Engineering is a profession in which scientific knowledge and mathematics is used and experimented with to develop ways that benefit mankind, making it extremely important to society for several reasons. Engineers don’t sit back and watch. They make things happen .Using innovation, creativity and a wealth of knowledge, engineering graduates are impacting the world unlike any other. The World is changing, and engineers are the ones behind so much of this development. It also plays a vital role between society through both technical and market understanding.

With the growth of science and technology every aspect of human life is directly or indirectly linked with engineering. Hence job opportunities are more. Due to worldwide economic depression the scope of employment for engineers was reduced during the last two years in India . Now with the improvement of the American economy followed by a worldwide chain effect, the gates of employment have been opened wide .After knowing that what is engineering what is its importance the first and most common question come in any one mind is that where should we go whom should we ask how can i do engineering, what is its eligibility ,course duration, fees structure and last and most important question is that what is its scope in future.
