Hello,
It is wrong to assume that there are some specific jobs for computer science engineers in the Army.
Such people are likely to be commissioned in the corps of signals which is responsible for providing communications in the forces, and allied jobs. Knowledge of computers comes handy in such jobs, bit the job is not just restricted only to that.
A hardware engineer may also be commissioned in the corps of EME, which deals with repair of equipment.
I hope this answers your question. If you have any further questions, kindly revert.

You will not be eligible for training at IMA as a women candidate. You will be trained at OTA-Chennai. If you have NCC C certificate, you can directly appear for service selection board by processing application via Directorate of NCC under the Ministry of Defense.
