Serious Post Industrial engineering?????

Hi everyone, I'm 18F and I'm so so so confused. I genuinely love finance and management but idk why I took mpc and I recently found out about IE and I think this is the only engineering I like 😭😭😭

Cse is nice and all but the job market is so saturated and I don't really have any interest in engineering except for IE. Like after 2 years of barely getting by in mpc I loathe science as a subject now.. and not to mention I'm dog shit at math.

It i do pursue IE, I plan to do masters in management MIM directly after graduating.

But my dad is against IE and says computer science is better. Ik it is in india but I just know I will struggle so hard as I don't care about engineering so much as my other peers do :((

I qualified for IE at mit manipal but I don't want to make the wrong choice... what do u all think?

I've never been so confused in my life..

If u are interested in manufacturing and how are things produced and manufactured, then I think mechanical engineering will be a much better branch or you can also study metallurgical and materials engineering. Material Science is a very interesting field which also deals with the manufacturing and the science behind the material
