    There is not a simple answer to your question. It depends on what type of engineering you are studying. The best advice is to read some job advertisements for graduate engineering jobs. Note down what skills are requested. Some of these will be addressed by your engineering program. Other skills you can build on the side. These include communication and collaboration skills.

    Engineers spend 60% of their time communicating and <20% of their time doing technical stuff. Your engineering program will do a very good job of developing your technical skills but it’s the social skills of collaboration that will determine your ultimate success in the workplace. So, work hard at all those group projects. Figure out what it takes to get everyone engaged. One day, this will be a vital skill in your workplace.

    Honestly, employment is a need of any kind of education. 

    It’s a really very annoying thing that many graduate engineers are unemployed.

    Skill-based courses for a graduate engineer are listed below ;

    • Branch specific technical or skill-oriented course
    • PGDM
    • Various software courses
    • Maritime (Merchant Navy courses)
    • M.tech.
    • M.Sc or M.S.
    • MBA
    • Get into the armed forces
    • Animation, graphics VFX
    • Competitive exam preparation like UPSC, GATE and state-wise PSC.

    I hope you are satisfied with this answer.

    Thank you.
