Hello Bhusahan, 

The INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL ENGINEERING is a very interesting branch of engineering. People who have interest in INSTRUMENTs, how they are manufactured and what are the uses of those instruments, generally take admission into this. So if you really have interest in INSTRUMENTS then only you join because the placement for ICE is very limited and less because of which you will suffer in last if you don't study with interest.

I hope you will find my answer helpful. 

All the best. 

Hello..

Both the fields you have mentioned ie instrumentation and control engineering and electrical engineering are very good.

But electrical engineering is very vast and they tend to find job easily if done from a good University.

While the demand for instrumentation and control engineering is less but the scope is high.

You can find job in both the cases 

Hope this is helpful

Yes 

It's a decent branch 

Actually don't see the preparation.

If you are seeing the competition in gate it's less so it's advantageous.

Instrumentation engineering definitely has good scope in future don't worry

Hey,

there are ample of opportunities available after instrumentation engineering. Some of them are-

• Public/Private firms,

• R&D organizations,

• Steel plants,

• Cement manufacturing companies,

• Thermal power plants,

• Chemical companies and similar industries.

Hope this helps you.

Hey buddy,

I would suggest Bharati Vidyapeeth rather than Rajiv gandhi. Not in the terms of placement only because placements varies from year to year in every college. There is never any fixed average placement but in many other cases Bharati vidyapeeth is better for example :

Infrastructure : The building is round. The library is well-equipped with basic engineering reference requirements. The building is painted every year. The campus is Wi-Fi enabled. The canteen is so as that they renew the contract with new people every year. Labs are updated and satisfy the requirements. The classrooms are sufficient for a batch.

Faculty : All the faculty members are always helping. There are 14 teachers in department. All the teachers have Ph.D.

The food and accomodation and cultural and social life is also very satisfying.

Hope this helps

Hey Rohit

No, Instrumentation and Control engineering is not a core branch. Their are only three core branches- Civil, Mechanical and Electrical. Although it is not properly a non core branch because in some or the other way, it has evolved from Electrical and consists of basically robotics and control and software-hardware theory(rough basis). The branch has not been that successful yet in our country, but is on its way. We still need a lot of development required.

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask any other queries.

Hello Narayan.

Computer Science Engineering (CSE) has a variety of topics ike analysis of algorithms, programming languages, program design, software, and computer hardware. A computer science engineer do Design / Development / Testing/ Maintenance of software in IT industry. This field has huge scope in present as well as in future.

All the best !

Hello Tanya, please check out the following link for detailed info on COMEDK cutoff: https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/comedk-uget-cutoff

Also check out this spreadsheet to find out the detailed listing of Round 2 cutoff ranks in ComedK 2018: https://www.comedk.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/BE-CUT-OFF-RANKS-2018-end-of-round-2.pdf

with a general merit rank of 37000, you may get the following colleges  as per previous year's statistics:

• Dayanand Sagar College of engineering
• KLE technological university
• Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology
• Acharya Institute of Technology
• Siddeganga Institute of technology
• AMC engineering college (CSE), etc

Check out the list for better detailed analysis, but you can definitely get better branches than instrumentation Technology; you may also look out for Civil, Producion, mechanical branches as well.

Goof Luck.

There is an abundance of Scope in the Middle East and other Oil rich states for instrumentation engineering. There are many Oil & Gas, Chemical and petrochemical companies who hire Instrumentation Engineers and once you gain sufficient experience(5+ Years) you get paid very well.

You can get into Designing of Plants, Maintenance activities, Or even into Commissioning of New plants.

This stream is sub divided into two parts. 1. Automation and control 2. Design and Detail engineering.

Talking about the salary of Instrumentation Engineers, an average engineer from campus get minimum 30k per month to 50k per month. As experience increases salary also get hike. Highest salaries can go up to 30LPA in India and 60–70LPA in Gulf countries.
