Which engineering branch is better among EEE and ECE?

Every branch has its own merits and demerits. However, I can list out the advantages and disadvantages in EEE which you can use to decide your future goals. Firstly, EEE has a higher number of seats in the PSU as compared to ECE. Secondly, there are more post in EEE for engineering services than in ECE. Again, if you are considering higher studies (M.Tech) then EEE has some of the best departments like power and control, power electronics etc. These subjects will offer you a wide range of research areas. There are some departments where both EEE and ECE students can take part, like control and automation. However, the seats for EEE graduates are more in such departments. Now coming to advantages of ECE over EEE From ECE point of view, VLSI is a very good option to pursue your higher studies which EEE students can't join. ECE syllabus is comparatively less for any competitive exams. In EEE, you will find subjects like power system, electric machines and power electronics which will together be equivalent to the total syllabus of ECE. Also from campus placement point of view, and from my experience, ECE holds the advantage by a little margin. Think carefully what you want after having your degree and then join a program as per your goals. For further details, you can also refer the article below:

EC will lead you to IT software companies. Even EE is also the best.

ECE is mainly based on physics (electronics and magnetics) and mathematical applications including some software concepts too. While EEE is also almost the same but with less mathematical application and includes some hardware concepts. For further details, check out the article below:
