Hi wazuans

My brother scored a straight A. We are trying to ensure he gets the best course to ensure he either gets a good job or employs himself (and creates job opportunities for others)

He is torn between the above three engineering courses

Which one do you recommend and why?

I personally did civil engineering,first and foremost because I was fascinated by how roads are built,who decides which column goes where,why arent dams carried away by the water they impound,and until today I am still fascinated.Civil engineering covers roads,water,structures,public health engineering.
Architecture is just that, architecture. It ranges from architectural design of buildings to landscaping to planning of towns,cities,etc.
Someone somewhere will chip in with telecommunications engineering.
My exposure in the civil engineering field post-graduation was a shocker. I expected employers to line up at graduation with employment letters, yet I took a year plus to be employed. What kept me true to the field is the passion I had before,otherwise I would have changed fields quite easily and went into business or something. Let him make up his mind on his own,knowing he will be alone in studying,exams and post-graduation job search.
My two cents

AI, machine learning and data science are very interesting fields that I believe intersects each other. That said, hapa Kenya itabidii ajipatie kazi(self employment). That requires someone that is persistent and not ready to reward himself on small gains.

I'm a telecoms professional for the past 10yrs+ but with a Civil Engineering degree.Civil Engineering helped build up critical thinking , detailed analysis and opens up your mind to a wide array of industries from telecoms ,water , structures,environment etc . However I was focused into getting into telecoms while studying my civil degree because of my passion for technology.I found it a dynamic, engaging and exciting career .
What I'm I saying . Let the young man follow passion , what he is good at by engaging with ppl who are already in these industries and see where his strengths lie . As for self- employment ,I have 4 friends who are contractors with no civil eng. background. They employ the civil engineers to do their work
Anthony Wahome,major telecoms vendor ,has an accounting background

Thanks all. Much appreciated. Will let you know what his heart finally settles on. I can see he will have some mentors from this republic.
