Hello. I'm an ECE student. I have 2 international publications and 2 projects, both on Embedded Systems. But I want to specialize in Digital VLSI.I have nothing on it. And not even in University mark sheet as its in my 7th sem, and I'll be applying just after the sixth sem. Will I be accepted in good schools if I apply for it, or should I stick to Embedded Systems only. And. Does VLSI bring more job opportunities than Embedded systems? Thank you.
