feeling tense or have some stress some times is good, it increases your awareness

I want to earn 5 lacs in 2 years can be a SMART goal
Starting depends on your results, how you attend the intsrview, on the company

Currently, the largest salaries are in petroleum engineering. That has been consistent over the last few decades.
That being said, if you stay an engineer, you will not get rich. You will be comfortable, but not rich. You can use your engineering position as a gateway into the business or management side of a company, if you have the talent and the drive to do those tasks. That will allow you to advance your salary over what an engineer makes.
There are notable exceptions to this general statement. If you develop some breakout software/technology or get in the initial phases of a start-up company that becomes successful, you can make some big money. But those opportunities are rare, many start-ups fail.
The rich engineers are engineers that have their own businesses or have patented something useful. For a patent Computer Engineer, Mechanical Engineer, or Electrical Engineer would be a good route. For a business owner any type of engineer can work. The hard part about being rich is that there aren't that many well off engineers these days compared to the decently paid engineers. I would suggest not going into engineering with the mindset of becoming rich. Your chances to succeed will go up quite a bit.
Engineers don't usually get rich. The world does not need any more ideas, designs, or inventions. The world needs somebody to sell the ideas, designs, and inventions that dime-a-dozen engineers are already churning out.
I am going to tell you a proven method for getting rich, and you can have this information free for nothing. I'm pretty sure you can't do it. Your youth will stop you. I'll explain that at the end of my essay.
First you need a job, but not just any job. It has to be in a field that has been stable for a very long time, such as gardening, janitor, laundry, like that. Something basic. If you want to start your own business, that's ok. You really want a job that you can walk to, or your customers come to you, so that cuts out most of the construction jobs and big company stuff. That way you don't have to spend a lot of money keeping your wheels running, because you don't need to own wheels. You rent a cheap pad or stay in your mother's basement or something. Since you live so cheaply, you are able to save most of your income. You spend your evenings at the local library studying economics and investments. As you learn more from your studies you can move into investments, always choosing the highest quality and safest offerings.
That's it. That is the entire method. Does it work? Assume you are making $10 an hour, $20,000 a year. If you save half your income for fifty years, you will have half a million dollars in savings, not counting interest, dividends, or paper profits. A half million bux of principle. That sounds close enough to being rich for me. Other people have done it, but it's so unusual that they get their names in the news when they retire. There was a story in 2001 about a lady in Alabama who retired, gave $160,000 to a college for a scholarship fund, bought a house, and settled down to enjoy her remaining days in comfort. She started at age 15, washing and ironing sheets by hand. That's all she did for fifty years. I heard of a fellow who immigrated to the USA in the late twenties. He never held any job other than soda jerk in a drug store. (A soda jerk made milk shakes and ice cream treats.) He never owned a car, never married, and he lived the whole time in a flat above the drug store where he worked. He spent most of his off time at the library and only bought the highest quality stocks, one share at a time at the start. When he died in the fifties he left an estate valued at $200,000 which would be about four million in today's dollars. One of the better known examples was a fellow named Andrew Carnegie. He worked five years, saving his wages for an investment. Then he put it all into a steel business. Maybe you've heard the name. His hobby was building libraries and concert halls.
You might be starting to understand why I said you probably can't do this. The loudest message a young person gets from this is, "NO FUN!" A young person wants to boogie, and that's expensive. That is the biggest reason so few people ever get rich by their own efforts.
It's your decision. Good luck.
BTW if you go to college the most important thing you will get out of it is your address book: professional contacts in your field. The most important skill you will learn is vocalizing: chair a meeting, present an idea, sell something. No college will ever teach you any of this. That tells you what a college education is worth.
I am currently a Marine Engineer, that field is not the best paid. Chemical (or process) engineers earn the most. That said think about the future, what trends are growing? Biotech engineering is growing quickly!
Don't forget the world will always need energy have a grounding in that during any engineering you do.
The richest engineer is the engineer who goes into consultancy later in his career. Just pick the engineering you're most interested in and least likely to drop out of at uni.
THEME OF STUDY ( NOT ONLY FOR MONEY )
Dear,
Thank you, am also fine like you then dear please am one 22years experienced power electronics engineer from that my suggestion to you is all engineering fields are good in all countries not only in india means the feeling of good depends on almost busy in job with more interest because what you got job is fully related to your studied engineering. what i want to inform to you is please take the branch of engineering for study to be any thing but very good back ground support by some body for best future
Every body wants to be rich and prosperous, and that do not come about by simple choice.
To be at the right path, you have to take the right direction in view of your interest. If your sole interest is to fill your pocket, then you would neither be good at your profession nor be rich .
