**-Engineering is the designing, testing and building of machines, structures and processes using maths and science. Studying it can lead to a rewarding career**.

-Engineering is a discipline dedicated to problem solving. Our built environment and infrastructure, the devices we use to communicate, the processes that manufacture our medicines, have all been designed, assembled or managed by an engineer.
 

-There are many reasons why people may want to become engineers. Some of the common ones are:

- Engineers can use their creativity every day to solve problems and innovate new solutions.

- Engineers have many opportunities to travel the world and work in different fields and industries¹.

- Engineers have high salaries and job outlooks, as they are in high demand and respected for their skills and knowledge.

- Engineers have a huge impact on the world, as they contribute to the development of society, the environment, and the well-being of people.

If you are interested in becoming an engineer, you should consider which branch of engineering suits your interests and goals, and pursue the proper education and training for it.

Engineering courses are programs that teach students how to apply scientific and mathematical principles to design, build, and operate various systems and devices. There are many different categories of engineering courses, depending on the field of specialization, the level of study, and the duration of the program. Some of the common categories of engineering courses are:

This category covers courses related to the design, development, and testing of electrical and electronic systems, such as circuits, power generation, control systems, communication systems, etc. Some examples of electrical engineering courses are B.Tech in Electrical Engineering, M.Tech in Electrical Engineering², Diploma in Electrical Engineering, etc.

- **Mechanical Engineering**:

 This category covers courses related to the design, analysis, and manufacture of mechanical systems and machines, such as engines, turbines, robots, vehicles, etc. Some examples of mechanical engineering courses are B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering , M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering.

According to the web search results, the average salary of engineers in India is ₹19,960 per month². This is based on 7.6k salaries reported by engineers in India as of November 2023. However, the salary may vary depending on the company, location, experience, and skills of the engineer. Some of the top companies for engineers in India are Qualcomm, Honeywell, Nokia, Accenture, and L&T Technology Services Ltd. Some of the highest paying cities for engineers in India are Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Noida, Pune, and Ahmedabad.

The engineering has relationship with other disciplines. Scientist study the world as it is; engineers create the world that has never been. Engineering is quite different from science. Scientists try to understand nature. Engineers try to make things that do not exist in nature. Engineers stress innovation and invention. Even it is used in medicine and biology.The study of the human body, albeit from different directions and for different purposes, is an important common link between medicine and some engineering disciplines. Medicine aims to sustain, repair, enhance and even replace functions of the human body, if necessary, through the use of technology. Even in the art and business and also in other fields like; In political science, the term engineering has been borrowed for the study of the subjects of social engineering and political engineering, which deal with forming political and social structures using engineering methodology coupled with political science principles. Marketing engineering and Financial engineering have similarly borrowed the term.
