Architecture and engineering students traditionally aim for design firms or construction sites, but new career paths are emerging. India's data centre capacity is expected to grow from 1.6 GW in 2026 to 6 GW by 2029, requiring $110 billion investment, mainly in MEP infrastructure. Mumbai holds over half of these centres. Roles include MEP engineer, cooling design engineer, and project manager. Sustainability careers are also growing, with over 20,000 IGBC-registered green projects needing energy modeling and compliance experts.
