·      Study of hardware and networking.

·      Application of computing in engineering.

What will you study in computer science engineering and Information technology engineering?

·      OPERATING SYSTEM:

An operating system is software programming that manages computer hardware and software resources and provides common services for computer programs.

         It is an essential component of the system software in a computer system.

·      DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM:

A DBMS is a collection of programs that enables you to store, modify and extract information from a database. Like, library management system, ATM.

·      COMPUTER NETWORK:

It covers facilitate communication via Email, video conferencing, instant messaging, enables multiple users to share a single hardware device like printer or scanner.

           It also covers all networks.

·      WEB TECHNOLOGY AND PROGRAMMING:

It deals with all programming languages like, programming in C++, Core Java, PHP, HTML, JavaScript, perl, Advanced Java, VB.net, ASP.NET.

·      MOBILE COMPUTING:

It deals with the topic for wireless communication, working of GSM, working of GPRS, Bluetooth, satellite communication, security, seamless connection.

Why computer science engineering and Information technology engineering

·      Due to Rapid growth of computer, laptop, Smart phones and innovative Technologies.

·      Computer and Information Technology Engineering have become one of the fastest growing segment and sector of world's economy.

·      Computer engineering and Information Technology Sector becomes a parameter of innovative technology.

·      Though numbers of innovations have taken place in computer engineering and Information Technology Sector, the process of innovation and research is continuous and makes the computer engineering and information technology all favourite.

·      It is the heart of all Industries where technology is required.

·      Technology involvement is still in its initial phase in India and many countries; it will grow more in next upcoming years.

Does computer science engineering and Information technology engineering have any scope after four years?

·      Yes, it has a scope of employment, entrepreneurship and further study.

·      It is a core branch of innovative technology, so future growth is very excellent.

·      Government is focusing on entrepreneurship and more number of companies is coming up in Technology Sector.

·      Irrespective of core computer engineering and information technology company, all the industries( it may be Infosys, Wipro, TCS, Tech Mahindra) requires computer and information technology engineers.

·      Strong job opportunities are available in the sector like design and development, testing, animation, networking, web development mobile app development, iPhone application development, marketing hardware development etc.

·      Girls can also work in all fields of computer and Information Technology Engineering.

·      Giant companies hiring computer and information technology engineers are TCS, Infosys Wipro, Tech Mahindra, Apple, Dell, IBM, IGATE, Inte, Adobe, HP, HCL, BSNL, SIS, Xerox, etc.

THREATS :

In addition to the above strengths and scope for computer engineering and information technology, few Threats are also there which one should consider while selecting computer engineering and information technology as a study option.

Number of seats for computer engineering are about 6090 that provides better opportunities in prominent it Industries like Infosys, Accenture, Cognizant, etc.

Number of seats for information technology is about 3555, which shows less competition and higher demand in multinational companies.

For better growth students should be ready to work at remote places and relocation process.

What is the difference between computer science engineering, computer engineering and Information technology engineering?

·      CE is more focused towards computer system troubleshooting, hardware and software engineering comma Microprocessor and Microcontroller whereas Information Technology describes the study of artificial intelligence, management information system (MIS), decision support system (DSS) and information behaviour science, organising structures, operating results and computer oriented numerical methods.

·      CE and CSE are two name of same branch. They have 42 common subjects from 47 total subjects. CSE is more specific on application development.

·      CSE and IT have difference of 11 subjects from 47. Some subjects of CSE like design and analysis of algorithms, compiler design and theory of computation etc are not covered in IT.

·      From industry point of view CE, CSE and IT are same.
