Both branches of engineering are different from each other. You can check below their respective scopes-

Scope of Electrical Engineering

Electrical engineering is rapidly growing not only within core areas such as wireless communications and mobile technologies, but also in other cross-functioning areas including nanotechnology and biomedical engineering.
The world is moving towards the renewable source of energy including hydel, solar and wind power, and multi-national corporations are looking for power generation experts.

Scope of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering
Graduates can work in the consumer electronics, aviation and avionics, manufacturing, electricity generation and distribution, communications, transportation, telecommunications industry as electronics engineers.
Engineers also work on cross functional engineering branch projects to utilise the facets of electronics and communication engineering.
They also work on improving the functionality and technology of communication devices and servers.
Setting up networks and equipment and maintaining the systems are also among their job profile.

Choosing any one should depend more on your area of interest and less on job prospect. That will provide you satisfaction in the long run.
