For science student all the streams are always open. But medical and engineering are the most sought after career choices after class 12 in science stream but students should always consider other fields like commerce and arts if they are interested. The top priority for students should be their passion and career goal and remember for science stream students besides these two streams i.e. Medicine and Engineering, career options in every other stream is always open. Students should always explore different domains if they do not have any definite career goal in mind.
For a career in medical stream, students need to take Physics, Chemistry and Biology as their main subjects. Students who have interest in Biology can make a career in Medical line and for that, they can opt for courses like:
- MBBS or Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery,
- BDS (Bachelor of Dental surgery),
- BAMS or Bachelor of Ayurveda Medicine and Surgery,
- Physician,
- Optometrists,
- Dental Surgeon,
- Pharmacists,
- Nursing and lots of others
For a career in engineering domain, students should opt for Maths, Physics and Chemistry as their main subjects. Now in engineering, there are various streams and the streams further offer specialisation when students go for post graduation. The common specialisations for a career in engineering are:
- Mechanical Engineering
- Civil Engineering
- Aeronautical Engineering
- Bio- Medical Engineering
- Information Technology
- Marine Engineering
- Computer Science Engineering
- Electronics and telecommunication and many other.
