We Hyderabad are sure a global city, from improved standard of living to better facilities and affordable lifestyle. Our city has always been marked as a “good-to live” city when compared to the other major cities in the country. Also the fact that it’s South India’s educational hub or even tops in the list of the places to have most engineering colleges it doesn’t come by as a big surprise that we are the leading city to send most number of STEM students to US.

But according to a latest survey conducted by a Gurgaon-based company Aspiring Minds, the engineering graduates coming out of Hyderabad are the “least favorable and least employable”. The employment evaluating company included surveying 36,000 students from IT-related streams who were tested in their programming skills, practices, and ability to run a program, which revealed some hard-hitting stats about our city’s engineers.





Overall, New Delhi has the highest percentage and Hyderabad is the last with a score of 4.27 out of 100 in programming ability and 4.76 out of 100 in programming practices. According to a report from “Brookings Institution” states that “Hyderabad, India, sent the largest number of STEM students- about 20,800- to the United States and was ranked fourth for the percentage of its students pursuing a STEM degree (80%) during the 2008-2012 periods.”

Well, the trump effect and stats like these are sure going to make parents look for an alternative career for their children apart from engineering and IT field jobs.
