Specialisations Available


Computer Science / IT Difference between Computer Science

& Information Technology streams?

IT focuses on languages and programming

with little coverage of hardware and

networks while CS covers hardware and

networks in a little more detail

Scope: Most coveted specialization

because of high demand for computer

engineers

Subjects covered include Programming

Languages, Information Systems, Algorithm

Design, Artificial Intelligence, Computer

Networks

Organizations you can work for –


Electronics vs Electrical: Electrical engineering deals with

large-scale electrical systems such as power transmission and

motor control, whereas electronic engineering deals with the

study of small-scale electronic systems including computers

and integrated circuits

Scope: Electronics more popular than electrical

Subjects covered -
