Career

Dear Poornima,
Both the engineering branches are good and it will be very difficult to tell which branch will have more scope. However, to give you an sight, I am helping you with the some details regarding Information Technology, and for Mechatronics, I would request Dr.Goutam Chatterjee to share his expertise.
*Information Technology:
Information Technology (IT) is an engineering division, which concentrates on the study of utilizing computers and telecommunications in order to control, gather, store and circulate information. Both software and hardware sectors are parts of Information Technology.
Some of its specialized fields are: -
Computer Science
Networking and Communication
Databases and Information Systems
Embedded systems
Software Engineering
IT and Society
Geographic Information Science (GIS)
Eligibility for both:
For admission in a bachelor's degree, the candidate must have passed the higher secondary school certificate (10+2) examination with science subject such as physics, maths and chemistry. For IITs, It is mandatory to qualify in the Joint Entrance Examinations (J.E.E). The duration for this course is 4 years.
Hope this helps
Thanks
All The Best!

The main task of HR managers is the efficient use and development of available skills and talent of the employees within the organization. Thus, they are highly in demand in both public and private sector organizations. As such, they can seek employment in public and private sector industries, banking and financial institutions, corporate houses, and multinational companies. Personnel managers can aspire to be employed in the services sector, particularly IT companies who are dealing with a number of employees nowadays. While large firms have their permanent personnel managers, small companies, on the other hand, hire services of human resources consultants. Yet another great option to look out for!

Collecting degree is not enough u must have practically sound also. First of all i would like to suggest u that whatever u r doing do it thoroughly. Clear ur fundamental concepts. It should not be like that making second floor without any foundations. Industry requires Technically sound professionals not the theoretical persons. Instead of collecting degree take any International Certifications with u in less amount of time which helps u more. Lots of career lines are there in IT industry as well. System Admin, Network Admin, Security Admin, Database Admin, Software Developer, Web Developer and many more. Most of the Servers are running on Linux Servers. If u choose Linux platform as ur career option will be the futuristic approach. RHCE, RHCSS, RHCEV, JBOSS, LAMP, WAMP, XAMP CCNA, MCSE, JCP, OCP are some of the Leading Specialization areas where u can get some International kind of quality Certification. Don't u think that after getting Technically qualified Certification u will get high salaried technical JOB?
