Computer Science and Engineering

Hi.

From the official curriculum and programme description, the languages include:

C — “Programming in C” appears in Semester 1. 

Python — there is a dedicated “Python programming + lab” in Semester 2. 

Likely C+ / Java / other languages — the general CSE programme page lists that graduates are trained in “Python, Java, C+, JavaScript” among others. 

So minimally, there are at least three languages (C, Python, plus C+/Java from general CSE curriculum) taught. According to some sources, students learn up to 5 or more languages including JavaScript — so the “kinds of languages” count might be 4–5 or slightly more.

1. At what age does your son have to start coaching for IIT? 

It has three perfect points of entry, depending on the speed of your child:

• Option A: Enter in Class 11 (Most widespread and not less than enough)
  
  The majority of IIT toppers start coaching when they are in Class 11.
  
  Coaching Class 11 -12 (2-year program) is just sufficient to crack JEE Main and Advanced.
  
  This leaves Class 910 free to construct basics and score highly with the boards.

• Option B: Major in Class 10 (Early foundation - optional)
  
  Beneficial in case your son is interested in physical sciences ahead of his age in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics.
  
  Assist in making Class 11 lighter since JEE syllabus is voluminous.
  
  Only to be recommended when he is really interested and able to manage additional study.

• Option C. Choice: Begin in Class 9 (Foundation course- only when necessary)
  
  The foundation batches primarily enhance the following:
  
  Math logic
  
  Science basics
  
  Speed + accuracy
  
  Not a requirement for all students.
  
  Good depending on how much your son is either highly motivated or in basics.
  
  Summary:
  It suffices to begin coaching for JEE in Class 11.
  The 9-10 class should be about clarity of concepts, NCERT power and problem-solving ability development.
  
  2. Which Exit Exam Do you require to take to be able to study Computer Science in IIT?
  
  To secure an admission in Computer Science Engineering (CSE) in any IIT, your son has to pass:
  
  Step 1: JEE Main
  
  Conducted by NTA
  
  NITs, IIITs and JEE Advanced qualification:Used.
  
  Step 2: JEE Advanced
  
  Conducted by IITs
  
  Only JEE Advanced rank is used to get admissions to IIT.
  
  Competition level:
  
  The most sought after branch is CSE: it takes very high rank:
  
  For IIT Bombay CSE → AIR under 70–100
  
  IIT Delhi CSE → AIR under ~200
  
  Newer IITs → AIR 1500–4000
  
   What Should Your Son Do Now (Action plan 9)?
  
  Enhanced Math (number systems, geometry, algebra)
  
  Read NCERT Science in depth
  
  The problem solving of Olympiad or NTSE level.
  
  Control screen time and create study routines.

In the recent placement season, Chandigarh University saw 3750 engineering students getting selected. More than 240 companies came to campus and this count grew by 30 perscent from the last year. There was also a 70 percent rise in core branch companies, which showed more interest in fresh students. The total offers increased by 60 percent which showed that many firms wanted to hire more students. Around 500 companies gave packages above 5 LPA and more han 100 companies offered above 10 LPA. Students even reached an international packages of 1.7 crore and a national package of 54.75 LPA. The numbrs speak in a vry simple way and make the CSE outcome look strong.
