TOP 5 TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITIES IN INDIA
WHAT IS A TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY?
Technological university can be referred to those universities which specialize in Engineering, technology, applied science and natural sciences.
SCOPE OF THIS COURSE
The demand for such field is vast which can be proven from the fact that last year itself 13 lakh students appeared in the JEE examination. Students can now build their career in various engineering spectrums with exuberant salary packages some of which include:
- Software Engineering:this is one of the lucrative stream offering the highest salary packages among others with a well opportunity in overseas job. The salary might start from rs. 4.5-6 lakh and can extend to rs. 20-30 lakh per annum as per experience.
- Electronics and communication engineering: this branch is a ‘bless in disguise’ for those with an impeccable interest in calculus and physics. Having a B.Tech degree might add to acquiring a salary of rs. 4-6 lakh per year but additional skills such as implementation, architectural and design level skills could increase the earnings up to rs.10 lakh a year.
- Mechanical engineering: one of the oldest yet demanding branch, mechanical engineering offers a salary around rs. 1.3 lakh to rs.3.15 lakh per annum.
- Civil or environment engineering: structuring of buildings, roads, dams etc. is what this branch is all about. They offer a pay of rs. 20000-30000 per month but an experience of 15-20 years can earn a person rs.75000-100000 per month.
Apart from these, employment is also provided in the field of chemical, Biotechnology, genetic, aeronautical, electrical and electronics engineering. Post completion of graduation candidates have the option of go for M.tech or an MBA. Distance MBA is another alternative for students willing to pursue management education while working.
