Hello aspirant,

Mainly there are three ways in career options

  1. Going for industry jobs
  2. Going for academic jobs
  3. Going for research jobs in public sector

Industry jobs can give on campus placements  very less companies recruit Phd students .

Academic job there is very easy to get into private college like IIT/NIT .

Going to research in PSU you need to update on job and try to apply more jobs.

I hope this information may helps you,

Good Luck!!

Hello,

There are many career options after doing PhD in mechanical engineering.

After Phd you can make your career in the field of teaching. You can do job as a faculty in any of the good institute. Also you can get permanent job in government institution. These days UGC increase the pay scales and this is the best time to grab this opportunity. Also you can apply for a job in foreign companies or institute. The teaching line can give you extra benefit as you will have much time to do any work like part time work in companies or you can start part time work as side business. Last but not the least, apply for manufacturing jobs in foreign institute. Doctorate people from India are highly ranked overseas.

I hope this will help you.

All the best !!
