Can you tell me the difference between IT engineering and Computer science engineering?

The major difference between both these field is that IT deals with the application of computing technology to real life processes, while, Computer Science deals with the science that facilitates these applications. To make it short and simple, Computer Science is the creation of software and hardware by using different programming skills. On the other hand, IT is just the selection of the proper software or hardware for the task.

In short, both degrees are highly profitable and unquestionably relevant.



The most important thing to consider it your personality. If you care about technology and problem solving for its own sake, Computer Science may be the best fit. But if youre more concerned about how people use technology, think about IT.

Hello,







Computer science engineers are involved in many aspects of computing, from the design of individual microprocessors, personal computers and supercomputers to circuit designing and writing software that powers them.Professionals can join as junior programmer, database administrator, junior network manager, Data Analyst, Software Developer, Software Engineer, and Client-Server Systems Manager etc in the initial stage. Students have job opportunities at organizations like IBM, Intel, HP, TCS, INFOSYS, WIPRO, TECHMAHINDRA,CTS and Dell , and can even work abroad.



Information Technology deals with the use of electronic computers and computer software to store, protect process, transmit and securely retrieve data. IT professionals perform a variety of tasks that range from installing applications to designing complex computer networks and information database.

IT professionals are required in almost all range of employment fields such as finance, arts, medicine, defense, and other areas. Many opportunities are available in various IT firms all over India. Some of the leading IT Companies are Infosys, TCS, Wipro, Accenture, HCL Infotech, IBM etc.



I hope this helps.

Hello Aspirant,



The basic difference between these two is computer engineering focuses on hardware development, computer science focuses on software development, and IT focuses on running production systems that somebody else has built.Computer science and computer engineering are more technical degrees and are usually seen as higher value.



Hope it helps

All the best!

Hello Student,

Hope it helps you

Thank you

IT is the subbranch of CSE

IT is based on the application only but cs will take an approach to solve it.IT focuses more on application

CS offers you an opportunity to learn variety of topics related to computers. IT offers you an opportunity to discovers innovative uses of those fundamental concepts

Hope it helps...
