Automobile engineering is a super-specialisation under Mechanical engineering. In majority of engineering colleges Automobile engineering is offered by Mechanical engineering department. Very few engineering colleges have exclusive Automobile engineering department. Mechanical engineers are required by all type of industries. Mechanical engineers can also get job in Automobile engineering. Whereas, B.Tech Automobile engineers are employed in automobile and its ancillary industries only. Therefore, scope of Automobile engineers is lesser in comparison to Mechanical engineering. If you are sure about your interest, you may go ahead with B.Tech automobile engineering else you may opt for Mechanical engineering. It is suggested that you can do Automobile engineering specialisation at M.Tech level.
