what are the difference between computer science engineering and information science and engineering?

The major  difference between both these field is that IT deals with the application of computing technology to real life processes, while, Computer Science deals with the science that facilitates these applications. To make it short and simple, Computer Science is the creation of software and hardware by using different programming skills. On the other hand, IT is just the selection of the proper software or hardware for the task.

Difference in course and core areas:

CSE: Computer Science engineering students study about design, implementation, and management of information system of both software and hardware processes. Students pursuing computer science study: Algorithms and Data Structure, Architecture, Artificial Intelligence and Robotics, Database and Information Retrieval, Human-Computer Communication, Numerical and Symbolic Computation, Operating Systems, Programming Languages and Software Methodology and Engineering.

IT: Information Technology deals with installation, development and implementation of computer systems and applications. Under this stream, students learn the following: Data Structures and Algorithms, Microprocessors and Interfacing, Computer Communication and Networking, Database Systems, Internet Technologies and Applications, Software Engineering etc.

Hello nagarjun
Computer science and information technology both are the cources related to the b tech engineering.The difference between these courses is negligible almost both are same.Both related to software technology.You also have the same subjects for both the cources.
Thank you

Hello Nagarajan, Greetings!

CSE is related to the core concepts of computer science and IT deals with the applications of computer science.

But in the actual practice, especially in India both are almost same. Out of 50 odd subjects that you study over the 4 years of engineering, 45 are bound to common between these two streams, give or take a few.

The difference is usually in subjects that will not matter unless you choose to do MS/PhD in one of those subjects later.

Also, placement of both streams is almost same in all colleges.

Thank you, best of luck.
