Introduction to Computer Science and Engineering
Computer Science Engineering encompasses a variety of topics that are related to computation like analysis of algorithms, programming languages, programme design, software and computer hardware.
Computer Science engineering has its roots in electrical engineering, mathematics and electronics. In the past computer science was taught as a part of mathematics or engineering but today it has emerged as a separate engineering field.
Few lines about B.Tech/BE Computer Science and Engineering
B.Tech/BE Computer Science Engineering (CSE) is a 4-years undergraduate course, that is divided into 8 semesters. The course aims to give the practical and theoretical knowledge of computer hardware and software. The course is the comprehensive study of computer application and system. The course deals with the designing and developing computer software and hardware processes.
The course imparts detailed understanding of the programming languages, digital and analogue electronics, networking and telecommunication, etc. The course trains the students on various skills and expertise in computer software and hardware areas.
Eligibility for B.Tech/BE
The students who have completed their PUC or 10+2 with any of the three core subjects such as Physics/Chemistry/Mathematics/Computer Science/Biotechnology/Electronics/Biology with a 50% aggregate marks from recognised board are eligible to apply for B.Tech/BE Computer Science Engineering.
Admission Procedures
The students with relevant qualifications can join B.Tech/BE Computer Science Engineering courses by two modes. The first one is Merit based admission and the second one is Direct admission.
Let’s discuss in detail
Merit Admission
The students who are interested to join B.Tech/BE CSE course should appear for CET/COMED- K/JEE or any other institutional-based entrance exams and undergo counselling to choose their desired colleges for merit seats. The engineering college allotts the merit seats to the students according to their rankings and marks obtained by them in their entrance exams and marks scored in PUC or 10+2.
There are two types of counselling for the eligible students
Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) Counselling
The students who are interested to join the government engineering colleges and other engineering colleges affiliated to the government should undergo the counselling procedures of Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA). The students who intend to join for the merit seats under government quota are required to complete the counselling procedures and join for the B.Tech/BE CSE course in their chosen colleges. The Engineering colleges under the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA) are affiliated to the Visveswaraya Technological University (VTU).
