Which is the better career ? Engineer or IAS ? Explain the fees to study , starting Salary , highest salary , job security , benefits ?? Pls

Hello Nitish,

An Engineer and an IAS officer both are two distinct career choices. It completes depends on your skills, knowledge and interest that which will suit you or in which career you will perform better. The selection of IAS officer is made through UPSC examination. Lakhs of students appear in UPSC to test their destiny. Only few hundreds are selected for the IAS. While Engineering is a vast field, concerning its numerous specialisations and opportunities in both government and private sector. I would suggest you to keep engineering as a back up plan. You must be aware of various engineering specialisations such as civil engineering,  automobile engineering, aeronautical engineering, textile engineering, chemical engineering, information technology engineering, electronics engineering, electronics and communication engineering, electrical engineering, computer science engineering, biotechnology and numerous other specialisations.

Hello nitish,

Both the career options are equally great.

Being an IAS  officer is a very tough job. Lot of effort is required for UPSE preparation. It is said to be the toughest exam of india.
But it is an HONOUR for any indian to serve your country. IAS is a respectful and secure job.

If you are concerned about payscale, then obviously an engineer can make more money than an ias.
The sector also provides you opportunities to work in foreign. Good engineers get paid in crores.

However, decision should be on your interest.

Hope this helps.
Goodluck
