The education system of the country has evolved with the emergence of several public and private educational institutes, especially in the engineering sector. These institutions are functioning in the country and helping students to build a better career in the field of engineering. Among them, Narasaraopeta Engineering College (NEC) has turned out to be one of the best autonomous colleges located in the Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh.
NEC offers courses in all the popular branches of engineering such as mechanical, electrical, computer, etc., which have a good career scope in their respective industries. As the world is going hi-tech, the increasing demand for the computer science and engineering is justifiable but the other emerging engineering fields are also lucrative. Let’s discuss which engineering stream has a better career scope.
Mechanical Engineering:
It is the mother branch of the engineering sector. Mechanical Engineering is one of the chosen branches by the students across the country due to its everlasting scope and exposure. The job profiles of the Mechanical engineers can be classified into production, designing, analysis, R&D, testing, and maintenance. Sectors with the demand for Mechanical Engineers: Thermal power industry, Automobile industry, Oil and gas exploration and refining industries, Gas turbines industry, Aviation, Air conditioning and refrigeration industry, Aerospace industry, Agricultural sector, Armed forces, Shipping industries and many more.
Considering the blooming future of the Mechanical engineering, Narasaraopeta Engineering College has started their Mechanical department with 60 students. The department has well equipped state-of-the-art Laboratories namely Workshop, Production Technology Lab, Machine Tools lab, Fluid Mechanics & Hydraulic Machinery lab, Thermal Engineering lab, CAD/CAM lab, Heat Transfer lab, Instrumentation & Metrology lab, MOS Lab, and Materials Science & Metallurgy Lab.
Electrical Engineering:
Electrical engineering is one of the fastest growing and most interesting branches of engineering. The study of electrical engineering includes the knowledge and application of electricity and electronics. The demand for the electrical engineers is going up with the rising need for electricity and its equipment. Following are the job profiles for electrical engineers: Test Engineers; Quality Control Engineer; Design Engineer; Reliability Engineer; etc. Electrical, Electrical & Electronic and Electrical & Instrumentation Engineers are in high demand in the sectors such as all electricity boards, power sector organizations like NTPC, PSUs, railways, defense forces, manufacturing sector etc.
Narasaraopeta Engineering College, one of the AICTE approved engineering college in AP, is providing a 4-year B.Tech degree course in Electrical & Electronics Engineering and Electronics & Communication Engineering. To give a real-time experience to its students, the department organises industrial visits, seminars, guest lectures, workshops, etc. The college is focused to meet the expectation of the industry; it also has a center of excellence and research in Electrical Engineering.
Computer Science and Engineering:
This is the strongest sector of engineering as per job opportunities and commercial gains. All the industries have the requirement of software solution such as banking, airlines, insurance, railways, hospitals, hospitality or IT field. From automobile to aerospace, billions of devices are produced in every sector that is mostly software driven. It is not only development or coding of these services and devices but also testing and lifetime support, which needs CSE. In India, the major chunks of jobs are offered to CSE engineers.
NEC’s Department of the Computer Science & Engineering is crafted to give the best education in Information Technology and to prepare them for the growth-oriented IT industry.
Others:
Narasaraopeta Engineering College, one of the best autonomous engineering colleges in the district of Guntur, AP, also offers degrees in Chemical Engineering, MBA, and MCA. They organise campus placement drives for all the students and the college authority also encourages the students to innovate. They have launched an incubation center in the college called “Andhra Technology Business Incubator (ATBI) under Startup NEC” to encourage entrepreneurship.
