Reply soon..............

it depends on the university syllabus.

broadly
CSE is core software whereas
IT is mixture of s/w and h/w.

Currently the scope is more of IT, but it hardly matters which of the two branches u choose as companies come for both these branches equally.

hsnayvid, its actually the converse.
CSE has a major portion of hardware, i.e, Electronics whereas IT is entirely software aspect of computing with networking.

CSE - Hardwares = ITY

And wat basic knowledge is necessary 4 study CSE & IT?? One of my frnd told PHYS.+MATHS are more important 4 CSE, and STATICS, ECONOMICS & COMMUNICATION skill for IT, is it true??

give preference to CSE over IT in councelling forum.Personal suggestion.And before applying to any college get conform that branch is affilated to AICTE.

Many colleges have AICTE affilation of only 2-3 branchs but run 6-7 branchs.

Which university are you talking about?

I am doing my IS (same as IT) under VTU in Bangalore. Note that here under CET counselling IT is Instrumentation Technology and IS is Information Science.

Currently, in my college there are more students in CS department (nearly double that of the IS department). And obiviously, the students placed are more for CS though the percentage placement is almost same for both branches.

But academically, IS average performance is better than CS in my college.

Till 4th Semester there are no differences in the syllabus for both the branches.

If you have a choice take CS as it has a wider acceptance and following than IS or IT, which is a relatively new branch.
Also for higher studies, CS student has more choices while selecting the specific field (like through GATE).

Basic knowledge is same for all engineering fields- 10+2 any branch (Computers, Economics, Electronics, Biology). In my case only the CET rank helps in choosing the college and branch, so perform well in the entrance/competetive exams(like JEE,AIEEE).

Well in the intial year there is Physics, Maths, Chemistry, and a bit of all the engineering branches. Its just an extension of high school and you have a chance to get really high scores (>90%) which help in boosting your final aggregate.

But after the 1st year you get into your field (computers) with maths for 1 more year (common for all branches in my university).

Job propects are the same for both.

HI,
I completed my B.Tech Last year in CSE. from my experience all I can say is that CSE is derived from Electronics and is somewhat Geeky in nature with subjects like Algorithm and Basic Electronics. IT is generally market driven and caters to the need of current market demand and hence provides better job option but a lesser growth potential than CSE.

Cheers
Shivendra

thanks for the correction!

here in PTU there are two trades..
1. CE
2. CSE

Wat is the difference between these two....
One of the college is having both trades as separate ones...
