The BTech CSE syllabus differs on the basis of the college offering the course. Every college follows a particular coursework pattern set by the college committee. Though the subjects might vary, the overall conceptual framework is more or less similar for students to get hold of the important concepts of the CSE field.

The syllabus includes core subjects, elective subject choices, practical lab work, workshops, and a final year research project.

The core subjects covered in an MSc in IT program are: Computer Simulation and Modelling, Advanced Computer Networks, Image Processing, and Advanced Database Systems in the 1st year. For the 2nd year, Information Security, Artificial Intelligence, Distributed Computing, and Computer Vision subjects are included in the curriculum.

The BTech CSE syllabus is incomplete without regular lab classes and internship programs because of the importance of programming, software development, and AI and ML knowledge required in the CSE field, which cannot be taught only through theory classes.

Premier institutes often collaborate with leading industrial partners to provide their students with the best internship exposure and training opportunities, which may act as an entry point to excellent earning opportunities later.

Both are popular job roles, as per the World Economic Forum report. The key differences between the two are as follows:

• The Data Analyst collects relevant data from various sources to filter and analyze it. The data scientist gathers sizable amounts of structured and unstructured data while performing data mining.
• Education: To become a data analyst, you can apply with a Bachelor's degree in math, Statistics or a related field. Data scientists typically pursue a master's Diploma or degree in data Science.
• Salary: The salary of a data scientist is usually higher than that of a data analyst. According to global estimates, a data scientist can earn around $100,000 per year, whereas a data analyst can earn around $70,000.

Based on your skills and relevant experience in the industry, as an MSc IT postgraduate, you can become a Machine Learning Architect, IoT Solutions Architect, Cloud Engineer, Data Scientist, or Big Data Engineer. These are some of the top-paying job profiles nowadays in the IT sector, offering an average salary package of INR 15 LPA in India.
