Hello,

Both Computer Science and Engineering and Electrical and Communication Engineering offer excellent, high-paying jobs from a tier-1 college; the better option depends on your personal interest and aptitude in either software or hardware.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello there,

CSE (computer science engineering) is a branch of engineering . Candidates pursue both undergraduate and postgraduate in CSE from tier 1 colleges. The course objective is to learn programming, algorithms, data structure, operating system etc. Candidates with a CSE degree have a broad range of career options, including Software Developer, CSE, Web developer etc.

ECE ( Electronic and Communication engineering) is also a branch of engineering. It teaches students about the process and design involved in development of electronic communication system. Just like CSE it is also available at both undergraduate and postgraduate level in Tier 1 colleges. Candidates can pursue jobs in the field of Electronics Engineer, Systems Engineer, Hardware Engineer etc.

Here is the link attached from thr official website of Careers360 which will provide you with complete comparison between CSE and ECE branch of engineering. The comparison is based on different factors like scope, courses , fees etc. Hope it helps!
