[83% Engineers Unemployed](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/education/news/73-of-recruiters-now-prioritise-talent-over-premier-college-tags-says-report/articleshow/119260075.cms)
If you don't graduate from a good college, unemployment is likely. There's already a 5‑times oversupply of engineers, and AI is making it tougher.
The same goes for BAs – the most popular degree in India, yet it doesn't equip you with technical skills.
BA, BSc Zoology, Botany.
Dentistry – probably the worst, even without AI.
BTech, easily.
Probably Computer Science.
The long‑term impact is still unclear, but big players like OpenAI and Anthropic are focusing heavily on enterprise SDLC.
If they capture even 50 % of the market, companies might need only about 20 % or less of the current workforce.
Meanwhile, most other engineering streams were already facing challenges. Choose a branch you're truly passionate about, or develop that passion.
