I have a CS degree. Most universities don't offer a Software Engineering degree. I think you can do well with either one. As you said, you need to make sure you're learning both the theory and the practical side as well.
I finished my Software Engineering degree ik 2015. Right after college, I didn't go to work for big tech, instead I preferred to work for Consulting jobs for next 5 years where I could apply my SE knowledge and sharpen it. So that helped me a lot. 👌
I have a degree in astrophysics, going into Software Engineering feels easy coz I understand why things behave in the physical and now I can used code to fine-tune them.
Let's reverse engineer this thing. I want to build an autonomous flying drone. all by myself. now tell me all that i need to know in order to be able to do that.
An autonomus flying drone? You will need advanced software skills, far beyond the undergraduate level in CS, CE, or SE. On top of that, you will need to understand physics. So you might need an ME degree too. I have an MS in ME and a BS in SE, and I cannot design an autonomous flying drone on my own, not yet. I just need a little more knowledge on the software side. Probably an MS in robotics is where you want to be! Oh wait, did you want to design the microprocessor too? Might need some advanced EE or CE knowledge to go with it!
And moreover I feel like the information you spreading is misleading because what you’ve listed in CS topics are the same topics learned by SE, and the SE topics you’ve listed are topics learned in one course, and basically your non degree software engineer that can’t do the same tasks as a regular SE graduate can(such as implementing a design for a neural network for the company’s need)
I am very comfortable in disclosing stuff. I looked at you website and there is no way I can email you. Social media for me is as good as Covid. Been away social media for years now. What's the best way to be in touch with you?
Both should work. Most of the old managers are from a time where SE wasn't even a thing. SE degrees were only recently offered. Truth is, SE probably better equips you for that kind of job, but managers don't understand it so they might actually look down on SE in favor of CS simply because they have degrees in CS and may have negative preconceived notions about how the degrees differ. Some folks may not realize that SE degrees still require classes on algorithms, for instance.
Don't go into debt for college. I know so many people who never got a job after they graduated with any given degree. Study what is interesting to you, assuming there will be no ROI. Chances of ROI is fair to good.
I'm a CS student and we have Software Engineering class. Sounds great to me because I feel like I should have chosen SE rather than CS. But there's no university in my area that offers SE degree. :(
Don't worry about that! At the end of the day, your degree won't be that crucial for your career path. If you have a passion for SE you only have to build some appropriate projects in that area. Chose your projects wisely to emphasize which direction you want to take and what goals you want to achieve. I wish you the best of luck! :)
@@TechAsad CS creates scientists who build world-leading technologies. Think of the search engines, video game code libraries, and a lot of theoretical back-end knowledge that CS will expose you to.

Hey, to each own, however, if you want to be that scientist who created a next-generation search engine, computer science has you covered 🫶🏽
IT is an extremely broad envelope. Software development falls under the envelope of IT. You can go into Software Development from a generalized IT degree but make sure to take classes focusing on software development, and you may have to study on your own afterwards. Probably not as appealing to a hiring manager as a degree in CS or SE.
Great video. I learned a lot about the differences between Computer Science and Software Engineering and how to approach learning in general. With that being said, I believe that I am a lot more suited for Software Engineering and / or Computer Engineering because I am a lot more interested in learning how to APPLY my knowledge into real world applications and situations. I mean I like learning about SOME theory but if I can't use it in a real world problem or situation then I usually just tune the information out and I become a lot less interested in learning about the topic.
I am currently studying for a CS degree, but we have a good mix between theory and actual software development classes. There are even a few classes on web development as well, which I am currently taking. I've done 3 programming courses already, from the fundamentals, and two intermediate classes (Programming 1 & 2). So far, I am happy with the direction that my classes are headed in. They focus on doing actual programming instead of just theory. Most of us use the programming classes to develop games instead 😄
I went to, and I am going back to Full Sail University for a CS degree with a focus on AI implementation. I finished with an associates in game design (I was 3 months away from getting BS but had a job opportunity that required us to NOT have a bachelor's degree --apprenticeship program -- ) and because of this, I absolutely believe in the power of knowledge of both. CS and SWE can fly together as high as the mind can imagine. Taking that and putting it toward learning how to create/dev games?! Even better.
I attended a university (outside us) for a Science and Systems Engineering degree. It was similar to yours, and all computer related courses were full project experience (also throrical). I recently moved to US, and I thought that CS was the equivalent to my degree, but after some research I just realized that CS students are bare theory, most haven't done 1 project from scratch ... So, if a recruiter ever asks me, I would never compare my degree to CS.
You are awesome! I have CS degree from top tiered University and prepared me theoretically for PhD, I wish I had taken options that would have allowed me to work in industry easily. Also, I just finished the book you had recommended for system design and can't thank you enough 🙏.
My uni offers electives (I think most of the top-tier unis abroad does), ample amount of it, so even if you choose to study CS you can still complete all the extras of software engineering in it, and trust me it will not be too much on your plate because software engineering is more chill so going with CS and doing software engineering units as your major is more likely to land you a job
Brother, you made this video soooo helpful for me! I’m about to apply to colleges and always had the confusion of either getting a degree in CS or SWE. Thank you sooo much for making this video🙏🏾Love from Pennsylvania!
Hi there May I ask you how it went for you? Because I'm willing to apply to uni next year majoring in software engineering so can you give some advices and an idea on how your 2 years went? Thanks in advance
i was studying electrical and electronics engineering when i changed to computer science, i think it's the perfect balance between studying about the software and the hardware with deep knowledge of how everything works in the background, if you are a computer scientist you are also a software engineer, however if you are a software engineer you are NOT a computer scientist. honestly which one to choose depends on how much of a tech enthusiast you are, if you love tech and big money so mush go with CS, if you are only here to do what you have to do and get paid go with software engineering, both will put you in the same place in the end however tasks, projects, and payment may differ depending on what you do. that's my opinion.
Computer science does not work with hardware? I think if you studied computer engineering it would suited you better if you like to work with both the software and hardware part You don’t need to be a computer scientist to feel better it depends on what is important for you Don’t those who have studied computer science and those who have studied software engineering become the same thing since they all work with each other or is there a difference which roles they can have ??
@@teknul89at my university, CS is tied with EE so we actually do work on hardware as a CS major, however i do agree that they’re very similar in job opportunities, especially if you’re interested in programming specifically
@@pt-yt8322 it sounds like in your university it’s a double major where you learn about everything in CS and EE because usually in other universities when your learn CS it’s more on the software side your learn Where EE is kinda more on both Software and Hardware side But yes when it comes to the job they can both work as software engineer or programmer 🧑💻
@teknul89 to add. Computer engineering is if Computer science and EE had a baby . So basically what they are doing in his university is Computer engineering unofficially.
@@mandilakhemaphikana7772It’s a yes and no because Computer Engineering has also their own degree so they don’t do the same as EE or CS does it’s more like 50% EE and 50% CS and in some other universities you can study both CS and EE so that you are taking a double major which I think is what he is doing that’s what it sounds like for me
I’m a SE major, my plan is to just get certificates on top of that and maybe take a coding boot camp after graduating to wrap it all together. I feel I made the right choice for me and am happy with it.
So as far as I've researched on the study plan on both degrees (at least on the majority of universities in the US) ,both degrees take the same courses with the exception that Software Engineering requires you to take some physics and some more calculus than CS.However,other than that I've found they all teach the same principles.When i choose the college I go to the degree used to be called "CS & Software Engineering" but now they've changed the major and it's only called "Computer Sciences".I am not sure if the fact that they got ABET Accreditation made them change the major name but now I'm stuck here with a degree I did not apply for but I have no choice other than keep going(also,the study plan hasn't changed except we now have to take calculus as a requirement).My main doubt is if it's gonna be harder to get a software engineering job now that the major is only called "Computer Sciences" and not longer "CS & Software Engineering" even though the Engineering and Computer Sciences Department belong on the same department.The school i go to is Pensacola Christian College and I chose it over others not only for the pricing but as I said they used to offer a major on both fields as "CS & Software Engineering".Do you think the ABET Accreditation made them change the major name? And do you think this could potentially affect me to get a job as a software developer/sofware engineer? In addition,I have found very few affordable universities that offer Software Engineering as a degree and most of them are very pricey! Is it really worth it to transfer my CS credits once I graduate and get a degree in Software Engineering by taking the remaining courses ? Or it would not really impact in terms of job opportunities? I understand they both have different job roles but in terms of the degree,the courses are almost the same as far as I've seen and you become an actual software engineer once you have earned more experience and work on bigger projects.I would really appreciate anyone's help & feedback so thank you in advance!
I am kind of biased to CS. I think that getting the foundational/theoretical knowledge helped me a ton in my CS degree. The struggle of learning advanced algorithms and understanding computing theory has helped me to LEARN HOW TO LEARN. I believe that I can very quickly apply the topics covered in a Software Engineering degree because of my foundation in CS.
Bro I need some serious suggestion I will soon complete grade 12 and will look into bachelor's degree . About CS I heard that the topics it includes are so much wide and too much and after that it is good for doing specialization in other subjects like data science software engineering etc . But I don't want too much wide range of topics and I don't know whether I will go for specialization after CS at bs level . Should I go for software engineering or Computer science . Your suggestion would be much appreciated 👍
Computer science I think it’s about how machine works in general such as,smart phone ,computers,robot ,cars ,….. ,but software engineering is focusing on building applications .
I don't have a CS degree but working as Software Engineer for around 3 years now. I am thinking about going for a Master's degree now. Any recommendations what sort of courses should be there to make up for those lack in fundamentals alongside degree specialization?
did you find any courses for master level from cs degree.. i want ko know is there is any difference in chossing courses of master level from cs or software engineering..?please let me know
I am BSC in computer science and engineering MSC in computer M.TECH in computer Diploma Engineering in Robotics from china And Special 6 month Electronic Engineering course
I appreciate your work, I'm a graduate in Zoology and I was studying biology as my major since last 8 years but now after completing my 16 year education I want to switch, I always wanted to be in computer science filed but I'm confused like what to choose, to start my journey in the filed of Cs I have to choose between a web design and development degree or a simple computer science degree ( although I have checked the complete course outline of these two from university's web, they have exactly the same course scheme except in 1 semester we'll study few things like mysql, php, etc in web development and we'll study maths and geometry in the Cs course) , both of them are pre-graduate degrees consisting of 2 years time span and after this I want to go for a bachelor's degree of a software engineer or just a bachelor in computer science It'll be really helpful if you could give a hint of what path I should choose
This is a great video. I'm a foundation type of girl, I need to know the root cause of everything. A CS degree is definitely first and Software Engineering right after! Thank you.
I am an Information Technology graduate at a university which slightly tackles the basics of everything but as I went on my third year and fourth year, the curriculum is focused on creating a web-based capstone system. Yes, I agree practical application will surely help you apply the theoretical learnings from the university. Not bragging about this, but I can say I created almost 80% of our project. Yes, it's hard and frustrating but I am reaping the hardwork I put into it, taking the opportunity to apply the theories into practical during our thesis/capstone project, as I am now a freelance developer capable of developing systems on my own from scratch to deployment.
I just finished 12th and am planning to enter IT. What type of math is involved in IT? I was never really a math guy but I took it for all of my years of high school. Right now till I enter a college, I can use the free time to develop my math skills. Also what programming language should I start learning (I have 0 experience in coding), I want to learn a language which helps me learn the basics as well as grow into the complicated parts, if you know what I mean. I know this comment is 2 years old, but your reply will certainly help :)
Can I get a software engineering job by studying computer science? I am currently pursuing a bsc computer science degree from india. Cs is very theoritical and tons of mathematics.
Of course... haven’t seen any job posts that specifically requires a degree in CS or SE they usually just require a degree that have some kind of relevance to the role. You can even have a degree in Math or stats yet you can still be a software engineer...
Sir I am very confused after my 10th I want do deploma in computer science or I will take degree in computer science what should I do sir please gave suggestion or tell me any other course in technology field which is better to earn and for working
I'm a senior software engineer with no degree and if you plan on actually programming, software engineering is what you want. The actually coding you do at the job is much more about software craftsmanship and how best to reduce cost of maintainability. You very very very rarely use a tree or list or need to know how an adder works at the digital level. You can pick all that shit up off an hour long TH-cam video. Comp sci good for high up research positions at tech companies. Other than that both are a waste of time compared to just programming at home and making shit
Do you recommend the book Designing Data Intensive Applications? I heard it's like the holy grail for learning software design, but idk. Also, do you recommend any resources for learning about SOA and Microservice architectures?
@@thatoneuser8600 It's a chicken before the egg question. Most engineers learn this stuff on the job where they get to look at codebases that do these things correctly. Books are great, but honestly I find them much more useful after I have practical experience working on the subjects they are teaching. The KEY is to get hired and work. Working teaches the most. To get hired, you need to be able to program. To program, you must practice. Project euler and hackerrank are all you need for this. Don't understand a concept in the problem? Look it up. Do 1 - 60 in project euler. Do all the interview prep questions in hackerrank. Don't buy the books until YOUR company will buy it for you after you landed that job.
@@nooblejack516 Not true - they require commensurate working experience when a candidate does not have a degree. IE - 4 years of working experience with no TECH degree. I have never seen a job posting for a software position that explicitly required a degree.

What's your first year like? I'm guessing they're covering the basics of software design, such as SOLID, GRASP, TDA, LoD, + other design principles and GoF design patterns? Or something completely different
@@thatoneuser8600 In my SE program which I finished, we learned Gang of Four patterns. We didn't talk about SOLID as an acronym but we talked about those kinds of concepts. The other acronyms not so much. We did take Discrete Math and algorithms, but we didn't go deep into data science concepts.
This was the question that I had during 2012 after my 12th grade and today finally I got the answer. By the way, I left my study after 12th grade(11th and 12th grade Science). I am nothing now if looking about dev or engineering section.
Computer Science and Software Engineering are closely related disciplines in the field of computing but have distinct focuses and career paths. Computer Science is a broad field that encompasses the study of algorithms, data structures, programming languages, computer architecture, theory of computation, artificial intelligence, and more. It emphasizes the theoretical foundations of computing and explores the fundamental concepts that underlie the design and development of computer systems. Computer scientists often engage in research and innovation, working on cutting-edge technologies and pushing the boundaries of what is possible in computing. Software Engineering, on the other hand, is a more applied discipline that focuses on the practical aspects of software development. It involves the systematic design, development, testing, and maintenance of software systems. Software engineers apply engineering principles and methodologies to create reliable, efficient, and scalable software solutions. They often collaborate with stakeholders, such as clients and end-users, to understand their requirements and deliver software that meets their needs. Software engineering also involves project management, quality assurance, and software deployment. While computer science provides a strong theoretical foundation, software engineering bridges the gap between theory and practice by applying computer science principles to real-world software development projects. Both fields are essential for the advancement of technology and rely on each other's expertise. Now, let's address "gildware technologies." It seems that you might be referring to "guildware technologies" or "guilded technologies," as there is no widely known term called "gildware." However, if you are referring to something else, please provide more context. Guildware technologies generally refer to technologies or software platforms that facilitate the creation, management, and collaboration within guilds or communities of people with shared interests or goals. These platforms often provide communication tools, project management features, forums, and other functionalities to enhance collaboration and coordination among guild members. Guildware technologies can be particularly useful in various contexts, such as gaming communities, professional guilds, or hobbyist groups. They enable members to connect, organize events, share knowledge, and collaborate on projects within their respective guilds. These platforms often offer features like real-time messaging, voice chat, file sharing, task assignment, and tracking progress. Examples of guildware technologies include Discord, Guilded, and Slack, which are popular communication and collaboration platforms used by gaming communities and professional guilds alike. These platforms provide a centralized space for guild members to interact, share information, and coordinate activities. Overall, guildware technologies play a significant role in fostering collaboration, community building, and effective communication among guild members, facilitating their shared goals and interests.
I guess It's too late for me now , I didn't have this advice 3, years before I'm stuck in a stupid college which doesn't teach anything rather than theory knowledge, and even the teachers have no practical knowledge..suprisingly the college is on of the top 5 college in the state.
Build projects these theories are the foundation of any applications out there. Take the initiative and learn through application if you think its too late or not worth it to shift to a SE degree... No offense but you should’ve researched on your college and their CS program you could’ve easily seen that it is more theoretical and not a good fit for you.. Either way don’t worry too much you’ll learn how to apply the theories and concepts taught once you get a job. Goodluck!
So I am working for ASML, the largest semiconductor manufacturer. I have a BA in communications, and I just got accepted for a Masters in Software Engineering.

I'm looking for the best university to study this remotely, which ones whould you recommend? Currently I'm a chemical engineer that works on digitalization, supply chain, and automation. Focused on manufacturing, for example implementing SAP and MES. I've took software courses on my own but always feeling that there is something missing, that's why I'm looking for getting the full degree on any of both mentioned here.
I have no degree at all. I've just got an admission to the university but quite confused whether to go for CS or SE since I have no much knowledge about IT , I'm actually just a beginner.
What do you find more fascinating, researching which algorithm is the best, or programming an application? If the former, go CS, if the latter, go SE. Would you rather be a computer generalist than software developer? Go CS. Don't want to do coding much? Go CS. Want to code all the time? Well, either could be fine. As an undergraduate, money making degree, I feel SE is more focused on what you need to be succesful as a software developer. If you actually want to research algorithms for a living, you probably are going to need more than just a BS, you'll want an MS or probably a PhD. Most CS guys with only a BS are going to end up as Software Developers or generalized IT staff, so the theoretical stuff won't be too useful in the day to day, although you can probably take more classes on things like "networking" in a CS degree if you just want to be like a system administrator or something instead of a software developer.
My recommendation as a software engineer is to do a associate's degree in compute science OR software engineering that do a bachelor's degree in the other

CS and SWE can fly together as high as the mind can imagine. Taking that and putting it toward learning how to create/dev games?! Even better.
I attended a university (outside us) for a Science and Systems Engineering degree. It was similar to yours, and all computer related courses were full project experience (also throrical). I recently moved to US, and I thought that CS was the equivalent to my degree, but after some research I just realized that CS students are bare theory, most haven't done 1 project from scratch ... So, if a recruiter ever asks me, I would never compare my degree to CS.
bro not just cs or ce but over all if you look now which subject as a major would you have taken in field of computer ?
I have a CS degree but I feel like I am more of a Software Engineer.
How so?
You are awesome! I have CS degree from top tiered University and prepared me theoretically for PhD, I wish I had taken options that would have allowed me to work in industry easily. Also, I just finished the book you had recommended for system design and can't thank you enough 🙏.
What book?
May I know the book? I'm going to start my bachelor degree next week, and this would help me a lot
What book ???
What book?
My uni offers electives (I think most of the top-tier unis abroad does), ample amount of it, so even if you choose to study CS you can still complete all the extras of software engineering in it, and trust me it will not be too much on your plate because software engineering is more chill so going with CS and doing software engineering units as your major is more likely to land you a job
Thank you..
This is what I've found for many UK universities at least.
@@HashimAziz1 can u name some
this is like my university, UNSW in Australia, I will be doing this
Brother, you made this video soooo helpful for me! I’m about to apply to colleges and always had the confusion of either getting a degree in CS or SWE. Thank you sooo much for making this video🙏🏾Love from Pennsylvania!
Hi there
May I ask you how it went for you? Because I'm willing to apply to uni next year majoring in software engineering so can you give some advices and an idea on how your 2 years went? Thanks in advance
I'm currently a 3rd year software engineering major at ISU. You choose between hardware or theory for a lot of the requirements.
Hey
This video was so relevant to me, I freaked out.
i was studying electrical and electronics engineering when i changed to computer science, i think it's the perfect balance between studying about the software and the hardware with deep knowledge of how everything works in the background, if you are a computer scientist you are also a software engineer, however if you are a software engineer you are NOT a computer scientist.
honestly which one to choose depends on how much of a tech enthusiast you are, if you love tech and big money so mush go with CS, if you are only here to do what you have to do and get paid go with software engineering, both will put you in the same place in the end however tasks, projects, and payment may differ depending on what you do. that's my opinion.
Computer science does not work with hardware?
I think if you studied computer engineering it would suited you better if you like to work with both the software and hardware part
You don’t need to be a computer scientist to feel better it depends on what is important for you
Don’t those who have studied computer science and those who have studied software engineering become the same thing since they all work with each other or is there a difference which roles they can have ??
@@teknul89at my university, CS is tied with EE so we actually do work on hardware as a CS major, however i do agree that they’re very similar in job opportunities, especially if you’re interested in programming specifically
@@pt-yt8322 it sounds like in your university it’s a double major where you learn about everything in CS and EE because usually in other universities when your learn CS it’s more on the software side your learn
Where EE is kinda more on both Software and Hardware side
But yes when it comes to the job they can both work as software engineer or programmer 🧑💻
@teknul89 to add. Computer engineering is if Computer science and EE had a baby . So basically what they are doing in his university is Computer engineering unofficially.
@@mandilakhemaphikana7772It’s a yes and no because Computer Engineering has also their own degree so they don’t do the same as EE or CS does it’s more like 50% EE and 50% CS
and in some other universities you can study both CS and EE so that you are taking a double major which I think is what he is doing that’s what it sounds like for me
I'm an I.T major. For my masters, should I go with Software Engineering?
I’m a SE major, my plan is to just get certificates on top of that and maybe take a coding boot camp after graduating to wrap it all together. I feel I made the right choice for me and am happy with it.
Hi! I am planning of choosing the SE Major but I am uncertain with the job opportunities that it as compare to CS Major or Bachelor degree.
Why would you need a coding bootcamp if you majored in Software Engineering? You didn't learn how to code as part of it?
@@HashimAziz1 experience and hands-on projects
@@olafharoldsonnii4713Why not freelance to get experience instead of going deeper into debt?
@@JDMorris81 my comment was from 8 months ago. My opinion has changed from then. I totally agree with you.
I’m studying software engineering and the first 5 semesters are the same as CS but we have additional courses such as intro to data science
Can I get your number sir if you don't mind?
So as far as I've researched on the study plan on both degrees (at least on the majority of universities in the US) ,both degrees take the same courses with the exception that Software Engineering requires you to take some physics and some more calculus than CS.However,other than that I've found they all teach the same principles.When i choose the college I go to the degree used to be called "CS & Software Engineering" but now they've changed the major and it's only called "Computer Sciences".I am not sure if the fact that they got ABET Accreditation made them change the major name but now I'm stuck here with a degree I did not apply for but I have no choice other than keep going(also,the study plan hasn't changed except we now have to take calculus as a requirement).My main doubt is if it's gonna be harder to get a software engineering job now that the major is only called "Computer Sciences" and not longer "CS & Software Engineering" even though the Engineering and Computer Sciences Department belong on the same department.The school i go to is Pensacola Christian College and I chose it over others not only for the pricing but as I said they used to offer a major on both fields as "CS & Software Engineering".Do you think the ABET Accreditation made them change the major name? And do you think this could potentially affect me to get a job as a software developer/sofware engineer?
In addition,I have found very few affordable universities that offer Software Engineering as a degree and most of them are very pricey! Is it really worth it to transfer my CS credits once I graduate and get a degree in Software Engineering by taking the remaining courses ? Or it would not really impact in terms of job opportunities? I understand they both have different job roles but in terms of the degree,the courses are almost the same as far as I've seen and you become an actual software engineer once you have earned more experience and work on bigger projects.I would really appreciate anyone's help & feedback so thank you in advance!
I’d take them to court and get every penny back, what a liberty. I sincerely hope it works out for you.
Such a great explanation. Better than anything I've found anywhere! Thanks a ton!
I am kind of biased to CS. I think that getting the foundational/theoretical knowledge helped me a ton in my CS degree. The struggle of learning advanced algorithms and understanding computing theory has helped me to LEARN HOW TO LEARN. I believe that I can very quickly apply the topics covered in a Software Engineering degree because of my foundation in CS.
Bro I need some serious suggestion
I will soon complete grade 12 and will look into bachelor's degree .
About CS I heard that the topics it includes are so much wide and too much and after that it is good for doing specialization in other subjects like data science software engineering etc . But I don't want too much wide range of topics and I don't know whether I will go for specialization after CS at bs level .
Should I go for software engineering or Computer science .
Your suggestion would be much appreciated 👍
I'm a CS second year and I'm loving it 😁! The intellectual capabilities is supercharged.
Really?
Which university
Which University do you go to ?
What uni
If you REALLY wanna get into how computers work you'd get a computer engineering degree 😉
Computer science I think it’s about how machine works in general such as,smart phone ,computers,robot ,cars ,….. ,but software engineering is focusing on building applications .
I don't have a CS degree but working as Software Engineer for around 3 years now. I am thinking about going for a Master's degree now. Any recommendations what sort of courses should be there to make up for those lack in fundamentals alongside degree specialization?
did you find any courses for master level from cs degree.. i want ko know is there is any difference in chossing courses of master level from cs or software engineering..?please let me know
I am BSC in computer science and engineering MSC in computer
M.TECH in computer Diploma Engineering in Robotics from china And Special 6 month Electronic Engineering course
I appreciate your work, I'm a graduate in Zoology and I was studying biology as my major since last 8 years but now after completing my 16 year education I want to switch, I always wanted to be in computer science filed but I'm confused like what to choose, to start my journey in the filed of Cs I have to choose between a web design and development degree or a simple computer science degree ( although I have checked the complete course outline of these two from university's web, they have exactly the same course scheme except in 1 semester we'll study few things like mysql, php, etc in web development and we'll study maths and geometry in the Cs course) , both of them are pre-graduate degrees consisting of 2 years time span and after this I want to go for a bachelor's degree of a software engineer or just a bachelor in computer science It'll be really helpful if you could give a hint of what path I should choose
This is a great video. I'm a foundation type of girl, I need to know the root cause of everything. A CS degree is definitely first and Software Engineering right after! Thank you.
I am an Information Technology graduate at a university which slightly tackles the basics of everything but as I went on my third year and fourth year, the curriculum is focused on creating a web-based capstone system. Yes, I agree practical application will surely help you apply the theoretical learnings from the university. Not bragging about this, but I can say I created almost 80% of our project. Yes, it's hard and frustrating but I am reaping the hardwork I put into it, taking the opportunity to apply the theories into practical during our thesis/capstone project, as I am now a freelance developer capable of developing systems on my own from scratch to deployment.
I just finished 12th and am planning to enter IT. What type of math is involved in IT? I was never really a math guy but I took it for all of my years of high school. Right now till I enter a college, I can use the free time to develop my math skills. Also what programming language should I start learning (I have 0 experience in coding), I want to learn a language which helps me learn the basics as well as grow into the complicated parts, if you know what I mean. I know this comment is 2 years old, but your reply will certainly help :)
Can I get a software engineering job by studying computer science? I am currently pursuing a bsc computer science degree from india. Cs is very theoritical and tons of mathematics.
Of course... haven’t seen any job posts that specifically requires a degree in CS or SE they usually just require a degree that have some kind of relevance to the role. You can even have a degree in Math or stats yet you can still be a software engineer...
Sir I am very confused after my 10th I want do deploma in computer science or I will take degree in computer science what should I do sir please gave suggestion or tell me any other course in technology field which is better to earn and for working
I'm a senior software engineer with no degree and if you plan on actually programming, software engineering is what you want. The actually coding you do at the job is much more about software craftsmanship and how best to reduce cost of maintainability. You very very very rarely use a tree or list or need to know how an adder works at the digital level. You can pick all that shit up off an hour long TH-cam video. Comp sci good for high up research positions at tech companies. Other than that both are a waste of time compared to just programming at home and making shit
Do you recommend the book Designing Data Intensive Applications? I heard it's like the holy grail for learning software design, but idk. Also, do you recommend any resources for learning about SOA and Microservice architectures?
@@thatoneuser8600 It's a chicken before the egg question. Most engineers learn this stuff on the job where they get to look at codebases that do these things correctly. Books are great, but honestly I find them much more useful after I have practical experience working on the subjects they are teaching. The KEY is to get hired and work. Working teaches the most. To get hired, you need to be able to program. To program, you must practice. Project euler and hackerrank are all you need for this. Don't understand a concept in the problem? Look it up. Do 1 - 60 in project euler. Do all the interview prep questions in hackerrank. Don't buy the books until YOUR company will buy it for you after you landed that job.
I wouldn't say a waste of time, most companies now are setting the standard for entry lv jobs to have at least a BA.
@@nooblejack516 Not true - they require commensurate working experience when a candidate does not have a degree. IE - 4 years of working experience with no TECH degree. I have never seen a job posting for a software position that explicitly required a degree.
What if i dont know exactly what i want? Just that i probably want a job in the IT sector. i´m starting to get the feeling that if you don´t already know alot about CompSci or SoftEngi there seems to be no way for a beginner to get in. I have 0 clue what i want to do and i dont know all the options that exist, is there any video that covers all of this?
I want to get into It becuse at least in my country Sweden, it seems like a solid career to get into and that i can stay into for my whole life. ofc there are bad parts aswell and that bad companys exist so you might need to look around untill you find a good company that works for me etc.
Im doing BSSE I'm in 1st semester and now want to change it and go to BSCS. Is its better for me or not
I just graduated with a SE degree in WA State. I'm having a hard time getting 5 minutes into a interview due to the employer/recruiter wanting 4-5 years experience.
Any tips or recommendations besides keep applying? I'm still a newbie but feel I have a pretty good grasp in React/Node and those are the jobs I'm applying for.
Are you applying for the right jobs? It's crazy to expect 5 years of experience from someone who just graduated.
Your intro is the best part of your video as I watched your videos for the first time and your intro attracted me to watch complete video and the information was just amazing. Thanks bro for superb information and you will soon cross 100k followers. Best of luck.

If you have a BS degree in CS can you specialize in Software engineers get masters or phd in software engineering ?
Yes
I'm a software engineer and I'm just 17 while studying 12th grade
What skills have you acquired ?
very helpful advice, thank you for the vid!
I'm doing my first year of SE and I'm happy with my choice
What's your first year like? I'm guessing they're covering the basics of software design, such as SOLID, GRASP, TDA, LoD, + other design principles and GoF design patterns? Or something completely different
@@thatoneuser8600 In my SE program which I finished, we learned Gang of Four patterns. We didn't talk about SOLID as an acronym but we talked about those kinds of concepts. The other acronyms not so much. We did take Discrete Math and algorithms, but we didn't go deep into data science concepts.
I’m a software engineer with no software engineering degree. 😂😂😂
How did you learn
This was the question that I had during 2012 after my 12th grade and today finally I got the answer. By the way, I left my study after 12th grade(11th and 12th grade Science). I am nothing now if looking about dev or engineering section.
The content of this channel is really awesome!
Computer Science. There were required software engineering classes that covered the current practices of the time.
It's more hurting for me than him that this legendary channel has only 60k subs
😕
Just wait 1 year.
I have almost finished 12 class and what to be in the IT industry so what is best for me CS or SE
Computer Science and Software Engineering are closely related disciplines in the field of computing but have distinct focuses and career paths.
Computer Science is a broad field that encompasses the study of algorithms, data structures, programming languages, computer architecture, theory of computation, artificial intelligence, and more. It emphasizes the theoretical foundations of computing and explores the fundamental concepts that underlie the design and development of computer systems. Computer scientists often engage in research and innovation, working on cutting-edge technologies and pushing the boundaries of what is possible in computing.
Software Engineering, on the other hand, is a more applied discipline that focuses on the practical aspects of software development. It involves the systematic design, development, testing, and maintenance of software systems. Software engineers apply engineering principles and methodologies to create reliable, efficient, and scalable software solutions. They often collaborate with stakeholders, such as clients and end-users, to understand their requirements and deliver software that meets their needs. Software engineering also involves project management, quality assurance, and software deployment.
While computer science provides a strong theoretical foundation, software engineering bridges the gap between theory and practice by applying computer science principles to real-world software development projects. Both fields are essential for the advancement of technology and rely on each other's expertise.
Now, let's address "gildware technologies." It seems that you might be referring to "guildware technologies" or "guilded technologies," as there is no widely known term called "gildware." However, if you are referring to something else, please provide more context.
Guildware technologies generally refer to technologies or software platforms that facilitate the creation, management, and collaboration within guilds or communities of people with shared interests or goals. These platforms often provide communication tools, project management features, forums, and other functionalities to enhance collaboration and coordination among guild members.
Guildware technologies can be particularly useful in various contexts, such as gaming communities, professional guilds, or hobbyist groups. They enable members to connect, organize events, share knowledge, and collaborate on projects within their respective guilds. These platforms often offer features like real-time messaging, voice chat, file sharing, task assignment, and tracking progress.
Examples of guildware technologies include Discord, Guilded, and Slack, which are popular communication and collaboration platforms used by gaming communities and professional guilds alike. These platforms provide a centralized space for guild members to interact, share information, and coordinate activities.
Overall, guildware technologies play a significant role in fostering collaboration, community building, and effective communication among guild members, facilitating their shared goals and interests.

Hello... I'm a BCA(computer application )student.can i become a Software Engineer by taking BCA..?
please reply
This video is just perfect .
Hope in the future you may consider making a video about Should or Should Not study those degrees on online universities
So which degree will more helpful to be in field of game development
Please reply....
I guess It's too late for me now , I didn't have this advice 3, years before I'm stuck in a stupid college which doesn't teach anything rather than theory knowledge, and even the teachers have no practical knowledge..suprisingly the college is on of the top 5 college in the state.
Build projects these theories are the foundation of any applications out there. Take the initiative and learn through application if you think its too late or not worth it to shift to a SE degree... No offense but you should’ve researched on your college and their CS program you could’ve easily seen that it is more theoretical and not a good fit for you.. Either way don’t worry too much you’ll learn how to apply the theories and concepts taught once you get a job. Goodluck!
you and i have the same desktop wallpaper! what a coincidence
So I am working for ASML, the largest semiconductor manufacturer. I have a BA in communications, and I just got accepted for a Masters in Software Engineering. The school I applied to is more Project-based or hands-on learning (especially because it's online). I was planning to supplement this degree with other CS courses I can get for free through my company. I'm nervous since this is a new field for me..I am computer literate and I feel pretty comfortable with learning on computers. Is this a sound path, in your opinion?
Which schools offer master in software engineering
Well I'm still confused between computer science and computer engineering? Are they same, if not, which one is good!
After 100th we can join for CSE course
Love from Pakistan Thanks for the information ❤

Want to design electronic circuits, think a lot about transistors, etc.? Go CE. Want to write software programs? Go SE. Not sure? CE is the more broad degree.
Today my confusion is finally over
Finishing my SWE degree. Getting a masters in CS. You didn’t mention the most important thing. Make sure the program is STATE accredited. For-profit schools may even form their own accreditation boards to pretend to be accredited.

I'm looking for the best university to study this remotely, which ones whould you recommend?
Currently I'm a chemical engineer that works on digitalization, supply chain, and automation. Focused on manufacturing, for example implementing SAP and MES. I've took software courses on my own but always feeling that there is something missing, that's why I'm looking for getting the full degree on any of both mentioned here.
I have no degree at all. I've just got an admission to the university but quite confused whether to go for CS or SE since I have no much knowledge about IT , I'm actually just a beginner.
In the same boat
you figured out?
What do you find more fascinating, researching which algorithm is the best, or programming an application? If the former, go CS, if the latter, go SE. Would you rather be a computer generalist than software developer? Go CS. Don't want to do coding much? Go CS. Want to code all the time? Well, either could be fine. As an undergraduate, money making degree, I feel SE is more focused on what you need to be succesful as a software developer. If you actually want to research algorithms for a living, you probably are going to need more than just a BS, you'll want an MS or probably a PhD. Most CS guys with only a BS are going to end up as Software Developers or generalized IT staff, so the theoretical stuff won't be too useful in the day to day, although you can probably take more classes on things like "networking" in a CS degree if you just want to be like a system administrator or something instead of a software developer.
I study IT. We also had lots of Math, Discrete Math, Linear Algebra, Data Structures and Algorithms, Programming Language classes.
Hi utsav, kindly though urgently make a video on "future of programming after github copilot" and cautions of pursuing it
My recommendation as a software engineer is to do a associate's degree in compute science OR software engineering that do a bachelor's degree in the other
Utsav always dropping the knowledge! I’m in my second year of computer science at cc but San Jose state has both degree options so was thinking about this. thanks for clarifying that I want to continue the C.S route
Best of luck!
@@EngineeringwithUtsav sir computer science is better than software engineering
does anyone know what Business IT is caused I missed Computer sciencoes anyone know what Business IT is caused I missed Computer science and they recommended me to Business IT any help?
Software engineering > Computer science
More practical & focused
so on your career path what degree did you get?
Everyone: CSE vs SWE
Me: IT
