What Are The Most Selected Branches Of Engineering?

Engineering has been one of the most sought after professional degrees all around of the world. The discipline of applied sciences offers popular specializations that help students pursue careers in different fields such as IT, science, and the like. A few selected engineering branches that are here to stay are mentioned below. Please read further to know...

 




Mechanical Engineering

The branch of engineering uses physics, mathematics and other scientific concepts for designing, analyzing and creating high-quality mechanical systems. Most top universities in Dehradun offer both graduate and postgraduate engineering courses in the stream. The stream is age old, and its origins can be traced in the works of Archimedes.

Different sub-types of the stream are as follows:-

•    Kinematics
•    Robotics
•    Mechatronics
•    Thermodynamics
•    Structural analysis
•    Drafting
•    Manufacturing assembly parts

Electrical Engineering

The stream exclusively deals with creating electrical systems as well as allied products. The field emerged in the late 1800s when electricity was beginning to get commercialized.  The branch deals with transmitting electricity across large-sized systems.

Different sub-types of the branch are as follows:-

•    Power
•    Control
•    Electronics
•    Microelectronics
•    Instrumentation
•    Signal Processing (digital as well as analog)

Chemical Engineering

The discipline uses essential concepts of physics, mathematics and chemistry to build useful things out of normal chemicals. Chemical engineering plays a cardinal role in the processing of pharmaceuticals, detergent products, fuels, plastics, etc. Every leading engineering college in Dehradun consistently changes its chemical engineering syllabus to stay abreast with the latest trends in the field.

Various sub-fields of the stream are as follows:-

•    Biochemical
•    Environmental
•    Metallurgy
•    Food processing

All of the above-named streams are the traditional branches of technology. Nowadays, many other branches of technology are rising such as computer science, IT, genetics, to mention a few.
