Career scope of plastic engineering is really very low. Plastic industries are automated nowadays and don't require skilled workers. The companies tend to hire cheaper employees like laborers and ITI passed students and not specifically from plastic.

Scope of plastic mould technology is almost nil. Do it from CIPET otherwise it will be a waste to do so. Also, it is not equal to any other Diploma course. If you are thinking that it is equivalent to mechanical engineering and you will be eligible for government jobs, then you are misled. It is a separate course on its own and does not have government job openings as of now.

The scope is not very broad. It is not bigger than chemical engineering or petroleum engineering. It is just a new branch of engineering that still needs some more time to develop in India. It will take some more years to create a reasonable demand for plastic engineers.

No, not very much atleast. Plastic Manufacture is almost automated in large enterprises and smaller industries don't hire very much. If you do this course from a good college then you may have a possibility. But please don't pursue it thinking that it will be better than other streams. It is not better than CS ME or EE. So, think carefully, if you can get into a good college like CIPET then pursuing plastic engineering is worthy, otherwise not.

Hi Serena, First of all, let's see what these branches are all about. Biomedical engineers typically do the following:
Design biomedical equipment and devices, such as artificial internal organs, replacements for body parts, and machines for diagnosing medical problems. Plastics engineering encompasses the processing, design, development, and manufacture of plastics products. A plastic is a polymeric material that is in a semi-liquid state, having the property of plasticity and exhibiting flow. Plastics engineering encompasses plastics material and plastic machinery. Although they somewhat relate to chemistry or chemical engineering, t

Food technology has a higher scope than plastic. With food tech, you can apply for both government and private jobs with a good pay scale, but with plastic, you can apply for private jobs with low pay scale at around 1.8 lacs per annum.

You need to enlist the companies and send them your well-made resume. Also, express desire for interactions and visit the possible employers. As a fresher, it might look difficult but it is quite possible to get a job based on your skills and practical exposure to engineering.
