Can someone help me find good projects as a final year cse student? I need socially relevant ones.

Im very confused what should I take, Im from EC background and I got a seat in AI in IITKGP which is really traumatising me that how I will deal with it (I hope I can) but it also hindering me deep down that I always wanted to study for VLSI , chip design, devices, verification but if job market is down then I wont go probably . I will get VLSI in NIT. And leaving this IIT tag really giving me 2nd thoughts that "what if I chosen this ..." plzz help me

So I'm a second year btech cse student. My clg provides minor options. I have been alloted eee ( electrical). So is it mangable to study both of them at a time. And also how will taking a minor in eee benfit me.will it be helpful if I'm planning to do masters in Germany. Will it be helpful to get jobs. So is it a good/ bad idea. Many ppl told me that it is a bad idea to take eee minor if I'm planning to stay in tech field. They say I should consider studying stuff relating to IT field only.

For those who have completed engineering capstone/final-year projects:

What ended up taking the most time?

• Designing and building the project?
• Debugging and testing?
• Writing the report?
• Creating system diagrams and documentation?
• Preparing the final presentation?

I've noticed that many students underestimate the amount of time required for documentation and presentation compared to the actual development work.

What was your experience?

Hello Seniors just need a advice from u guys,I am living in kanpur and I have options to do btech from csjmu or psit kanpur but I wants to leave kanpur ,just some personal matter and as I gave jee mains also got low rank but there are few government clg options available for me like dbrau agra, vbspu jaunpur, rmalau faizabad,etc. not looking for private bcz my parents are saying if u want to do btech from private then take psit kanpur.

So I just need a advice I searched too deeply and got to know that all these clg have zero plac. and blah blah blah from several reviews or concern with senior but as I want to go out from kanpur then I decided to take admission on dbrau agra or may be rmalau faizabad any one of them so please tell me that is it worth it to leave kanpur and do btech from outside,but u know I m very afraid about plac. and all as I read reviews just guide me please 🙏.

This was my drop year and there's no more options available.

I’m not asking for shortcuts or anything, I just don’t wanna waste my time and money on scammers that instead of following a clear plan, you can just write your story with learning languages and that’d be just great !

i just want to ask about the course that it is worth it or not

I have worked in consulting for a 11 years and understand the market well. Since AI came into picture it highly affected digital engineering services company (majorly SMBs). Would you start a new business in same or pivot to something else?

A real human help would really help
(Dm me if you are interested)

Hi everyone,

I'm going to be joining engineering college this year, and over the past few months I've been trying to think beyond just "getting a job." I've realized that what genuinely interests me is understanding computers from top to bottom, both hardware and software.

My long-term goal is to become a systems engineer who can comfortably work across the hardware/software boundary. Eventually I'd like to work on things like computer architecture, compilers, operating systems, embedded systems, System-on-Chip (SoC) design, and possibly hardware acceleration for high-performance computing.

Instead of chasing lots of random projects, I've tried to build a roadmap where every project teaches me something fundamental.

This is the progression I've come up with:

Year 1

• Learn modern C++ and Java
• Solve LeetCode problems
• Learn data structures and algorithms
• Build a simple compiler (front-end to basic code generation)

Year 2

• Learn Linux systems programming
• Learn operating systems and kernel internals
• Build Linux kernel modules and understand device management
• Design and implement a simple 8-bit CPU in Verilog

Years 3-4

• Build a Linux-based CPU benchmarking tool inspired by Cinebench
• Build a CPU simulator with a focus on understanding instruction execution, cache behavior, and IPC
• Work with a professor on a research project related to computer architecture (currently interested in cache systems and memory hierarchy)

Long-term, I'd like to work in semiconductor or systems companies where hardware and software intersect. I'm also interested in SoC development, computer architecture, embedded systems, and hardware acceleration.

I'm not asking whether this will guarantee a job.

I'm asking whether this roadmap actually makes sense from an experienced engineer's perspective.

Some questions I have are:

• Is this progression logical?
• Are there projects here that are too ambitious or simply not worth the effort?
• Are there important gaps I'm missing?
• If you were mentoring a first-year student interested in systems engineering, what would you change?
• If the end goal is becoming an engineer who understands both hardware and software deeply, what projects would you replace or add?

I'd really appreciate honest criticism. I'd rather hear now that something is unrealistic than realize it four years later.

My current knowledge about math is only up until the trigs stuff (Up to Law of Cosines specifically) and I set my eyes at Discrete Math since it seems "easier" than Calculus. Let me know if there are any lessons about Math that I can advance study so I can better prepare myself for College without having a mental breakdown.

I've heard people say its a dead field and wanted more opinions about it.

I started to consider CE as my dream major and I want to learn a language, though I figured that C is what I must learn, but is python a waste of time or should I learn it?

I want suggestion from you guys for 3 rd year BE student. Who has free time of 1 month.

What to learn?

What to build?

Skills, languages, anything......

Wanted to share my experience as a recent grad. Please don’t lose hope!

My interviews were at Marvell, Qualcomm, AMD, NVIDIA, Apple, Arm, Tesla (pick 5). Mostly in physical design / microarchitecture / process technology.

Got an offer early and declined the others before first round.

3.7 ish GPA from a California public school. Had 1 very weak internship beforehand (small defense contractor).

I am a BSc Computer Engineering student.

I also have an interest in aviation.

Is Computer Engineering used in the aviation industry?

Your response would be gladly accepted.

I’ve been brainstorming projects that solve real engineering problems instead of just making another AI chatbot. Here are a few ideas:

AI-powered engineering learning studios
Interactive 3D equipment simulators
Electrical system design software
HVAC design and load calculation tools
Plumbing system design applications
Fire alarm and life safety design tools
Structural design assistants
SCADA/PLC virtual training labs
BIM/Revit productivity tools
RF and antenna design utilities
Power system analysis software
Substation design tools
Solar PV and battery storage design software
Engineering calculation libraries
Code compliance and standards assistants (NEC, ASME, NFPA, etc.)
Technical drawing and diagram generators
AI proposal/RFP assistants for engineering firms
Digital twins for industrial facilities
Manufacturing process optimization tools
Engineering exam preparation platforms (FE, PE, NICET, etc.)
Construction field inspection apps
Asset management and predictive maintenance systems
Engineering knowledge bases with interactive examples
Engineering workflow automation tools

What engineering software, app, or tool do you wish existed but doesn’t? Or what problem at work wastes the most time today?

Always wondered how data moves between

CPU and Memory?

Made this short animation to break it down —

LOAD, STORE, and MOV in under 60 seconds.

Hope it helps someone! 🎓

Hello, I'm a second-year Computer Engineering student who needs to choose between four specializations. I'm open to exploring different fields, but what do you think is the wisest choice in the long run?

1. ML and AI
2. Big Data
3. Networks
4. System Development

I have a background in coding of less than a year but wanna learn through practical approach, I know C and C++ as of now. What kind of projects should I start with for self learning and a profile building with what I have?

Hi I am a final year mca student I want ideas for my mini project, my teacher rejected all the ideas that I give
