Hi dear,

Hope you are doing well!

Now let's go through your question.

As you will be knowing that IT industry is one of the fast growing fields in India. Fortunately or Fortunately people from other departments are also attracted to IT. Perhaps because of prospects of high salary and the exquisite offer provided.

Even the startup scenario also recruits talented IT professionals. So, those who are looking for a creative and challenging work environment may land a job in the startup sector. You may also use IT skills and start their own venture or even a consultancy firm also.

IT companies are even recruiting Graduates from other Engineering branches and training them to take on jobs in IT Industry. This has led to general reduction in salary of Freshers. Still, if you manage to pursue IT Engineering from a reputed Institute, you’ll be able to land a well paying job right from the start.

The main difference:

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.

Yes, IT students are eligible for CSE jobs but in some domains only. (Depends upon job scenario)

Thank You & All the best!
