Computer Science
and Engineering

Computer science or computing science (abbreviated CS or

CompSci) is the scientific and practical approach to computation
and its applications. A computer scientist specializes in the theory
of computation and the design of computational systems. As a
discipline, computer science spans a range of topics from
theoretical studies of algorithms and the limits of computation to
the practical issues of implementing computing systems in
hardware and software.Usual tasks involving computer engineers
include writing software for automating the day to day tasks.

Information
Technology

Information technology (IT) is the application of computers and

telecommunications equipment to store, retrieve, transmit and
manipulate data, often in the context of a business or other
enterprise. The term is commonly used as a synonym for
computers and computer networks, but it also encompasses other
information distribution technologies such as television and
telephones

Software

Software engineering (SE) is the application of a systematic,

Engineering

disciplined, quantifiable approach to the design, development,

operation, and maintenance of software, and the study of these
approaches; that is, the application of engineering to software. In
layman's terms, it is the act of using insights to conceive, model
and scale a solution to a problem

Mathematics and
Computing

It provides a fusion of mathematics with computer science and

financial engineering. The curriculum is designed to provide
students with in-depth theoretical background and practical
training in computer science, numerical computing and
mathematical finance. Graduates of this programme will be ready
for careers in software industries, financial institutions and
government organizations or to pursue research

Electronics and
Communication

Electronics and communication engineering course give enormous

job opportunities in electronics and software companies. All

Engineering

electronic devices need software interface to run and come with

one other or other device controlling programs architected and
developed by electronics and communication engineering. It also
gives great opportunities for research and development, as
everyday consumer need new devices to support them in daily life

Instrumentation and Instrumentation engineering is a specialised branch of electrical

Control

and electronics engineering. It primarily focuses on the principle

and operation of measuring instruments, which are used in the
design and configuration of automated systems. Instrumentation
and control engineering requires sound knowledge of
mathematics, physics, electronics, chemistry and process control.
Instrumentation is the technology of creating, constructing
and?maintaining the measuring and control devices and systems
found in manufacturing plants and research institutions. The
discipline is also the basis of mechatronics and robotics
engineering.

Electronics and
Electrical Engg.

Electrical and electronics engineers are involved in a wide variety

of technology ranging from huge global positioning systems which
can pinpoint the location of a moving vehicle to gigantic electrical
power generators. These engineers are responsible for designing,
developing, testing as well supervising the production of electrical
and electronic equipment and machinery. Broadcast and
telecommunication systems, electric motors, controls of
machinery, lights and wiring in building complexes, vehicles,
aircraft, radar and navigation systems, power generation, control
and transmission devices which are used by electric utilities are all
examples of equipment built by these engineers. They may also
work in fields which relate to computers and IT. However, those
engineers who deal exclusively with computer hardware are called
computer hardware engineers- an engineering specialty with is
discussed separately in the Handbook.

Electrical
Engineering

Electrical engineering is a field of engineering that generally deals

with the study and application of electricity, electronics, and
electromagnetism. This field first became an identifiable
occupation in the latter half of the 19th century after
commercialization of the electric telegraph, the telephone, and
electric power distribution and use. It now covers a wide range of
subfields including electronics, digital computers, power
engineering, telecommunications, control systems, RF engineering,
and signal processing.

Mechanical
Engineering

Mechanical Engineering includes design, manufacture, installation

and operation of engines, machines, robotics, heating & cooling
systems and manufacturing processes. Mechanical Engineering
includes design, manufacture, installation and operation of
engines, machines, robotics, heating & cooling systems and
manufacturing processes.In this profession, you will be responsible
for designing and developing machines right from supersonic
fighter jets to bicycles and toasters which can be extremely
challenging and fulfilling, requiring analytical skills together with
an ability to work in a team you must love machines and be
comfortable working with tools!

Civil Engineering

Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals

with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and
naturally built environment, including works like roads, bridges,
canals, dams, and buildings.Civil engineering is the oldest
engineering discipline after military engineering,and it was defined
to distinguish non-military engineering from military engineering.It
is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines including
environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, geophysics,
geodesy, control engineering, structural engineering,
biomechanics, nanotechnology, transportation engineering, earth
science, atmospheric sciences, forensic engineering, municipal or
urban engineering, water resources engineering, materials
engineering, coastal engineering,surveying, and construction
engineering.Civil engineering takes place on all levels: in the public
sector from municipal through to national governments, and in the
private sector from individual homeowners through to
international companies.

Engineering
Mathematics

Engineering mathematics is a branch of applied mathematics that

concerns itself with mathematical methods and techniques that are
typically used in engineering and industry. Along with fields like
engineering physics and engineering geology (both of which may
belong in the wider category engineering science), engineering
mathematics is an interdisciplinary subject motivated by engineers'
needs both for practical, theoretical and other considerations
outwith their specialization, and to deal with constraints to be
effective in their work.

Metallurgical
Engineering

Metallurgical Engineering is a broad field that deals with all sorts

of metal-related areas. The three main branches of this major are
physical metallurgy, extractive metallurgy, and mineral processing.
Physical metallurgy deals with problem solving: you?ll develop the
sorts of metallic alloys needed for different types of manufacturing
and construction. Extractive metallurgy involves extracting metal
from ore. Mineral processing involves gathering mineral products
from the earth?s crust.

Metallurgical engineering is an offshoot of engineering

that deals with the discipline of chemical and physical
behavior of metallic elements and inter-metallic
compounds. It is involved with the principles of mix
metals or alloys and everything related to them.
Metallurgical engineering is everything about metals and
their properties. Metallurgical engineering is split up into
3 branches. They are specifically, physical metallurgy,
extractive metallurgy and mineral processing. Physical
metallurgy deals with the development of metallic alloys
to be used by the assorted industries for numerous
express purposes.
