Hey Vartik Sri Vastava,

Both the branches has great future you can go with both of them

Definitely yes, they are completely different than each other. Computer science is defined as “the study of the principles and use of computers.” While information technology is defined as “the study or use of systems (especially computers and telecommunications) for storing, retrieving, and sending information.”. While IT and CS degrees can lead to similar jobs, the differences between the two are quite pronounced. IT professionals should enjoy installing computer systems, using software and maintaining networks and databases, while computer scientists should enjoy mathematics and software design. They have different careers and different work environment, each is unique in one thing than the other. You need to identify which one is your career to go on its track. There are things in common which you might take in the beginning of your study if you feel confused or not determined and later on you can decide which one you need to continue in. computer science careers are the following (but not limited to):

· Software applications developer. Daily duties: ..

· Computer systems analyst. Daily duties:

· Computer systems engineer. Daily duties:

· Network systems administrator. Daily duties:  · Database administrator. Daily duties: · Business intelligence analyst. Daily duties:

· Web developer.

· Computer programmer.

While information technology careers are:

1. Computer systems analyst

2. Information security analysts

3. Computer user support specialists

4. Computer network support specialists

All the best!
