Should you go for computer science if you aren’t interested in it? I am from India and am preparing for the JEE exam for admission to engineering colleges in India.
I am very much interested in physics, chemistry, biology, and maths. I am not interested much in computer science. But my family says you can only get a job with BTech in computer science but will not get from BSc in basic sciences. I have done C++ and Java as well before. I just don’t find them as interesting as basic sciences. How should I choose my career in engineering and need to get a job after BTech?
I am very much interested in behaviour of light, cells, electricity, and time.
They also say that from electrical engineering, you can’t get a good job after BTech.
Also, if I understand a concept clearly, I am very good at relating it to real-life examples.
The situation in India may vary from my experiences, and the situation in times of a pandemic may vary from my experiences. Therefore, it is unclear how definitive any answer to your questions can be. But these are my two cents:
You should not go for any major that you're not interested in.
A degree from any of the fundamental sciences sets you up for many interesting jobs. From my math class, every one who graduated and wanted to find a good job, did find a good job.
