COMPUTER SCIENCE ENGINEERING

What will you become

One of the most sought after courses amongst engineering students, Computer Science Engineering (CSE) is an academic programme which integrates the field of Computer Engineering and Computer Science. The programme, which emphasises the basics of computer programming and networking, comprises a plethora of topics. The said topics are related to computation, algorithms, programming languages, program design, computer software, computer hardware, etc.

Computer science engineers are involved in many aspects of computing, from the design of individual microprocessors, personal computers, and supercomputers to circuit designing and writing software that powers them.

Computer Science Engineering: Eligibility Criteria

The basic eligibility requirement to pursue a Computer Science Engineering programme at the UG and PG level is:

• Undergraduate (UG): Aspirants’ should have passed the Class 10+2 exam from a recognized board with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as core subjects. Besides this candidates’ should also have secured minimum aggregate marks of 60% in the above subjects combined.

• Postgraduate (PG): Aspirants must have completed a BTech degree in the same specialization with a passing percentage in aggregate of the subjects studied at the degree level.
