Abstract
In this study, engineering students from universities all around India will have their reading interests and habits examined. Reading habits have changed as a result of technology; the most popular change is the rise of text reading from computer screens. Teachers and students face a variety of difficulties and opportunities as a result of the widespread use of screen reading. The usage of annotations and other forms of text interaction by engineering students when reading academic publications is examined in this work along with their general reading preferences, habits, and attitudes. The opinions of 109 students who participated in an online survey were examined. The report highlights a number of issues with engineering students' preferences and habits, and how those issues affect their capacity for critical thought. The researcher presented recommendations to encourage reading habits among engineering students in the continually technologically driven environment of today after conducting research to acquire a thorough overview of millennials' reading preferences.
