Hi Aspirant!

We need both a civil engineer and an electrical engineer to thrive in this world.

Civil engineering is the study of the design, construction, and maintenance of a built environment. A civil engineer's salary ranges up to Rs. 6-8 lakhs per annum. The scope of this program is,

  • Engineering Project Managers
  • Senior Civil Engineer
  • Engineering Managers
  • Civil Engineer
  • Architect
  • Engineering Inspectors and Regulatory Officers
  • Civil Engineering Drafter
  • Civil Engineering Technologist

Electronics and communications engineering are a program fall under the category of electrical engineering that is about the use of electrical components to design electronic devices and their systems. An electrical engineer's salary ranges up to Rs. 5-10 lakhs per annum. The scope of the program is,

  • Electronics Engineer
  • Field Test Engineer
  • Network Planning Engineer
  • Electronics and Communications Consultant
  • Customer Support Engineer
  • Electronics Technician
  • Associate Firstline Technician
  • Research and Development Software Engineer
  • Service Engineer
  • Senior Sales Manager
  • Technical Director

Both have advantages and disadvantages. If you work hard, you can get a job in Central and State Government or even start up your firm. Now, it's your choice to choose between these programs.

Thank you.

Hello Aspirant,

Both the branches , Civil and ECE are very good owing to its subject topics,  scope, placement, knowledge gain, college campus, etc are all very good for both these branches.

Civil Engineering is the branch that particularly requires a good hand in drawing basics, and deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of works such as roads, bridges, canals, dams, airports, sewerage systems, pipelines, structural components of buildings, and railways. Mostly you need skills like decision making, problem solving, maths, communication,etc

While for ECE branch, you must be well equipped with the basics of electronics. Also, ECE engineers involves researching, designing, developing and testing of electronic equipment used in various systems of electrical and electronic gadgets.

Lastly, it all depends upon your interest. If you have more interest in drawing, maths, building management, geography science,etc then civil is good . But if you have interest in electrical, circuits, electronic gadgets, devices and its making,etc then ECE branch is good .

Hope that helps. Good luck

Hello

Its totally depend on yoir interest. If an individual likes construction of roads, bridges, buildings then he should prefer civil. While if an individual interested in information and communication, software related then he should prefer ece .

For civil it become difficult to get placed in civil engineering companies untill if you are not studying in very good college. And it is fine if you are going for higher studies.

For ece there are plenty of opportunities in placement and also for higher studies.

Good Luck..
