B.Tech Scope

Hi Serena, First of all, let's see what these branches are all about. Biomedical engineers typically do the following:
Design biomedical equipment and devices, such as artificial internal organs, replacements for body parts, and machines for diagnosing medical problems. Plastics engineering encompasses the processing, design, development, and manufacture of plastics products. A plastic is a polymeric material that is in a semi-liquid state, having the property of plasticity and exhibiting flow. Plastics engineering encompasses plastics material and plastic machinery. Although they somewhat relate to chemistry or chemical engineering, they are completely different. You should study the domain of both of these streams separately and then decide as per your interests!
All the best.

These are the major entrance exams in India for Msc or integrated Ph.D. (or direct Ph.D. in some cases) in India.
JAM
Opportunities abroad (Physics GRE, General GRE, IELTS and TOFEL etc)
TIFR GS(Integrated Ph.D. paper)
University entrance tests.
MS by research programs
JEST
TIFR Hyderabad
GATE
CSIR NET
The three exams JEST, GATE, and NET have syllabus of Msc+Bsc. All other mentioned above are conducted on Bsc level syllabus and are easier for us Engineers with less physics background to crack.
JAM exam: This is conducted by IITs as an entrance test to Msc and integrated Ph.D. in IITs and IISC. Also, some IISERs take jam rankers to integrated Ph.D. This is the best of all options for slow learners. For those who can't spend a year preparing for entrance tests, this will be a boon.Even if you prepare perfectly only up to 12th class level physics, you can get a rank under 500 easily. So, even if you are preparing for JEST, I strongly recommend keeping this as a backup option at least.
Caution: IITs and IISERs ask for 2 years of physics related subjects in bachelors as compulsory for JAM rankers. I heard that mechanical guys may not meet these criteria.To confirm if you will meet the eligibility criteria, mail those institutes and inquire. I think IIT Kanpur and Bombay give an exception.
TIFR GSexam: TIFR is one of the elite research institutes in India if not the best. Even better than IISC as far as physics is concerned. If you opt for integrated Ph.D. paper, Your questions will be from Bsc syllabus but the no.of questions will be less and look for your deep understanding of a concept. Very few people get selected this way. The interviews will also be very thought-provoking. You need to be very strong with your fundamentals. All TIFR institutes will take students through this.
Opportunities Abroad (Physics GRE, General GRE, IELTS and TOFEL etc):I personally feel if you can fund yourself, then this is the best option.Because switching career is very easy thing abroad and the opportunities you have there are numerous and the research happening even in the mediocre colleges there is comparable to good colleges here. General GRE with a combination of TOFEL or IELTS is necessary for the USA and Physics GRE is recommended. As for the European countries, only IELTS is enough (Sending GRE scores might add to your profile but is not mandatory). The tuition fee is zero in some countries like Italy and Germany.

Hi there, I am a third year B.Tech CSE student at NIIT University. Students from NIIT University get placed at the top-notch companies of the country. Last year the placement record was 100%. For placements we had companies like Amazon, IBM, CTS, ZENSAR, PWC, Big Basket, Tech Mahindra etc. With the highest domestic package of 11 Lacs last year and the highest international package was 47.95 Lacs. NU also sends its students for industry practise programme in the last semester where we get to deal with the real-world problems. For industry practice this year we had companies like AMAZON, PWC, IBM, PAYU, ZENSAR, WIPRO, TCS, CADENCE, SAPIENT, COKE etc.

If you are interested to study more in this field, then you can go for higher studies. You have the option to purse M.Tech after B.Tech. Master of Technology (M.Tech) is the advancement in this field through which you are particularly specialised in one area. Some candidates also choose MBA after B.Tech. One can also opt teaching field and become professor after M.Tech. Candidates can also pursue higher studies along with job. They can pursue courses in distance mode as many Universities in India offers distance education. It will not adds value to your academic qualification but also helps you to secure good position in an organisation. After M.Tech, one can also enter in research field by pursuing Doctor of Philosophy Ph.D. in related discipline. If you have the capability to open your company then you can go for it and became an entrepreneur. Nowadays, many talented graduates in engineering are working on their own startup. If talking about job then, career scope is really good in this field. Depending upon your skills and knowledge, you will get the job. In India, there are many private companies that recruits a large number of engineers every year. Jobs availability is not only in private sectors but public sector organizations also recruits engineers. Top Recruiters:
Accenture
TCS
Infosys
Cognizant
BHEL
SAIL
Tata Motors
DRDO
Bajaj
ONGC
GAIL
HPCL
CPCL
Salary
In this field, salary completely depends upon experience. Once you gain experience, salary is beyond expectation. Starting salary of an engineering graduate will be Rs 20,000 to 30,000 per month. After earning experience, you may get the handsome salary in this field. Remuneration of an experienced graduates will be 5 lacs to 10+ lacs per annum depending upon organisation you are working for. Engineers are also demanded abroad countries with attractive salary package.
