One of my friends shared his experience of being a student of IT in SOE. His first choice was CS during registration but he was given IT due to his rank. Initially, he missed CS and remained worried about being in a different branch. But he finally understood that IT was better than CS. 

The following points are based on his experience at the campus:

  • The faculty members at CS are very strict when compared to IT.
  • The administration level is also managed at IT. You will experience a lot of hassle in CS even if you want a sign on any application.
  • The syllabus of IT is comparatively better than CS.
  • Speaking of IT & CS in SOE, there is also a difference in the way both these courses are managed by the faculties. Both have amazing and experienced faculties taking care of the subjects and therefore it will not be fair to prefer one over another. 
  • This is naturally because of the difference in subjects both the branches have and a different approach is needed for the faculties to explain them to the students.

It is also suggested by many seniors and experienced friends that you take a closer and detailed look at the placements of every year for both these branches at CUSAT before taking the call. There is always a slight difference in the placement every year depending on the industrial, market requirements, and interests of the students. 

The following table shows the placement statistics for the 2020 academic year at CUSAT:

Getting in touch with the students, faculty, and college staff is a good way to understand both the branches better and closer. Remember that you should not completely rely on your friends’ or seniors’ opinionated suggestions.
