In accordance with Anna University CEG/MIT, what is the difference between CSE & IT sylabbus

Hey. There is no major difference between CSE and IT as such. Just that CSE is considered a higher level branch and IT is more concerened with the hardware. Though the course of both CSE and IT remains same till the third year. Just little bit changes are there in the fourth year of one or two subjects. Hope this answer helps.

Dear candidate,

Basically there is no big difference between CSE and IT as far as study is concerned, it more or less deals with the same syllabus and subjects but one or 2 subjects added or removed...

Computer Science course is mainly for innovating things which is been studied and to come up with new ideas.

Information Technology is more of using the technology rather than creating new things.

B.tech IT is a slightly cut down version of CSE, so CSE is any time better than IT, but CSE is more difficult to get into than IT & a bit tougher too.

Job companies prefer CSE over IT.

I think both courses are valuable and easy to learn, providing better opportunities in market also,now a days, the requirement in CS and IT is getting increase.......!

Difference in course and core areas:

CSE: Computer Science engineering students study about design, implementation, and management of information system of both software and hardware processes. Students pursuing computer science study: Algorithms and Data Structure, Architecture, Artificial Intelligence and Robotics, Database and Information Retrieval, Human-Computer Communication, Numerical and Symbolic Computation, Operating Systems, Programming Languages and Software Methodology and Engineering.

IT: Information Technology deals with installation, development and implementation of computer systems and applications. Under this stream, students learn the following: Data Structures and Algorithms, Microprocessors and Interfacing, Computer Communication and Networking, Database Systems, Internet Technologies and Applications, Software Engineering etc.

Career scope:

CSE: Job openings for Software professionals is much higher in the corporate sector than in public sector. 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 in India and abroad.

IT: Career options after B.Tech in Information Technology are good. IT Specialists 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.  These professional can get jobs in many public sector firms. Some of the leading public sector firms are BSNL, ISRO, CDIT, CDAC, etc.

Hope the answer is helpful.

Good luck!
