Which engineering degree is actually worth it in India in 2025?
In this deep-dive video, I analyze and rank 22+ engineering branches offered across Indian colleges into four categories: Legend, Good, Average, and Avoid-at-all-costs.
The ranking is based on:
Job opportunities (core vs non-core)
Campus placement and average packages
Government and private sector demand
Future scope: AI, sustainability, automation, global trends
Difficulty level and cost vs ROI
Real feedback from students and industry professionals
🔍 Pros and Cons of Major Engineering Branches:
1. Computer Science (CSE)
Pros: Highest demand, high packages, remote work, global scope
Cons: Extreme competition, rapidly changing tech
2. Information Technology (IT)
Pros: Similar to CSE, more flexible in curriculum
Cons: Considered “lighter” by some companies
3. Electronics & Communication (ECE)
Pros: Diverse options (tech, telecom, embedded systems)
Cons: Placements mostly non-core, tough core subjects
4. Electrical Engineering
Pros: PSU scope, evergreen demand
Cons: Core jobs limited, needs strong math/physics
5. Mechanical Engineering
Pros: Core manufacturing, wide industry reach
Cons: Limited core jobs, physical work, slower career growth
6. Civil Engineering
Pros: Government job potential, essential for infrastructure
Cons: On-site work, underpaid private jobs
7. Mechatronics
Pros: Combines mechanical, electronics, robotics
Cons: Lack of dedicated companies hiring for this exact skill
8. AI & Machine Learning
