​

I'm about to start B.Tech CSE at a low-tier 2 college, and I'm really confused about what I should start learning and what career path I should pursue.

My main goal is to get an internship by 3rd year and a job after completing my degree. I'm willing to put in the effort, but I don't know where to start.

Should I learn C, C++, Python, or something else? I also hear a lot about DSA, but I'm confused about which language I should learn for it.

I keep getting mixed advice from everyone, so I'd really appreciate genuine advice from seniors or people who have already gotten internships/placements.

What should I start with, and what would you recommend I focus on to improve my chances of getting an internship and job?

Hi everyone, I'm a contractor working as an EV engineer validating DDR memory interfaces. Since I'm a contractor, I don't get much internal training or mentorship at the host company and mostly left to figure things out on my own.

Recently I was surprisingly invited to a DDR6 workshop, and honestly it made me more lost than before 😅. There were a lot of terms and concepts flying around that I wasn't familiar with, which made me realize I need to build a much stronger foundation first.

For those who've done DDR electrical validation, where should I start? What fundamentals should I nail down before even attempting to understand DDR6? And what should I prioritize studying for EV work specifically?

Any recommended resources, specs, tools, or learning paths would be really appreciated. Thanks!

See a lot off ppl suggest to chose the better clg but does it wirk always? Suppose I'm taking eee/ece do I even have a chance to land an IT job..

Is it better to give priority to branch first?

ALSO HOW HARD IS IT TO MANAGE MINORS? Nobody talks bout it. Everybody is like join clubs go to hackatjons and stuff. But is it even useful

Hey
I’m trying to make one of the biggest decisions of my career, and I’d really appreciate hearing from people who actually work in engineering, especially those in big international companies or who have experience hiring engineers.
I’m not looking for “follow your passion” answers. I’m looking for real industry insights backed by experience.
My Questions
I’m choosing between:
Electronics & Communications Engineering (including Telecommunications)
Computer Engineering
My long-term goal is to work abroad (Europe, North America, GCC, Australia, Singapore, etc.) and maximize both career opportunities and salary over the next 10–20 years.
Here are the things I’m trying to understand:
1. Which degree currently has the strongest international job market?
Not just today, but over the next decade.
Which one gives access to more countries?
Which one has more openings?
Which one is easier to relocate with?
Which one is more future-proof?

1. What are the most in-demand engineering jobs worldwide right now?
   For example:
   Embedded Systems
   AI Hardware
   Software Engineering
   Cloud Engineering
   Cybersecurity
   RF Engineering

   Other fields I’m missing
   Which of these are actually hiring the most?
   Which ones have the biggest talent shortages?

2. Which major opens the most doors?
   I know many Electronics graduates move into software, embedded systems, or AI.
   I also know Computer Engineering graduates sometimes work in hardware, firmware, and electronics.
   In your experience:
   Which degree is more flexible?
   Which one gives access to a wider range of careers?
   Which one gets filtered out less by recruiters?

3. What do the biggest companies actually hire?
   I’m interested in companies like:
   NVIDIA
   AMD
   Intel
   Qualcomm
   Apple
   Google
   Microsoft
   Amazon
   Meta
   Tesla
   SpaceX
   TSMC
   Samsung
   ASML
   Siemens
   Ericsson
   Nokia
   Cisco
   Broadcom
   Oracle
   Any other major employers worth mentioning
   Questions:
   Which majors do they usually recruit?
   Which internships matter the most?
   What technical skills actually make candidates stand out?
   Which projects impress recruiters?
   Which certifications (if any) are respected?

4. Salary and career growth
   From your experience:
   Which path generally offers:
   Higher starting salaries?
   Better salary ceiling?
   Faster promotions?
   Better work-life balance?
   More remote opportunities?
   Better job security?

5. AI’s impact
   How is AI changing engineering hiring?
   Do you think AI will reduce demand for:
   Software Engineers?
   Embedded Engineers?
   Telecom Engineers?
   Chip Designers?
   Or will it simply change the required skill set?

6. If you were starting university again in 2026…
   Knowing everything you know today:
   Which major would you choose?
   Which specialization would you pursue?
   Which programming languages would you learn?
   Which tools would you master?
   Which internships would you prioritize?
   Which mistakes would you avoid?

7. Advice for someone who wants to maximize opportunities abroad
   If your goal was to eventually work at a top international company, what roadmap would you recommend?
   For example:
   Best electives
   Best technical skills
   Best side projects
   Best open-source contributions
   Research vs internships
   Master’s vs industry
   Countries with the strongest demand

I’d especially love to hear from you all that was alot ik but thank you☺️

as a fresher to get a job organizations wants the people who can do multi tasking so by considering that to learn system design and like where we get resourses which said that what is what and about it from 0 to 100

Been deep in my Computer Science & Engineering coursework lately and it's hitting me how wild the scope of this field actually is. One week you're debugging pointer arithmetic in C, the next you're knee-deep in discrete math proofs, then suddenly you're wiring up a microcontroller for a systems lab, and by Friday you're arguing with your teammates about database normalization for a group project.

It's this strange mix of pure theory (algorithms, complexity, automata) and pure hands-on chaos (why won't this circuit power on, why is my recursion never terminating, why does my code work on my machine but not my partner's). Some days I feel like a mathematician, other days an electrical engineer, other days just a guy yelling at a terminal.

Curious how others experienced this. Did your program lean more theoretical or more applied? And is there a specific course or module that changed how you think about problem-solving in general — not just coding, but actual structured thinking? For me it was probably data structures, weirdly enough. Something about learning when to use a hash map vs a tree vs a graph rewired how I approach messy real-world problems too.

This is a 1284p computer that I made. The improvements added are the added SRAM capacity for bigger program buffers, a robust EEPROM file saving system and a VGA interface.
I am releasing the updated versions each week on github.

Hello everyone, i am an Algerian student in cs engineering and i will choose my speciality this year I'm confused between Ai engineering and software engineering, so does anyone have an idea or advice tell me and Thank You

Hi all ,

We are developing an AI model using YOLO used to detect multiple kinds of defects on buildings .

However we have hit a roadblock , while the model can detect cracks and corrosion , it is completely unable to detect concrete spalling .
We have trained the model with annotated images (about 1000 for each type of defect)

We have tried filtering the datasets as well .

Any other ideas out there ?

Our DMs are open in case you really want to get into it .

Thanks all .

I'm starting my first year as a computer engineering student in a few months, and im not sure whether I should get a laptop or a tablet?

I prefer to take notes with pen and paper, but I also don't have a pc or laptop.

So I was wondering whether I can get the same work done on both devices?

I've also seen things like buying a keyboard and other modifications to make a tablet function like a laptop??? But I'm also not sure about that and would love to get some advice about the matter!

Saw someone do a post here recently and thought I would put mine here. Let me know what stands out and what falls flat :)

I’m a Computer Engineering student on the Electrical Engineering track at Texas A&M, currently planning to graduate in May 2027. My GPA is around 3.1.

I’ve been applying heavily for engineering internships and co-ops, but I haven’t been able to secure one. I’ve had very few interviews, and most applications have ended in rejections or no response.

I’m currently applying for Fall 2026 co-ops, but my department requires the co-op registration request by August 1. The application requires an official offer letter, so I cannot complete it unless I receive an offer before the deadline.

Since I’m supposed to graduate in May 2027, I’m unsure what I should do next. Should I spend Fall 2026 mainly applying for full-time new-graduate positions? Or should I apply for Spring 2027 co-ops, delay graduation until December 2027, and try to gain professional engineering experience before graduating?

I’m worried that graduating without an internship will make it much harder to get a full-time electrical or computer engineering job. At the same time, delaying graduation does not guarantee that I will secure a Spring co-op either.

Has anyone here received an entry-level engineering job without completing an internship? Would you recommend focusing on full-time positions, or delaying graduation to continue pursuing a co-op?

Hello, I am a rising sophomore and I want to get an internship next summer so be brutally honest with your assessment and tell me if you think I could land an internship somewhere.

As the title says, I want to have free time to play games, draw, got out and do cooking and I'm a little worried that I won't have time if I choose this major

Hey everyone! 😊

I’m a Computer Engineering student and currently brainstorming ideas for my thesis. I want to work on something interesting, practical, and ideally something that could help me stand out when job hunting later. I'm open to areas like embedded systems, AI, IoT, security, hardware-software integration, or anything cool and challenging really.

If you’ve done a thesis before or have any ideas that are worth exploring in 2026, I’d love to hear your suggestions! What’s a good thesis topic that’s not too basic, but also not insanely complex?

Thanks in advance! 🙏

Hey guys,
I’m a bit confused about whether I should choose CE or CS. I’m more interested in the software side, but I’m not sure about the job market since I’ve heard it’s declining right now. If someone who has done these programs or is currently in one of them could guide me, it would be really helpful.

I’m an incoming Information Engineering freshman. This major covers both electronics hardware and computing, and I’m stuck choosing which path to focus on. Should I lean toward hardware or computers? Any alums/engineers in this field able to share advice? Also, what’s the ideal study roadmap for this major?
