Hi aspirant,

CSE or Computer Science Engineering is considered to be the core branch of computers. It consists of learning programming languages and computer networking. This course gives deep knowledge about computers in almost every aspects. It also involves learning computer language like binary codes and logic gates. It includes both hardware and software related ideas. This is the most common course offered by most of the colleges.

CSIT or Computer Science and Information technology is considered to be a sub branch of CSE. It has similar subjects and curriculum as CSE. This course is more about software than hardware though. Subjects like machine learning, Artificial Intelligence are involved in this course.

Career opportunities are higher for CSE than CSIT. As, most of the companies prefer a student with CSE background since they have more depth about systems both hardware as well as software. So,  I would recommend you to take CSE since even I am pursuing the same course currently and it is really good.
