hi,

bachelor of technology course in computer science engineering or Information technology is of 4 years duration. however the first year syllabus is same for both of the stream, computer science engineering includes software engineering, programming concept, hardware engineering , digital electronics etc. however Information technology syllabus is limited to programming and software engineering. so for students who want to remains at software engineering only may go for IT stream, in case you want to do further study and research after b.tech you should take CSE since it has wide research application.

however both of the stream has excellent career opportunity in India and Abroad.
