hello aspirant,
now-a-days companies are hiring students from the core branches i.e. students from the electronics department, many of the colleges are also removing the instrumentation branch as well.
the subjects in electronics department and instrumentation department are some what same, so, if you are looking for better placements , go for core branches.
hope that helps
