which branch is better chemical or CS
Hello aspirant,
Both chemical engineering and computer engineering are viable possibilities, but computer science always wins in terms of scope. Because the field has such a broad scope and demand. Furthermore, you can expect very good college placements for CSE rather than chemistry in any reasonable college. Furthermore, the pay packages will be competitive. Chemical engineers are also well-versed in the design, operation, troubleshooting, and safety of unit operations in a variety of industries such as oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food processing, and fertilisers. In computer engineering, the starting income is 3-4 lakhs per year, while the top salary can reach 14-15 lakhs. A chemical engineer may expect to earn an average beginning income of 240,000, with the highest wages exceeding 12,00,000 per year. So, in essence, computer. So cs is a better option but I suggest you to look at your interest and focus on it .

Thank you
Hope this information helps you.
Hello student,
Let's start off by reviewing some statistics:
- There are around 3500 engineering colleges in India as a whole.
- The total number of engineering graduates per year is over 1.5 million.
- There are over 3400 engineering institutes in India that offer CS engineering.
- There are over 130 engineering institutes in India that provide chemical engineering (including all IITs, NITs)
*Note: All information is based on 2014–15 and may change somewhat.
The data now make it quite evident that there is less competition for chemical engineers while there are also less job opportunities.
Scope - A chemical engineer can work in the manufacturing sector, such as the sugar, paper, pharmaceutical, textile, power, oil & gas, and water and wastewater treatment industries, as well as the information technology (IT) sector (as these days, IT sectors are hiring other stream's engineers, so if you have basic knowledge in language and coding there are very strong chances to get into IT sectors). However, CS Engineers are more prevalent in the manufacturing sector.
Opportunities : Getting a job and getting a better job are actually two separate things. If you are a computer science engineer, there are many work options, but there is also a great need for the same. If you are a chemical engineer, you will have extremely few possibilities in your field and fewer competitors.
Market fluctuations- Since this is another important component that has an impact on the employment situation, the market fluctuation. In the case of the IT sector, it is quite erratic because the market situation was extremely poor in 2009–2010, but it progressively improved and at this time, all the industry giants have produced enormous employment prospects. Additionally, they intend to develop possibilities in the upcoming years, but one thing must always be considered: the population to job opportunity ratio. The least popular branch of engineering, but one that is evergreen, does not suffer as much from market fluctuations, which is not the case with chemical engineering. The only catch is that you might have to wait longer to acquire greater prospects.
So, in conclusion, I would want to suggest that both streams offer superior career opportunities, but you should choose based on your subject interest rather than choosing based on that. Because you will undoubtedly enjoy and work hard if you choose a subject that actually interests you. Following which, you will achieve academic success, which will eventually benefit you in terms of job advancement.
Even if something works for someone else, it doesn't necessarily guarantee that it will work for you.
You’ll only excel if you put enough efforts to make yourself shine.
Hope this helps,
Thank you
