No, computer Science engineering is not as difficult as compared to other engineering fields. More or less computer Science engineering is almost same to the other engineering fields because of the overlapping syllabus of CSE with IT branch and software engineering branch and some of the subjects in CSE also overlaps with electronics communication engineering and electrical engineering. In India, for the first year, the syllabus of engineering is almost the same for every branch there can only be a difference in labs of core subjects. Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) is an academic programme at some universities that combines aspects of both computer Science and computer engineering programmes. Computer Science programmes typically centers primarily around theory and software, with only some hardware, upper division courses tend to allow a lot of freedom to specialise in software and theory related areas (e.g. algorithms, artificial intelligence, cryptography/security, graphics/visualization, numerical and symbolic computing, operating systems/distributed processing, software engineering).
