Mechanical engineering is a core branch or what some people call an evergreen branch. While the placement of CS and ECE are better in most of the premier institutes, if you are interested in physics, mechanics, thermodynamics or such subjects a mechanical engineering degree can open up many research as well as well rewarding career choices. Of course a good institute helps a lot. All the best
