Credibility in Decision Making of the Students in Choosing Engineering Domain

Abstract

It is obvious that decision making is instrumental in everyone’s life style irrespective of colour, caste, community, belief systems, education, and designation. Everyone in the earth necessarily has to take decisions at certain juncture of personal or professional life. Wrong decisions always invite hurdles and complications that would sometimes lead to highly critical results. This paper concentrates on the credibility in the decision making of the students in choosing engineering courses. In India, right from schools, students are oriented towards medicine and engineering. It is observed that the choice of becoming doctors is being reasonable since many of the medical students settle down as doctors. Whereas, the choice of engineering courses in India is debatable since most of the engineering students are jobless. Hence it is presumed that poor decision making of in selection of the courses is the root cause for this pathetic situation of the engineering graduates
