Dear aspirant,
These two courses which you have mentioned is not about easy or hard but your interest decides on the path you go.
But on the basis of engineering yes you would have some same number of subjects but a bit different in the core subjects. In terms of difficulty it subjects would be slightly be on easier side . But that doesn't mean that computer science branch core would be harder. Its just a personal judgement.
Dear Vidya,
When you talk about engineers companies prefer both IT and CSE students. And there is no best among them, the one with good skill that are relevant to the market scenario.
But the engineering course is more or less same in graduation, with minute changes. And if you have option between IT and CSE then choosing CSE would be better. If you are applying for any college in abroad.
The next part of question which is easy, as I told both are more or less the same in course structure, but generally IT comes on easier side.
Hope this information helps and
All the best.!! :)
