vacancies, state govt jobs, power plant jobs with moderate competition compare to ECE. Only advantage of ECE is moderate chances in every field (IT, Core, Govt, PSU, IES).

Hope I solve your query.

All the best!!!
