Technical Student Chapters

What is Engineering? Engineering is the use of science and math to design or make things. People who do engineering are called engineers. ¡ They learn engineering at a college or university. Engineers usually design or build things. ¡ Some engineers also use their skills to solve technical problems. ¡

Definition of Engineering by Mary Shaw Creating Cost Effective Solutions ¡ To Practical Problems ¡ By the application of scientific knowledge ¡ Building Things ¡ In service of mankind ¡

Role of Engineering in Society Life before industrial revolution ¡ How machines changed life? ¡ Operating/Using machinery without knowledge (Eg: Car). Who made it possible? Engineering! ¡ Can you perform open heart surgery without knowledge/Skill? ¡

What is CSE?

¡ The most important aspect of Computer Science is problem solving, an essential skill for life. Students study the design, development and analysis of software and hardware used to solve problems in a variety of business, scientific and social contexts.

CSE Versus IT ¡ CSE: Computer science engineers are involved in many aspects of computing, from the design of individual microprocessors, personal computers and supercomputers to circuit designing and writing software that powers them.

¡ IT: Information Technology deals with the use of electronic computers and computer software to store, protect process, transmit and securely retrieve data. IT professionals perform a variety of tasks that range from installing applications to designing complex computer networks and information databases. A new branch called IT was created by Indians in the year 2000 to quench the market hunger. Now-a-days: CSE Vs IT - Hardly any difference

The Dual Nature of Software

How CSE benefits the society? ¡ ¡ ¡ Directly meeting needs Empowering people who are often overlooked Paving the way for a more equitable world Accelerating healthcare progress Education, Communication, Big Data, AI, Self Driving, Prediction, etc. Makes life easier

Future of Software ¡ Software Trend 1: The Mixed Reality (virtual reality + augmented reality) ¡ ¡ Software Trend Intelligence Software Trend (Io. T) Software Trend applications Software Trend 2: Artificial 3: Internet of Things 4: Progressive web 5: Blockchain

Future Trends in Software Trend 6: Language Trends ¡ Software Trend 7: Low Code development ¡ Software Trend 8: Code Quality ¡ Software Trend 9: Cyber security ¡ Software Trend 10: Outsourcing Software Development ¡

Observations Jobs for everyone? No Why? Only 10% are employable Lack of Tech & Communication Skills Need: Skill Knowledge Competency

Why Should Non-CSE/IT Learn Programming? Are you a User? Are you an Engineer? ¡ Are you a Scientist?

Reasons to Learn Programming Can work 10 times faster Automate Tedious Tasks Discover creative Solutions Most important Job Skill of the Future Job Prospects Communicate Effectively With Programmers

Points to Ponder ¡ ¡ Engineers with functional experience and programming skills are always in demand. Example: Writing code for a CNC Machine or CAD Application needs knowledge of Mechanical Engineering and Programming. Software Engineers (Graduates in CSE/IT) have the programming and software development skills but don’t have functional experience in the domain area.
