CSE/IT

Hi
I'd like to know the difference between Computer Science Engeneering and Information Technology.
  

Top answer

Computer Science Engineering is all about how computers work; the mechanics and electronics of computers, and the creation of computer programmes. IT is about working with computers, learning how to use (and not create) software, and applying computer technology to realistic situations. For example: an IT consultant would hire a computer engineer to design fax modem software to replace hardware faxes within an organisation's offices.
