All three branches CSE, Petroleum and Aeronautical Engineering are equally good. As per current trend CSE is the most preferred branch. However with increasing out cry against outsourcing charm of Software Industry in India is slowly fading. But still as of now, it is the most sought after branch of engineering. Aeronautical and Petroleum are niche branches with comparitive lesser career options . But both very interesting branches with lots of innovation & research potential.
