what is the difference between computer engineering and computer science. also between computer engineering and Information technology (IT). which branch has better placements in NITs.

Dear,

CSE(Computer Science Engineering) is bachelor's in Computer Science Engineering. It basically deals with the core subjects like programming, design and development of computers. It has specialisation too like CSE with Cyber Security, CSE with Artificial Intelligence, which gives you an edge over basic Computer Science courses that are listed below.

Computer Science is a branch of computer which includes study of computer as well, algorithmic processes, computational machines and computation , its build, little bit programming. The courses in Computer science are:

• BCA (Bachelor's in Computer Applications)
• Bsc. Computer Science

These have almost similar syllabus to study with minor changes here and there, also depends on the university you are enrolled in.

Moreover, Information Technology (IT) includes the study of latest technologies majorly but it also covers programming languages. It covers the surface level subjects.

Whereas Computer Science Engineering (CSE) basically includes the study of programming languages, design of computers. It covers the core subjects like networking, database.

And, NIT (National Information Technology) that offers great placement are-

• National Institute of Technology, Surathkal
• National Institute of Technology, Warangal

According to 2020 drive, CSE has recorded 100% placements with highest package of Rs 43.33 LPA in NIT, Warangal.

Also, NIT Surathkal offers competitive placements in CSE (Computer Science Engineering).

Hope this helps.

All the Best!!
