The differences between computer science and information technology are the following-
1. Computer science
Computer science refers to the study of both software and hardware and it tell us about the theoretical
and practical implementation of mathematical formulations and technologies. It provide us knowledge
about various field like networking, processors and data base etc.
Software engineering
Software Engineering on the other hand refers to the study of software which tell us about how
Software is formed and about the processes involved in the formation of Software .It is basically known
as Software Engineering because it applies the principles of Engineering in order to create a software.
2. Computer science
Computer science involves the study of both principles and the use of computers which usually covers
theoretical and practical approaches.
Software engineering
Software Engineering majorly defines the architecture and structural properties of Materialistic
Engineering, Thermodynamics and Computer Organization Architecture etc.
3. Computer science
Computer science is basically formed with the collection of Computer Engineering, Computer Science,
Information system, Information Technology and Software engineering .
Software engineering
Software engineering applies all the standards and principles of Engineering to design, develop,
maintain, test and evaluate computer software which is also known as life cycle of Software
Development.
4. Computer science
Software engineering
5.computer science
Students studying Computer Science study the concepts of various subjects like Mathematics, Electrical
engineering, Physics and Management Information system.
Software engineering
Software engineers are programmers who perform various quality assurance techniques in order to test
the general behavior of software.
6. Computer science
It is not a structural process as everything is to be done in a process and requires proper study before
executing.
Software engineering
It is a structural process of checking, verifying, finding the errors and bugs according to the need of
software and then provide a solution for removing that bug .
7. Computer science
Computer Science involves areas of study which are Networking, Artificial Intelligence, Data Base
Systems etc.
Software engineering
Software Engineering involves some areas of study which are Software Development, Software Testing
and Quality Assurance.
8. Computer science
Software engineering
Software engineering has not compulsory project management but knowledge of project management
is a plus.
9. Computer science
Software engineering
It majorly concern to apply engineering for the creation, maintenance, and designing of software in
order to build different products.
Computer science and software engineering may share some overlapping commonalities, however, the
principles behind each field of study can offer several differences those are discussed above.
