Hi snehita, if you want to go for a job in MNCs and private companies it is one of the best branch for your career option but for Government jobs it is not a good option. IT branch have a decent chance of getting placement. So overall it is a good option for your career. Good luck

IT engineers help to meet their employer's needs for computer hardware, software and networking tools. They work to develop, test, install, configure and troubleshoot computer hardware and software.. IT engineers typically work in an office or research lab.

Hello Snehitha,

IT(Information Technology) is one of the good branch of engineering. Placement from this branch is also good. There are so many MNCs working in software field those recruit IT and computer science students every year in a huge number. As you are interested to study in computer related field and as you have already get chance to take admission in a government engineering college then you should not change it.

Study attentively in IT branch and after completion of your engineering there must be good campus placement from your college as it is government college. So I think you will be placed in a company after immediate completion of your engineering. So you should not be confused now. You get a good opportunity to study in government college you should not miss it.

Now a days may be software industry in not running in a well conditioned. Still there are lots of opportunities and they recruit a big number of candidates every year. Some of the top software companies are TCS, CTS, Infosys, Wipro and many more. This situation will not run for a long time. They will recover very soon. May be when you will pass out from engineering then there will be good market in software field. Then you will get very good opportunity.

As you are interested in computer related study then there is no question coming to go for re-counseling. Because IT is study on computer related course. It is almost similar with computer science engineering. So just don't be confused. Study hard with attentiveness. Surely you will get good opportunity in future.

Best of luck.
